Hey everyone,

  After a lot of thought, I’ve decided to rewrite this story under a new title: The Journey Beyond Betrayal. While I love the core of this story—especially Aster, the AI—I realized that the way things were unfolding wasn’t shaping into the story I truly wanted to tell. To fix that, I’ve made some adjustments, particularly to Zelo’s family situation, to better align with my vision.

  If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

  I know it’s disappointing when a story gets discontinued, and I’m really sorry for my short-sightedness in the beginning. But if you’ve enjoyed this world so far, I’d love for you to join me in The Journey Beyond Betrayal and see where Zelo’s path leads this time.

  Thank you again for your support, and I hope to see you in the next adventure!
