Hey guys; it's been a while! Not that it's much of a good thing.

I'm going to be brief; I haven't been feeling that great, and a part of that is because I just can't figure out how to write Manus' chapter well. Part of it is lack of energy, but I've never been particularly captivated by his character; as a result, I don't really have the inspiration to write a chapter that I feel does his character justice. Having discussed this with my friend, I've decided that I'm going to postpone his chapter until a later date, and instead move on to the Lost Sinner.

Sorry for the wait guys, but I promise I will get the next chapter out as soon as I can. Thanks so much for your patience, and I apologize for my absence.

P.S. Given that this notice is more to give you guys time-relevant information, I'm probably going to remove this once the next few chapters are up.
