Locked Away (GerIta)

Final A/N

Thank you for all the support throughout this story. Thank you for voting, commenting, messaging me. I appreciate it so very much and I always will.

This is a story I have always wanted to write. At points I never thought I'd finish it, thought I should just discontinue it, even unpublish. This story is in no way perfect, it has flaws. For god's sake I made Auschwitz in Germany because I'm an idiot and all history and geography lessons flew out the window.

Maybe I'll fix it some day. I don't know.

This has been a wild ride. And I'm sorry for all of you who wanted a happy ending, trust me I do too.

But this story was never truly meant to be completely fantasy. I wanted realism, truth. World War II did not have happy endings.

It was PTSD and death and loss and pain and often ended in suicide. War crime trials did take place, Nazi soldiers went into hiding and were found guilty for murder and countless other things. It didn't matter if they were sorry.

I never had a happy ending in mind for this story. And this is the way it has to end.

Thank you again, for all the support. Hopefully audience numbers will pick up again but I could not ask for a better audience that has supported me through this whole thing.

Thank you.

Until next time!
