41 Updates and Announcements

Hello everyone,

I apologize to keep you all waiting and I appreciate your patience, but some life stuff has happened for my editor and I to where I had to put aside my projects for a period, leaving me with the decision to delay the release and push it back to next month, October. I do feel bad about bringing this announcement to all of you who've been itching to read more of this story again, so instead of leaving you in the dark, I will leave some info about retcons that I'm planning to enforce in this story as well as hints of what's to come along with all my stories going forward.

Retcons (Note: I'll probably leave a chapter that specifies these changes so some readers won't be confused):

Agnes' butler, Wilson, will be changed out with a maid. He won't be gone indefinitely, but this change must be done for reasons my editor had pointed out to that I didn't even take into consideration. There will be no further questionings on this matter.

Attribute Magic will be changed to Elemental Magic. This is more to help me better differentiate between types of magic and not get them mixed up (especially with Aptitude Magic, which will stay as is).

Monster stones (monstones, not sure if I actually ever left that term there), will be changed to monster cores (or maybe cores for short). Element stones (or e-stones) will stay the same.

That's it for the retcons, now for the more fun, exciting news of what's to come.

Do you want to access chapters earlier than other readers? Getting ahead by one, two, three, or maybe even more chapters? Do you want to participate in the MC's adventures in some manner? Do you want to read more stories from me that you can't find on here? How about some *cross out* very very poor but sexy fanart *end of crossout* illustrations of characters from this story or some other popular medium, all by yours truly?

I will tell you right now, once I have everything set, and if things go well, you will have a chance to get all of these, and maybe then some, in the near future, so stay tuned for when that happens.

One final thing, in accordance to these huge changes with my writing 'hobby,' I was thinking of upgrading my profile, specifically getting some avatar that represents me more as a creator, but I'm having difficulty to come up with what might seem good. So I'd like to ask you guys, based on my current profile pic, handle/penname (Orange Rain), the type of content I create, or maybe even none of the above, what kind of avatar, OC, mascot, etc. do you think would suit me? What do you think of when you hear or read my penname?

Please let me know your thoughts on all these either in the comments, on royal road, or my twitter @OrangeRain3477. Once again, thank you all for your patience, and please look forward for amazing things ahead to hopefully make this year not as crappy as it has been.
