Another update: a lot has changed about the story. Not in a "I'm no longer writing it anymore", but more in a "I have literally changed everything in it". I am also going to post it in its own book instead of posting the first chapters on my one shot book.
I have also made the decision to write a prelude that explains a bit of the backstory because I feel like the story needs the reader to know a bit about the lore if they want to understand it at the beginning. I, being an amateur writer, am not the best at writing organic exposition, so the prelude is the easiest way for me to do it.
That should be all.
