So. I suppose you guys deserve an explanation for my lack of updates. To make it a long story short, I'm in a really bad place right now and I can't accomplish writing anything but utter shit. I don't intend for this to die off, but it could end up happening.
To go into a bit more detail, I've been facing a lot of bullshit in my school (Recently moved to an extremely religious, conservative area...Constantly lying about a major part of my identity while surrounded by incredibly homophobic people (As well as general assholes) has not been amazing for my mental health), and as such, I've come into a really terrible mental state that basically results in a feedback loop of self-loathing. As I sink lower into my psuedo-depression, I end up becoming worse and worse at writing/coding/etc., resulting in me considering my work and myself horrible, resulting in me getting worse...So on and so forth. As such, I can't actually write anything even vaguely worthy of posting.
As such, I won't be continuing the City of Aretrian any time soon. It will be going on a hiatus for an indefinite and likely very long period of time. In fact, I'll be totally honest; it may not be coming back at all. I really do love working on this, and playing with you five, but...Well, at the moment I simply can't continue to work on it. I don't want this to die, really. It's been one of the major things keeping me going. But I don't want to leave this teetering on the brink in some sort of limbo...Aretrian deserves better. Really, it deserves to be continued, but I can't do it and I'm too selfish and jealous to allow someone else to take the reigns. So for now, I'll be putting this in stasis, to be revived later. I'm sorry about this, really. I know it sucks, and it sucks for me too, but I just can't leave this unresolved. I will, at least, provide this much.
And, rest assured, I'll be providing the answers to what the fuck was going on in this fever-dream of a campaign should it become evident I'll not continue it. Thank you guys for putting up with this bullshit for so long. I know I've been a horrendous DM, but still.
