Well, it is purely evident where most lie now, and I have to admit simple defeat in my hopes that most, if not all, will return. While I abhor to close a story with tons of potential with an entire construct meant to span into a sequel even, and then some, I recognize the marks of differing interest and priorities. It falls onto being my fault, so I won't call out any respective writers here or bother to shed away my attempts! Just know that I strongly appreciate those that made efforts and stayed loyal and with me to the bitter end. It has been a wonderful time writing with you and I hope to have that privilege in future stories! But despite that, it's with a heavy heart that announce that Requiem will be no more, I can't allow my efforts and world to crumble away without being given some sort of rest. Once more, a strong [i]thank you ♥[/i] to those that stayed until the end, and a huge apology and regret on my part that you didn't get to explore the depths of your character. Perhaps the verse of Viera will make another appearance in the future, but for now, I've exhausted my tolerance and patience entirely and have to force the inevitable outcome. Ah well, it was fun while it did last! Best wishes, Rockette.
