      Status: end of arc i

      This is a very good story with well thought characters. Can’t say this story is for everyone, not your typical fantasy lighthearted with a heroic protagonist. The protagonist has her flaws, her characteristic suit her background, the author didn’t sacrifice the character for the plot, which is very important in my opinion. Sentences and delivering could be improved, but for comparison purposes with others novels on this site, a solid 8.5/10 and 5/5 yeah.
