Dear Readers,

  I had hoped my anxiety would ease with time, but unfortunately, it hasn't improved as I anticipated. This has led to a case of writer's block, and I find myself struggling to move forward with my work. I deeply apologize to everyone who has been eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

  If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

  I will be taking a break this week to focus on my well-being and to refresh my mind. I appreciate your understanding and patience during this time. I look forward to seeing you all next week with renewed energy.

  Thank you for your support.

  Sincerely,

  Magicknight
