AUTHOR NOTE OF DOOOOM.

So, this isn't an update. I'm sorry. However, I have some news for you all (if anyone's still paying attention to this fic) that you may like. I've begun work on the next few chapters, and in order to make up for my stunningly lame lack of updates, I'm going to just write a few chapters in a row and update them in quick succession. Also, it's with loads of excitement that I introduce my new beta for H&S, The Dark Moon Alchemist. So, if you all would pardon just a little bit longer of a wait, I promise to have new chapters up as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone who has remained faithful despite my crappy lack of updates. You all have my honest gratitude, and I hope that you enjoy the next chapters!

Much love,

Vel.
