Hey there! Thanks for clicking onto my book, first time I'm posting something new here for a while, but I hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I did writing it. I really just have a few items of housekeeping to get out of the way, so why not just jump right in?

First thing is that all contents of this book are the intellectual property of Y. I. Turner (flamesword01), and this work has only been rightfully posted to Wattpad.com, logo pictured below. 

(My reason for posting a picture of the logo is that mirror sites will replace the name of the website in the text body with their own, but I'd like to see them change my image too, haha. If you are on a mirror site, please leave immediately, as you are at risk of a malware attack. Anyone willing to steal a book available for free online surely has no qualms about stealing your data.) 

If you are on Wattpad and are reading this work on an account other than that belonging to Y. I. Turner/flamesword01, please report the plagiarism and navigate to my page to support the original work, please and thank you! 

Last on the topic of intellectual rights is that the AI craze is in full swing, and I'm unsure where Wattpad stands on AI, but in reserving rights to my work, I also prohibit use of my creations to train AI algorithms in any way. Stealing my work by use of a bot or algorithm is still stealing, and if you do it, I will find you. I know where you live.

(My dad works at Microsoft.)

Anyways, that covers most of our bases! This is the first book for a series I'm working on, though me posting the following volumes will be dependent on the reception of this work. I'm not one to beg for internet points, but as you proceed, if you enjoy what you're reading, please do vote and comment to let me know!  

Without further ado, let's get into the story! Thanks for reading all the way through this if you did, and I promise my fiction writing is more enjoyable than my disclaimer ramblings.

See you in chapter one!
