With that another journey comes to an end.

At 38,765 words, this story is one of longest ONC entry, surpassing even Mina which was 32,000+ words. This story is very dear to my heart and as I type out this note, I am getting very emotional. Raisa's journey is not just her own but mine as well. I am happy that I got to tell her story, no matter how imperfectly.

Thanks so much to everybody who supported this story. Thanks to Milicaorevi7, lyttlejoe and empiresofwater for their unwavering support. A big shoutout to lyttlejoe for pointing out the errors in the text. It helped greatly in the editing process. This journey was a success only because of my dear readers. Please do check out their works as well. A shoutout to AngeBlancRose for creating the cover. It perfectly encapsulates the vibes of the story.

I'll stop here for now. Hope to meet you soon in a new story. Till then, bye!

With love,
Ruhika.
