Hello, everyone! I hope this finds you well on these crisp November days.

I have a difficult, but very necessary announcement to make that will affect planned and potential interactions with the characters I currently play.

As of right now, I am tentatively working towards my eventual, permanent departure from Final Fantasy: Adventu as both staff and a role player. Due to personal events in my life, I must shift everything over to favor time with solo projects I can work with on my own pace, and also spend time paying attention to my family, as well. As much of an absolute joy it is to interact and write with you all, I say this with a heavy heart, and want everyone to know that my departure is in no way, shape or form a negative connotation to the state of the site, it's operations, and it's plot. As a matter of fact, it's just me choosing self care over dividing my focus.

I wish to give everyone an opportunity, however, to speak to me outside of the site Discord (which I will still be in, so I can swing by and say hi, see how things are), so, if you would like, add me on Discord, and, if you're a PS4 gamer, add me with the PSN: Kadilesco.

I admire and appreciate each and every one of you for everything you've done in contributing to the writing and storytelling we've gotten into these past years, and I wish nothing more than to see what was essentially mine and Red's brain child thrive and grow for more years to come. This place is a home for writers, and fans of Final Fantasy, and that's what it will always be, at it's core.

Once the thread Flash Bright, Fade Away is completed and closed out, I will proceed in the deleting of all four of my characters, trackers, and involvement with site and personal plots, opening all four of them (Zidane, Cloud, Noctis and Garland) for application and subsequent acceptance. I've hung onto them for long enough, waiting for life to pull away and let me write, but I've realized that I need to turn my attention to my life, and what it holds for me in the future.

I have to extend a heartfelt thanks to the staff members that I've had the honor of working with, and to the members that I've had the pleasure of writing and creating such wonderful narratives with. You're all amazing writers, and you all deserve to be recognized as such. So, spare me a thought when you expand on this already huge world, and give it everything you've got.

So, until next time, farewell, and I'll see you all around.

Chris (Valefor)
