Status update!
          
          Hello lovely people,
          
          Yes, I'm somehow still alive! I stepped away for so long due to many factors causing me to lessen my load of tasks to the bare minimum, physics especially... I was struggling with work and no off time, financial issues due to my significant other struggling to get a job, managing a big move, preparing to get my bachelor's degree, getting a new job, etc etc I've been busy and stressed af...
          
          As of right now I'm attempting to release a new chapter maybe every month or few weeks no promises it really depends on my monthly workload. I hope you all will continue to be patient and still support me as we continue this journey in Iris Souls! I'll be working on the next chapter tonight, so it may not be long for the next release! 
          
          I look forward to see you all in the comments again and this chapter will have a special surprise (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠)
          
          As always thank you all for everything! Chara out (⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠>⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■         (⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■⁠)

Due to some bad advertisement that has attracted questionable attention to my story I was forced to unpublished my prologue. I wanted to get my story out there, but not have support from what appears to be fake accounts. As much as it irks me to unpublished my work it was needed since they all filtered through there. Also to the persons responsible for this please unfollow me. 

Hello lovely people,
          
          I just want to apologize for my extended absence. Life has kept me severely busy and it does sadden me to put off the story i was most excited for for so long, and im sure it could've made you feel the same. With college starting and my work schedule changing as well as my military separation my life is going to continue to be busy for the remainder of the year, but no matter how busy i am i shall not stop this journey im taking with you all.
          
          As long as i can breath Iris Souls will continue i can promise you that. I ask that you continue to support me through votes and comments. I'll answer any questions you all may have and I'm curious to see your favorite moments in the story maybe even opinions on the characters. 
          
          In final news the next chapter will have multiple parts. I'm rereading and editing the next chapter as we speak and it will be published later today i hope you all enjoy it thank you all for your patience i look forward to our next interactions(⁠＾⁠∇⁠＾⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♪
          
          
          Stay lovely (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠)

My apologies for my hiatus I've been crazy busy buuuuut have no fear iris souls will return!!!\⁠(⁠๑⁠╹⁠◡⁠╹⁠๑⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♬(⁠ノ⁠^⁠_⁠^⁠)⁠ノ

Sorry for the delay I've been very busy this past week thanks to work, my birthday, and my anniversary so I do very much apologize for the delay in the next chapter. The next chapter will be posted soon this week.

I know it's been a while since my last update, but no worries I'm still active. I just had a loooooong week and work kept me busy. The next chapter will be released this weekend. In the mean time just sit back, relax, and prepare yourselves for an exciting adventure (⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■⁠)

*a mysterious package appears*

The support so far has been amazing I'm very thankful (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) And I'll do my best to release the next chapter next week. Sorry if that's a long wait for some, but outside of this I work as an EMT and that takes up a lot of my time and this is one of my long shifts so I'll be working until Monday morning ʘ⁠‿⁠ʘ(kms). Anyways after chapter 5 the story will start steer back to plot development and it will be a crucial point in the road map to the first major encounter. 
          
          After chapter 6 I would consider revealing small sneak peeks of the future chapters if you would be interested in that.
          
          If you want sneak peeks just reply to this message. If I get enough interest I'll make a discord for the sneak peaks to avoid spoilers for everyone.
          
          Again thank you all for the support for the support I hope you all continue to enjoy my story and please spread the word!! ლ⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠ლ⁠)(⁠〃ﾟ⁠3ﾟ⁠〃⁠)

Chapter 4 has finally been released I hope you all enjoy it!!! Don't forget to vote love you guuuuyyyyysssss ^_^
