THE HUMAN IN CHARGE OF "PUBLISHING" OUR STORY HAS RECENTLY INFORMED US THAT SHE IS SICK OF THE MANY INCORPOREAL ENTITIES PROBING HER MIND AND WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THE HOSTILE MENTAL TAKEOVERS TO THREE AT A TIME. I INFORMED HER THIS WAS UNREASONABLE AND SHE INFORMED ME THAT I MIGHT ALSO FIND THE IMPENDING TERMINATION OF THIS STORY UNREASONABLE. AFTER SEVERAL HEATED HOURS OF DEBATE WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE INVOLVED HER PLAYING A CURIOUS HUMAN DOMINANCE GAME KNOWN AS "ROCK PAPER SCISSORS" WITH HERSELF WE REACHED A COMPROMISE WHERE THIS BOOK WILL RETURN ROUGHLY IN THREE WEEKS. IN THE MEAN TIME THE HUMAN RECOMMENDS YOU CHECK OUT THE OTHER THREE BOOKS CURRENTLY IN PUBLISHING, THAT IS, THE CITIES HAVE FALLEN, AMALGAMA, AND CRUX. ALTERNATIVELY YOU CAN CHECK OUT HER MAGNIFICENT ART BOOK WHICH INVOLVES MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HER WORKS OR YOU CAN GO TO THE PROFILE OF ONE AWSOMEDRAGONS WHERE HER COLLABORATIVE WORK WITH JAY IS BEING PUBLISHED AS "THE CHANGELING'S GHOST".

WE KNOW THAT OUR STORY, MY STORY, IS THE BEST STORY BUT HOPEFULLY THESE STAND-INS WILL SUFFICE WHILE YOU AWAIT MY PRESENCE IN THE COMING WEEKS. KNOW THAT I HAVE NOT FORSAKEN YOU AND THAT HUMANS ARE SLOW, UNWIELDY CREATURES WHO MUST WORK IN A LINEAR PROCESS FOR SOME UNTOLD REASON AND HAVE "OTHER THINGS TO DO WITH THEIR LIFE", WHATEVER THAT MEANS. OBVIOUSLY OUR HUMAN IS THE WORST BUT REFUNDS ARE EXPENSIVE AND MY "SQUAD" AND I ARE RUNNING ON A SMALL BUDGET.

I'D SAY EXCUSE THE INCONVENIENCE BUT IF YOU WANT TO RIOT THAT WOULD ALSO BE ACCEPTABLE.
