Hey everyone, I have some news. After a few days of contemplation, I've decided to drop this fic to focus on my studies and career.
Between my thesis, studying for CompTIA Security+, and preparing for my Master's degree in Estonia (which is quite expensive for a non-EU student), I've realized I need to stop writing. Honestly, I've even stopped browsing and reading new fics; without that creative injection, I just can't keep going.
Thank you for the support over the last few weeks, especially my six patrons. I'm proud of having gained supporters in such a short time, and I will be issuing partial refunds (blame the government and Patreon fees for the missing bit!). This journey was short, but it helped me realize my true goals in life.
I will be releasing the remaining unreleased chapters along with a short outline of where I intended the story to go, in hopes that someone will adopt it.
