Sigyn
Hey all. I've returned from a fairly recent short-term disappearance. To re-introduce myself, I commonly go by Sigyn, however, I also go by; Sig, Siggy, Siglet (rarely), and Brooklyn. However, I please ask that you only call me Brooklyn if you've been given the OK!
I've been part of Feral Heart since around February 2012. Despite all this game has been through since then, this community still holds a special place in my heart as I'm sure many can relate to.
The reason for my unplanned disappearance is basically because my life became overwhelmingly hectic, as life does sometimes.
I got a new job, new responsibilities, and it took me a while to adapt to these changes. But, now I've settled and managed to get used to how my life runs. I got a new gaming PC about a week ago, so I feel more motivated than I ever was with FH and getting online. The game runs smoothly (I previously ran it on a HP Notebook and it wasn't the greatest, it was picky with the games I ran) and I'm online as often as I was before. The direction in which FH was headed for a while also had me unsure of where I stood/how I felt about things, but regardless, I have the highest hopes for the coming year that things will be better than they were in this one. Now that I have a clear head-space, I realise that I'm ready to come back to the commitments I once had, and the game I really enjoyed being around and on.
I'm glad to be returning alongside Bawfle, who shares my eagerness and passion in becoming active on here once again. See you all around!

I don't really know how to word the reasons as to why I'm returning, really, other than responsibilities settling down and some encouragement from Sigyn who wanted me to return with her.
I left previously because FH was doing really unwell. My opinion of that still stands, despite seeing incredible behind-the-scenes spoilers that a lot of you guys have already seen yourselves which unfortunately may not even come to light anytime soon judging on what I've read but don't take my word for it. In truth, I never really left. Or at least I never really intended to drop off the face of the earth for this... long? I more or less closed a lot of doors within Feral Heart as seen here (https://feral-heart.com/smf/index.php?topic=66994.msg919881#msg919881). However, after a few weeks, my activity dropped completely. Poof. Non-existent. Reason being, over the last 4 Months (in this particular order) I; started a new (part-time) job, started back at college (full-time), my dog of 16 years old unfortunately passed away (euthanasia, chronic renal failure), mental health, and catching up with college work/studying after weeks of mourning my beloved dog.
However, now that things in my life have settled down, some good things have happened such as me recently getting a promotion to shift manager at work (= pay rise yay). Sigyn's mention and encouragement of returning did make me think some and I genuinely do feel quite ready and eager to show my face here again to add a little more enjoyment into my life socialising with all'a yous and possibly opening a lot of the doors that I decided to close once before. Y'know, just to give myself something to do when I'm not doing anything at all in particular.
Anyway. That's that. See you around.
fantastic to see you two lovelies returning, here's to a bright 2020 for you both in regards to fh and beyond<3
