FAQ: Ardent Tears: Awakening - an Epic Psychological Fantasy
For the most up-to-date information about the status of our project, check our project updates on Kickstarter!

Why are the standard copies only available in the UK, EU, USA, and Canada?

As we are running a fairly small operation, we don’t have the infrastructure required to confidently deliver worldwide on a large scale. As such we chose to limit a few locations in order to ensure delivery and affordable shipping. You will be able to get physical copies in other locations at later date through amazon, however.

Why are the signed premium copies available to the rest of the world then?

We didn’t wish to deny anyone the chance of getting a signed copy just because of where they live, especially as they are a limited run. Furthermore, due to the limited nature of the tier, we feel confident in being able to ship further afield.

Are there any content warnings I should be aware of?

Yes. Most definitely. On the tamer side it deals with aspects of sex and nudity with varying levels of explicitness. More importantly, however, this story deals with: Graphic Violence, Psychological and Physical Torture, Visceral Trauma, Suicide, and Slavery. It is not for the faint of heart.

You mentioned the MC is poly. What does that mean?

It means that she has the capacity and an interest in loving multiple people at the same time. This does not mean she will be unfaithful to her partners as the practice of polyamory is one of consent and communication. She also won’t have a harem as that suggests a specific dynamic that she has no interest in.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
