I haven't read this yet, just the latest chap, but what happened to the uncle? Is he dead?

He just disappeared is I remember correctly (I was under the assumption thst he ran away, and I think that's what the story wanted people to think aswell!!) Mc got a note from his uncle to go to the farm ૮₍˃֊ ˂ ₎ა so it didn't sound like he had died haha, but I don't remember the exact wording for it ꒰ᐢ. .ᐢ꒱ he's just "gone" atm

Spelling mistakes omg ૮꒰◞ ˕ ◟  ꒱ა

Ohh icic tyy
