@MeiSanniang - first of all thank you so much for taking the time to read it, and thank you for your kind words!! You have no idea how much joy a comment like this can bring - well, perhaps you do, as a fellow writer :) So glad you've enjoyed it (although come on, you gotta admit, you knew you liked Ardyn a little bit right? right? you knew there was a small part of you that wanted to read about him :P)
At the moment I've only thought of finishing this fic, but with the super sweet feedback like yours, it definitely inspires me to keep writing more. Thank you!!
