Hey everyone,

  I took some time to review the early chapters and realized the opening needed improvements in pacing and setup. Because of that, I’ve revised the opening arc.

  Over the next few days, some earlier chapters will be removed and replaced with updated versions. The core story remains the same, but the beginning has been tightened for better flow.

  The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

  I also now have a chapter buffer, so updates will resume on a consistent schedule.

  New release schedule:

  3 chapters per week

  Thanks for sticking around.
