Again, so sorry for the delay. Life just keeps getting in the way. But we're nearly done, and I promise that it won't take another month to post the concluding 5th part of the story.
I am so, so sorry for the long delay in this one, peeps. There were so many directions I could have taken the story in, and so many ethical facets to consider that I just couldn't rush it. Hopefully what I've come up with is worth the wait.
