The previously posted chapter has been redacted following reader feedback.
I tried a few new things with the narrative structure as an experiment (this is my first fanfiction) and ended up confusing everyone.
Sorry to those who did enjoy the chapter, but I can safely say the writing experiment failed. Hopefully you enjoy the replacement just as much.
The chapter will be re-written before the next arc begins.
Thanks to all who took the time to alert me to the issues, it should help make the story stronger.
