Hello, everyone.

I know it's been a while, and I don't really know how many people are reading/sticking around this story, but I felt like it may be best if I made an update.

I'm really, truly sorry that I haven't said anything in such a long time. I probably should have made an update earlier but I never had the chance to do so. I... might have mentioned that I'm sick in earlier notes? I'm not sure if it got deleted or not when I cleaned up the older chapters... but my health had kind of taken a nosedive since the start of the year, and I've been in and out of hospitals since then.

Unfortunately, I don't get a whole lot of access to computers right now, so I don't really have the opportunity to continue writing this story. I'm really sorry for everyone who's put in all the time and effort to read this, but I think I'll have to end things here and now. I guess... this story is now labelled abandoned? Anyone who hasn't already, please go read Lion's Den by Arcawolf ( /works/7685368/chapters/17506612) as it's the story I took a lot of inspiration from to write this one... and it was actually completed, so-

Finally, thank you to all of my readers. I... kind of consider all my frequent commenters to be friends, so I really have to thank you all for the support you've given me over the past, who is it now... two years? Though I suppose a lot of that time was spent on... unannounced hiatus. Once more, I'm really sorry about dropping away from archive so suddenly and not giving anyone notice... and I'm also really sorry for not finishing this story.

I wish you the best of luck! Thank you all very much-! ;v;
