I've been following along with this story on reddit since shortly after it began, the all-around quality started off strong and has only gotten better, and it's up there with the most consistently posted of the dozens of stories I follow (the author takes the occasional break, but we get a heads up well in advance). If you enjoy fantasy that doesn't jump the shark, is willing to delve into dark topics (but not to an exaggerated or uncomfortable degree) and has excellent character and plot progression (the pacing really is superb) then be sure to give this story a chance.
