* {{Doorstopper}}: confirmed by [[WordOfGod by the Author herself]] that the story will be this. For an example? The story is to be expected to have ''95 to 110'' chapters by the time it reaches its end--and that's counting the ''extended'' parts to a chapter. It's because of this estimated length that the author takes their time updating the story (and revising any early chapters) and often has to take a hiatus in order to regain motivation.
