Eyo, one chapter for a few days. Things have been so hectic that I'll suffer burnout if I don't tone things down. In the meantime, if anyone wants to pre-read unpublished content, hit me up on Discord: Margrave#2704. No editing is necessary, I just need advice and pre-reading periodically. Cheers, everyone!
