Chương 615: The Burden of Grief

ELRETH

She wondered if it was possible to actually die from grief. Then she growled at herself, because could there be a more self-pitying thought?

And yet, the question didn't leave her head.

She had walked through that day feeling as if her limbs were lead.

It had been a month since the portals were closed, her parents were lost, and Aaryn disappeared. Every day since, she'd gone to sleep vowing that the next day would be easier. That she would find joy, somewhere, somehow. And every day had been proven to be only more painful, and heavier than the one preceding it.

As Elreth left the market after a breakfast she hadn't been able to eat, she shook her head. There were so many things to be grateful for. Why couldn't her heart find even a speck of joy in them?

The humans who had intended to destroy the Anima had been rousted, destroyed—and the voices as well.

"When can we read the rest of the chapters if we don't buy privilege?"

The TL,DR version is: No later than 1 June, but I'm trying to get it to you sooner.

The ACTUAL answer is....

I have an "After the End" catch-up I wanted to write and post in June, but the system on WN has changed and become really restrictive for completed books. Basically, if I mark the book complete at the end of this week when the event ends (So those chapters will start feeding out of privilege day by day), that one catch-up chunk of chapters is all I will be allowed to post on the book EVER.

Whereas, if I wait until June (when I have time to write it properly) I can remove all the privilege tiers (except the 1 coin tier that is only in WN's control), mass release the remaining chapters, and post the extra material WITHOUT using up that last chance to publish on it, that I had hoped to leave for a special occasion later.

None of this is in your hands, and I know that's frustrating. I'm sorry that you have to wait. I am trying to see if I can find time to write in May instead of June so I can post those chapters in May so they push the ending chapters through privilege for you. But it's not looking good, honestly. My schedule was already pushed out three days because Dark Alpha took longer to complete than I expected, and with the two new books, my commitment calendar is full.

So, please forgive me, I have been so busy in the lead up to this I actually forgot about privilege and didn't think all of this through before I published the ending, so I'm scrambling to try and figure it out now. I will keep you posted!
