A Note From The Author.

I would like to thank all of you readers who stuck with me through this story. From the time that I saw Star Trek: In To Darkness, I had been convinced that I wanted to write a story for Khan, to continue his story. And being a fan of the old series, with fond memories of The Wrath of Khan, I wanted to keep true to the original canon in some form.

Along the way, many things and plans changed for this story. Many choices made and others discarded. I want to thank those of you who helped to shape this story for the better, either through requests, questions, or simply pointing out finer points I myself had missed. As time passes, I will likely go through again and find more, and adjust them accordingly. While the telling is done, the story will always be on-going in the sense that I will never stop fully tweaking it and editing it until it is polished and at its utmost best.

For those of you unsatisfied or unhappy with certain choices, I apologize, but these were my choices to make, as the writer. Some worked for many, others didn't, and we are all free to have an opinion. Should anyone out there, reading this, decide they have their own ideas or want to venture in to writing their own version of these characters, I will be glad to read them and keep an open mind, and critique, review, and see just what your minds cook up, just as you have done with me.

As for those of you who may be wondering if I will do a sequel, or who want to know what happened with Khan, the Augments, and of course with Astrid and her band, well, much of that story is told in To Reign in Hell, and while a great deal of this was a re-telling and re-imagining of the story in the Abbrams AU, it was only my goal to ever tell Marla's story with Khan. Yes, I included Khan's POV at times, but only where I thought it necessary to help us see other parts of the over-all story of this character that, sadly, receives so little recognition and credit. So much so that she was ignored all together in the recent film.

Though perhaps the Khan origin-comics will fix that? Who knows.

But to answer, no. I won't be writing about them. And I won't be re-writing all of The Wrath of Khan. Aside from minor changes (such as Scotty and Chekov's switch, since Chekov never met Khan in the reboot) the story from the film remains in-tact, in my mind. And I do not feel that I am the writer who can be tasked to re-imagine that tale in full. If anyone out there has the vision, patience, and time to take on such a feat, I will happily follow your story from start to finish.

I will say, however, that I do intend to make a prequel of sorts. But I will wait for refreshed inspiration from the film's release on Blu-ray later this year. We shall see then how fate danced Marla and Khan around one another before it finally brought them together. And that's the only tidbit I'll share for now.

For those of you willing to follow my writing in other genres and worlds in the future, fret not. Soon I shall be posting an all new tale, which is a collaboration with my dear friend TekaWolf.

The next time you see me, well… Things are going to get wibbley ^.^

Tata for now, everyone. Thank you all so much for reading.
