Chapter Text
That's it. We're done.
It's 1pm where I am, I just finished editing and posting the story's epilogue and god I can't believe this fanfic is finally done, after one year and nine months of continuous writing (and one year and four months since I started posting it).
Did I fist bumped the air and laughed like I was mad ? Yep, absolutely.
Am I glad I'm fucking free ? 300%, though I have trouble realizing it's really done.
I had a blast writing this story. It was 200% fun sprinkled with a bit of desperation and exhaustion but hey, I survived so let's only think about positive stuff.
We should be somewhere around 560,000/570,000 words.
I expected only 300,000 when I wrote the first draft but I guess I got carried away lmao.
Anyway, just wanted to say thank you to all of those that read since the beginning or joined me on this journey later on - y'all weren't really talkative but thankfully people on other websites were lmao.
I'll certainly edit Part 3 in a bit, but you got the essence of what I wanted to say here and that's what matters.
I think I've done a pretty good job though, I'm proud of the general vibe of these last chapters.
I, obviously, have another FF planned after this one : for those of you that are not aware, this will be a Naruto one set in Amegakure a bit before canon time.
I've got a lot of nice ideas planned for this one but first I'll just take a nice, long break.
(It'll come out July 2025, you can contribute to the story by sending me ideas/concepts you'd like to see in the next story, and you'll certainly get to choose the story's title among a couple I have in mind - everything will be on this Patreon's public space).
Anyway.
I fear I might start rambling, so I'll just say this : thank you for everything, the comments, especially the criticisim because it helped me improve and I will channel this energy into making an even better next FF.
Thank you again everyone and, as always, see you in the next update.
PS : I am also searching for two bêta-readers who would be native english speakers for my next FF. Basically your only job will be to read my chapters in advance and correct grammar mistakes etc, as well as give me input when needed. Send an email here if you're interested : [email protected]
PPPS : Send me texts, write me comments, DM me, give me reviews or whatever, just tell me what you thought about the story in general and this ending's more particularly. Honestly just tell me anything lmao, I'll read everything.
