I mean. It does. Lol. To be clear, there’s nothing “wrong” with it, just not my cup of tea. And to be fair, at least you’re using it as a plot device and not a substitute for character development, so I’m not too stressed.😝 Also, I’m sure there’s implications of some sort in the aftermath of this and based on what I’ve read so far, fully trust your vision. 🤗

Super excited it’s already back. The jump in time I think is a nice touch to separate the feeling and theme of the story from the previous one. Little touches like the growing friendship between Kalian and Aarhus feels more fleshed out than it did even one chapter ago. Absolutely loving that. Still adore Wren and honestly, as invested in the other characters as I am, he’s the one I’m weirdly hoping for a happy ending for. Honestly I’m a little nervous about the last part. Not a huge fan of the “powerful character/entity loses power, character development occurs”. For undeveloped characters, it feels lazy, and for developed characters(like Kalian) it feels unnecessary. Buuut, I’m just some pleb so just my thoughts.

So I typically get oddly attached to characters, but I don’t have the same hatred towards “bad guys”. However, fuck Lex. Take off his fucking hands and drag him behind a carriage the entire ride back to the capital.

Enjoying the story. Absolutely adore Wren. Looking forward to more!
