Hiya! Many of you may have noticed I killed off ocean at an odd time. She still had a lot ahead of her, that's for sure. The problem is, I have hand injuries on both of my hands. Typing hurts, and i'm on a lot of pain killers just to write this. The only way for it to heal, really, is rest. And I can't do that with ocean, when i need to write ceremonies and roleplay every week. It seems unfair that I overthrew carnation & co for not roleplaying, and then I couldn't do grinds every day like I wanted to. I decided a couple of weeks ago I was going to leave after the war. I wanted to be an active leader who could roleplay with anyone who asked, but I guess fate had other plans. I like to think i've achieved enough with ocean to be proud. Wards have meant more apprentices are ageing up with 6+ exp, Weekly prey quests keep the community engaged, and i've tried my best to support rebellions rather than shutting them down to give people storylines they, in turn can be proud of. I'm going to be gone for likely over a month. When that's over, i'll come back and make up her death project. I'll roleplay with maplerise, and i'll try and get ocean her happy ending. I'd like to have a kittypet, after that. I can't really beat Buzzbug and Oceanstar- and it might be nice to do something low stress. For 8 months i've been doing 5+ roleplays a day. It's fun, i've loved it- but it's not sustainable for my health anymore. Thank you guys for all the good times, and i'll see you again one day <3
