Hello everyone,

  I wanted to take a moment to reach out and share an important update regarding my activity here for the foreseeable future. I am currently in Iran visiting my wife’s family.

  Given the current circumstances in the region, there is a significant possibility that internet access could be restricted or cut off entirely at any moment without prior notice. This obviously could make it hard or impossible to maintain my regular posting schedule.

  If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

  While my intention is to keep sharing updates and staying as consistent as possible, I wanted to provide this "heads-up" in case I suddenly go silent. If you don't hear from me for a while, please know it is simply due to these technical limitations and not a permanent departure. I appreciate your patience and understanding during this time, and I look forward to getting back to a normal routine as soon as the situation allows.

  Best regards to you all, and thank you for your continued support.

  A. Vael
