Welcome one and all to Penance! I've been very excited about this one for a while. Hope you enjoyed this prologue, a throwback to the prologue of Tenebrous and hopefully a highlight of the darker tone of this story. I'm glad you're all back with me here! If you haven't read Tenebrous already, make sure to do so before you dive into Tenebrous (or don't, I'm not a cop). Regardless, spoilers about circumstances of Tenebrous' epilogue below, so don't say I didn't warn you:
Some of you guys are seriously freaking out over the tracker mentioned in the epilogue. Please calm down. It wasn't Demetri. I would never do our boy dirty like that. Not to mention if I did, you all would probably hunt me down. Kudos if you can guess who it actually is (yes, it was someone mentioned in the Twilight saga).
Anyway, I'm super excited to go on this journey with you guys and I hope you enjoy what is to come! I'll see you (hopefully) soon with the first official chapter of Penance!
