Hey there,

I know this is against the rules and all, but I don't know how to do Author Notes at the end of a story, and I wanted to say a few things, so please don't report me.

I'm sorry I didn't update for a while, I went to a three week summer camp where I had no internet connection. I just wanted to say that I have not abandoned this story.

To clear up: this has nothing to do with the HoN series at all, it's just set in the same universe. Zoe and company will not be showing up in this story at all. Sorry if you thought she would, but that's not the story I'm telling!

Reviews are VERY helpful. Just review, please! Comments like, "This is great, keep writing" or even just "keep writing please!" make me want to continue writing because people like what I wrote, but especially critique is helpful. I'd like to just say thank you Nyx'sReincarnation because of your very helpful comment!

If you have any suggestions on what should happen (should she get together with Leo, should she get rejected by Leo, should Egypt die, should her parents die, should Happy Will and her meet in person) please comment with your ideas.

Sorry, guys, but I'm also kind of bad at developing characters quickly. All her new friends and teachers' personalities will be appearing very slowly, and some people will die before you get a sense of them. If you have an idea for how a character should be (should Derek secretly be evil, should Zara have a hidden aggressive side) please review with it. I can't promise I'll use your idea (I'm not giving Zara a hidden aggressive side, sorry, but I'm open to making Derek evil) but I might.

Also, I'm aware that Ivory Labastria may be becoming a Mary Sue. If you see this happening please TELL ME! I hate Mary Sue characters and Ivory definitely shouldn't be one! I sometimes forget to put her flaws in the story because they're so ingrained in the version of her that's in my head. But I want to fix anything that's making her appear a Mary Sue.

One last thing. I have a website with this story also on it, and pictures of all the characters on it. It's called .com and you don't have to go to it if you want, but I suggest it. This is how I, the author, am imagining all the characters.

Sorry, I said the website was the last thing, but… this is really the last thing. I swear it is! I especially would like feedback on the names, I know some of them are kind of weak. I would also like to clarify something: I'm writing this story with somebody else who's writing Happy Will's side of the story, and I DID NOT PICK HAPPY WILL'S NAME! I personally don't like it, but I didn't get to choose my writing partner's character's name. My writing partner's version of the story is not on

Please review this story!

Thank you for reading my story, and taking the time to read this note to readers. I appreciate your feedback and support, if you reviewed.
