Hello my beautiful readers!

It has been such a long time since you've heard from me and for that I am deeply sorry. It was never my attention to leave this story in the state that it is in, but, as you've probably heard a million times from other authors, life gets in the way. Uploading to fan fiction unfortunately does not count as one of the classes necessary for me to complete my B.A in English. Before moving forward, I would like to garner some thoughts and opinions from you, my audience, in order to give this series the time and content that it deserves. This is a story in which I am truly passionate about. I want it to succeed and I want to see it through. I also want it to play out and I want these characters to move forward and see the rest of the Star Wars films. Moving forward, I think that it's only fair to you if I come clean and express as to why this is a story that I created and left in the dust. I am constantly overwhelmed with PM's from you guys asking me where I am and you deserve an explanation. I'm really struggling to write this guys. I sit down to write and I just can't. I've recently come to a conclusion as to why this is happening and I would like to share this with you, I have such a lack of interest towards Attack of the Clones. Shocking, I know.

To my OG readers, you know that my first draft of this story began with The Phantom Menace. Once beginning that story, in a similar fashion, I quickly changed the movie in order to create the best content possible. At the time I believed that Attack of the Clones was somewhat integral for these characters to see in order to properly move on with the rest of the story. During the time of my first story, fan fiction was going through, what I like to call, the purge. My story was deleted due to its content. Out of the kindness of my heart (and belief that this is a story that needs to be told) I decided to re-upload with some changes - the biggest one being my swapping of the films. Some of you know this and some of you do not. This is just something that I thought a majority of you would like to know in order to gain some background on my series. With that being said I would like to offer a proposal to you, my readers.

In order to give you all the best experience possible I would like to give this story my all. This is something that I unfortunately cannot do with the set up I gave myself and plays a huge role in my lack of eagerness to this story. I would like to change the film from Attack of the Clones to Revenge of the Sith. Some of you may be asking, "why don't you just start with A New Hope?" and the answer is very simple: I believe that these characters need the knowledge discovered from Revenge of the Sith in order to move on to the original trilogy. At one point I believed that Attack of the Clones played a part in this discovery as well, but I have come to realize that it really doesn't. Attack of the Clones consists of a lot of content that I just don't see as necessary for my storyline. If it were decided to switch the movies, I could always come back and write a story for Watching the Attack of the Clones after I finish with Return of the Jedi.

Ultimately, I am asking for you all to voice your opinions. Comment on the story, PM me, whatever you'd like to do to make your opinion known. If the majority have no issue with me swapping out the movies, I will leave this story as it is and simply create one for Revenge of the Sith. This will allow you to reader the first two chapters of this story whenever you'd like as well as gaining another. I truly believe that if I were to swap out these movies the story would be completed much, much, faster. However, if the majority believes that I should finish Attack of the Clones before moving on to Revenge of the Sith, I will do just that. So please let me know how you feel about this. I'll even create a poll on my profile for you all to vote at if that's what you would like, but ultimately I am more likely to see the reviews and PM's. Also the reviews and PM's allow for you to express your thoughts in a detailed manner - something I would really appreciate.

Much love,

Itinerariam-Maraununtium
