Slight Update

I've deleted the story "Local Legends" from both FA and AO3. It was supposed to be the first story of 3 that would create the first arc of a 5 arc narrative. Each arc was going to be named after one of the five senses and had stylized cultist runes that created a larger summoning-circle design. None of the other stories came to fruition however.
However, the symbol I used for touch resembled a minimalist talon of a bird, or a chicken foot, or that general shape. 3 lines on top, one on the bottom. A capital Y with an extra line. Turns out, that shape is the life rune, a symbol used by nazis during WWII and then adopted by neo-nazis.
I want to make it clear that I stand with my Jewish friends and every Jewish person, and also stand with POC, especially BIPOC as well. White nationalists and neo-nazis aren't welcome anywhere near myself or my friends, and frankly aren't welcome anywhere that anyone can see them.
The use of that symbol was not intentional, and had no ill will behind it, however I am still choosing to remove that story to avoid the confusion down the line.
TLDR; made a symbol, turns out symbol exists and is used by neo-nazis. story removed that used said symbol. no nazis or white supremacists are welcome here.
