**For Starters, I wish to thank everyone who has stuck by my side in this difficult time. Between the comments on here and in discord, I have gotten through the struggles of losing my cherished family member. To per into perspective, it was my Uncle, whom I at one point lived with after high school.
He was a man who taught me more than I could have ever asked for, and in my adult life, I have carried his teaching on. Of everyone in my life, he was also the one who supported me the most in my venture of finally becoming an author, so to say this story happened because of his urgings would be an understatement. His passing hit me harder than I could ever have imagined, and I will miss him dearly.
With that said, I thank you all once again from the bottom of my heart and am ready to move on with the story of Cynrik and Brance, so it is back to business as usual, two chapters a day.
