There comes a moment — even in the heart of the most determined ninja — when the mist grows thicker.A moment when you must stop, listen to the silence... and catch your breath.


This is my moment.A necessary pause. A fragment of stillness in the heart of the storm.


I'm going through a difficult time — personal and profound.I need time to gather strength, to heal, to come back stronger.


🌀 Naruto: The Mist Within will continue.Every missing chapter will be brought back.Every thread left hanging, every heart left waiting… will beat once more.


Thank you for your patience, your support, and for walking by my side —through chakra, silence, and destinies woven in the mist.
