[NOTICE: Indefinite hiatus of project.]

((I have too many things I want to do, and not enough of me to go around to do them. WIth worsening health issues, I have decided to scrap some unannounced projects and shelve some others behind the scenes, and for the time being, RETURNTALE is caught in the crossfire.

At the present moment, I do intend to return (hah!) to this once I have figured out a way to tell the story efficiently, but it really can't be right now, and most likely not this year. This may be disappointing news for the very small handful of people who found this AU interesting, but for my personal sanity, that's where we're at right now.

I hope you understand and can forgive me for the long wait.))
