This is my first story on Wattpad. I figured lots of people on this place adore romances and dutifully ignore other genres. Sad story, I know right.

Gulps, I'm no good at romance and my opinion is not much of value or by any mean your business anyways.

The more reason it'll lead me to adding an itty bit of romantic element into my strongly high adventure story.

Watch out for the part(s), haha.

It means a lot (ambiguity intended) but here it denotes the quintessential cure-all remedy believed and sought by alchemists to cure all diseases.

That stretchered away, I think we can proceed with the important details.
