Dear readers- Mordae's wife (aka Kasumi Morauko) here.

I’ve started this about a hundred times…but haven’t been able to go through with it. Please bear with me. I’ve been drafting and redrafting, this post for over a year now, a feeling any fellow authors will understand.

I come bearing bad news, and apologizes. I regret to inform you all that Mordae passed away on 12/03/20. Today should have been his 52nd birthday. I am sorry it took so long after the fact to inform you. I might explain later; I may never be strong enough. His death took myself and our families by surprise, and we where completely unprepared. A good number of things are still undecided.

I am not yet certain about what will happen to his unfinished work; I may post it as is, I may finish it. (I think I remember how he wanted to end Tranquilly Protocols...) Feel free to let me know your thoughts. I have possession of his tablet and PC, and been watching your reviews and comments. He loved you readers and you where important to him. Your comments where read, and you did count. Never forget that.

(Original Text)Yes, I am still alive, and yes, I am still (slowly) working on some of these stories.

There is a Tranquility Protocols rewrite in the works. Mostly just a re-arrangement to make more sense and reduce the exposition. Less talking and more action and more organization. The old version will remain up until I get the new versions up.

I'm also being told by my spouse to give the HP and the Yellow King a bit of clarity, so that will show up sometime.

Hopefully that will be before the end of the year (6 months from now... wish me luck.)

As usual, thanks for the reviews, follows and comments.
