This is so good! It reads almost like a novel, actually? It's amazing <3
I really enjoyed how complex the characters were! Everybody's dynamics with each other were really different, and so it was interesting to see how they would interact with each other. My favorite dynamic was definitely the main pair, their dynamic really developed throughout the story and at the end they were just so ???? secure ???? and really supportive of whatever path they -individually- chose with each other?? It is so great??? I was so worried about the character death tag because I got really attached to both of them, haha.
Also, all the lore and backstory about the kingdom was so detailed and fascinating to read about (I have a soft spot for politics!!!). I really liked that one snippet where the kingdom's refusal to send aid to Westflower came back to haunt them and severely strain their relations with the other kingdom. The king's argument for not sending aid had a valid point but you can see what consequences it led to. (Like irl politics. It's so great.) Also the plot was also really great! There's an undercurrent of realism in everything which I really appreciated. The fact that everyone has their own goals and priorities that they /will/ put first above everyone else's was superb!! I also really liked the fact that not everyone stuck together at the end. It really made the ending more whole for me; it's a happy end (?) but it's not a "perfect happy" end. I'm just so happy about this asdfgh ;;
In short: it was really good x 5000
I'm sorry if this comment sounds so stiff, I'm not very good at making them ;; dear author, please take all my love <3
