Hi guys, ZhiLantern speaking!

While I was in Japan, "The Crown Prince and His Guarded Mage" just hit +100 subs, and the number of those of you who gave my story a chance continues to rise. I'm here just to thank all of you for this amazing milestone!

When I started publishing, I wasn't sure that Alex's and Will's story would catch the interest of so many readers. I had this story in mind for quite a long time, but English is not my first language, and this is also the first time I've ever written something so long and complex in my life.

I wasn't sure I'd be able to do it the right way. I wasn't even sure it would catch people's interest, because it's a BL with complex fantasy worldbuilding. So thank you for still being here.

However, seeing your comments and your enthusiasm gives me courage, and reaching the first 100 subs is something I never dreamed of. So, thank you so much for being part of this adventure!
