Yeah, this fic is ending.

This makes the second story I've officially canceled with a message like this. This isn't any easier than the first time.

I hate this feeling, this feeling of just lack of desire to write. I've been feeling it for a long while with the projects I've been juggling, and I'll admit the stuff I write nowadays feels less genuine than what I used to do. Less passion, less desire.

I love this fic for what it could have been. I love it like all my other FE projects because of how much fun it was to write them.

This fic, despite having a following unlike my other FE fics, isn't fun to write anymore.

I want to head off the inevitable question: "If you like this fic so much, why not just come back to it later?"

My answer is just how I am wired. If I let this fic sit with the intention that I'll come back to it later, I'll never get anything else done while I constantly worry about this fic and what I need to do with it. I've tried writing several ideas out these past few months and I just can't do them.

I'm having a lot of problems with my writing. I wrote a story called Road Taken, Innocence Forsaken earlier this year, and for the first time in a long time, I LOVED writing it. It reminded me what I'm capable of and what I love about the creative process. I've never written with such a desire to create, to present a truly awesome visage of my work.

This fic is not something I can continue. I don't fault you if you don't understand, but I need to just cease all uncertainty in my mind and end this.

I am sorry about this. I was excited to write this at one point, planning out a ton of different details and cool ideas that I never reached. I wish I could give them to you in a story format, but I just can't.

If you read through this disjointed message, thank you. I hope you continue to support me in my work in the future. Thank you to everyone I spoke to about this and encouraged me to continue. I tried, I really did.
