Hello and thank you to all my dear readers. This has been one wild ride. One I'm happy to say has reached a point I was content with. This was never meant to be a happy ending.
That's right, I always intended for some betrayal to happen that left a vague open ended result and I was probably never going to make a sequel. Of course, plans changed as Keitor became so good. Originally, Lotor was supposed to use and betray the paladins and Keith was going to be heartbroken, but that changed when I felt it was forced.
So you've probably read this wondering why I even have an author's note. Well, here goes. If this were a traditional story, I would end it here and start another book. But since this is the internet and I can do whatever I want here, consider this the book break. Everything after this would be a new book.
And I do have more planned. This is just too good to leave as is. But I need a break.
I worked hard to keep this flowing hard and fast. There were a lot of emotions and plot development. I look back now and cringe at all the small continuity errors or simple grammar problems. It is my intention to go back and fix those over the next few weeks and return to the story in a month or so.
The title may change... I'm not sure yet, so if you see updates or changes, please, be patient with me.
As always, thanks to everyone who reviewed the chapters. It helped direct this story more than you can possibly know. Thank you for your continual interest and may we meet again soon.
This is Belladonna signing off... for now.
update: dont skip the epilogue people!
