Sorry to those who saw this get updated expecting it was a new chapter, I'm sure you're well aware by the chapter title that this is just a place for me to be a voice for my story.

Main reason I'm writing this is mostly because of one person I (To my knowledge) have no other viable means of contacting. So really this is a message to one guy (Or girl) and maybe others to come.

To the Anon in the reviews (Specifically the one who writ a page of text as a review for the last chap), I put this here pretty much for you, seeing that it does not allow me to directly message or PM Anons.

You're probably thinking I am mad or angered by your words to go this far just to retort a message back to you.

On the contrary however. I'm very glad that you voiced your opinion on the final chapter and that you had so much to say. At first I thought I knew where you review was going, typical ranting flames telling me how much you hated it, and everyone else how terrible it is.

But you pointed out flaws in my ending in an 'as kind as it gets' kinda way, and I appreciate that very much, especially considering I asked for it at the end of the final chap, I wanted to hear as many peoples diverse opinions on what they thought, whether good or bad.

If all the reviews I got were good, then I wouldn't believe it – I knew there were going to be readers that wouldn't like the ending, so I'd just think I pissed them off so much they didn't bother reviewing it. And well if they are all bad reviews, then that just means I did a bad job.

I would however like to defend myself on a few things. Most of what you mentioned I actually agree with. Thinking back on it I did end up making the Lich a bit overpowered to the point were the suspense of whether or not Finn could defeat him was dissipating, becoming quite clear early on in the fight. And yes I should have done more with Marceline because she turned up as a trump card for the first 30 seconds she is seen and then pretty much becomes useless from that point on.

I still stand by the decision on Bubblegum's device however. I never wanted it to work. That essentially was the groups 'get out of jail free card' if it did. It was hastily made within three days while she was in a fragile state of mind while constructing it – she is a genius, but even still she is prone to making mistakes when tired and stressed. Overall I wanted the device to be a delusion for everyone in the story and for the reader that no matter how tough things get, the device has the power to save them - only for it to become a vain effort.

I do also want to point out went and read over and over this chapter probably, off the top of my head, somewhere between 30-40 times, each time adding more to it. Bearing in mind I usually only go over and proof read a chapter normally 3-5 times to make sure it flows well and there are no errors. This chapter I planned to release around two months ago, but I just kept adding to it as the final fight just felt too much like the previous showdowns. And in doing so, reading it over and over and over, I kinda got lost. When proof reading it back then, to me everything seemed fine, if it didn't I wouldn't release it. But now, especially after you pointing things out from your perspective I now see my many errors. So I thank you and also apologies.

So really to wrap up here, I am glad to have read your review. I will definitely keep in mind some of the things you said for future projects. This has been my first story (Technically second) and so in writing it I have certainly learnt allot more than than I knew going in and starting this, so if anything , it has been a nice learning curve for me.

So again thanks for your review Anon and thanks for sticking with this story all the way through - next time I hope you'll review with a profile attached. I will try my best to improve on the things you've mentioned, alas for this story however, it is what it is.

I think I covered mostly everything, if I didn't, I'd like to hear back from you. (Even if I did, I'd like to hear back from you)
