Hello, my dear readers, this is Katt! Yes, it's been a while, hasn't it? How are you? I know it may have been a long wait and, for many, it feels like an eternity since the last chapter, but we've finally reached the end of this journey. And, honestly, I can't believe we're here. Irony of fate, isn't it? I myself never thought we'd get to more than 820,000 words written. When I started, I never imagined that the story would take on such huge proportions, that I would have such a strong connection with each and every one of you. And now, after so long, I can only look back with mixed emotions.
