Just wanted to give a quick update on why I haven't been updating lately.
I've been dealing with mild migraines that come and go, and they've been messing with my focus. They're mostly triggered by anxiety, which has been a bit harder to manage recently. Between the headaches and the mental stress, it's been tough to sit down and actually get words out in a way that feels right.
I haven't dropped the story, but I need a break until things settle a bit. Thanks for understanding, and I appreciate everyone who's stuck around.
