Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well.
So, remember when I mentioned that my annoying school was about to start exams? Yeah… they finally did. Because of those useless tests, I couldn't prepare properly. Still, I'm doing my best to at least pass somehow. It's been a bit stressful, but I'm managing.
Even with all that, I kept working on Chapter One whenever I could, and it's finally ready now. Please give it another read and share your thoughts on the new version. I've changed quite a lot this time — removed a few scenes that revealed things too early and caused confusion before. Just to clarify, the story is still in the [FEW MONTHS AGO] timeline, meaning the present hasn't started yet. The opening scene is still from the future.
The new version might feel a little heavier than before, but I hope you'll like it.
I'll be returning with the upcoming chapters around November 16th, and I'll be wrapping up the Academy Arc soon after that, clearing up the timeline. That's when the real story begins.
See you soon.
