for those of you who are actually invested in the book, i have made the decision to remove Spiritborn from the Ballad of the Infernal Saga and make it its own independent story. don't get me wrong, i love rani and nemarra and i have no plans to give up on their story, but with all the books i have planned for the saga, having two additional characters would just be too much. i mean, if i had kept them in the saga, the winter soldier alone would have seven characters to focus on, including steve, sam, and natasha. and my brain would literally implode if i had to do that. so now, Spiritborn is its own separate fanfiction and i have adjusted the book's layout and information accordingly. i hope you understand.
