Author's Note >_<

Hello! This is my entry in the 'Epic Heroine' sub-category for the MAL x Honeyfeed 2026 contest! 

I am aware I'm starting this very late, but I hope I can show you guys what I've been working on... Due to some unforeseen life events (and plus my data got wiped), this got wayyy too delayed. 

Anyways, this story is a work of fiction, and something I've been meaning to put out for this contest. I hope you give it a read! 

Thank you~

Ps; yes I sometimes use em-dashes as I think they impact the pacing well when needed, but no: I am strictly against using AI to write my works and swear I have not used it.
