I agree. Can't think of a single good reason why anything that happens in the story, other than the initial murders, matters. *shrug*

Wow. The feels. The feels hit me when I was starting to wonder if more feels would ever come. I love stories like this - short, sweet, and with meaninWow. The feels. The feels hit me when I was starting to wonder if more feels would ever come. I love stories like this - short, sweet, and with meaning. But I docked a star cause the build up felt slow and a little info dumpy in Act 1. I'm not sure if it could have been written any other way considering how short it is.
Goodness, this would make a wonderful short film. High emotional stakes, distinct personalities, a fascinating moral dilemma that was resolved in the most heartbreaking yet reasonable way. I bought this solely because I saw someone I follow here give it 5 stars. I saw the title and cover on my timeline and went for it. Glad I did

DNFed at Chapter 2. The art is dark, beautiful, and awe-inspiring but for some reason the story couldn't hold me. It's not a bad story, I think it wasDNFed at Chapter 2. The art is dark, beautiful, and awe-inspiring but for some reason the story couldn't hold me. It's not a bad story, I think it was just a case of me not being hooked enough. It was hard to get into it in the beginning. Other than our heroine Maika not wanting to die, I didn't understand anything that was going on. I didn't fully understand the backstory, the villains, or the setting. Since everyone else got it, it's probably just me.
