Started read it this morning, and reached the end of current content this evening. Very good story for scribblehub. If you're ok with a lot of angst and functional prose then it's a decent read and worth giving a go!

This is a story of three parts really, any of which the story could have ended at or been their own novel. Personally I think Part1 was strong, start of Part2 was good, large parts of Part3 are good,

Part1: Backstory, ascension to godhood, resolving the primary plot. It doesn't break the mould plotwise, but has an interesting mystery to resolve and manages a pretty good version of the " protagonist dropped into post-timeskip world, now is OP". 

Part2: Lots of feel good and timeskipping through building a utopian world. If you enjoy worldbuilding this might do it for you, but it's not in any great depth, there's no great plot driving things forwards - just lots of little side stories, main character cast growing, dealing with their angst... maybe authors view of what a uptopian society looks / works like?

Part3: We're going interplanetary now! Plot restarts - we've got a new world of injustice to resolve via a new set of characters coached by the old set. There's even some romance! So it's an upswing, but expect far too much of "lie down & dream of the goddesses & all problems will be resolved via a conversation". The tone is kind of jarring - at this point I'm bored of the old characters and was mostly skipping their interactions with each other. There's some real tonal whiplash of going from "arming a slave uprising" to "goddess giving concert in bikini - are bikini's now divine attire?!"

Ultimately I enjoyed it, and want to finish the current story arc, but not sure if I'll follow along regularly.

Undoubtedly, this story is one of the better interpretations of a mortal's ascension to godhood status that I've had the pleasure of reading on this site. The author paints a great picture in Menelyn; broken but willing to make the effort to rebuild

her life follows a very peculiar trajectory that falls in place with how the world has perceived her existence, not unlike a fish swimming along the currents of a river.

This novel deserves a read.

I've read the entire thing on Royal Road, including the Tale of Izenakee and everything so far from the Tale of Twilight, which the author seems to be waiting on bringing over here. Also, this is my first time writing a review.

The start is really good, tasteful flashbacks are used to help you really feel what Menelyn is going through, and grieve with her over the death of her sister, despite her having been killed before the story begins (not a spoiler, it's literally in the synopsis). That's pretty much as dark as the story gets, as the rest of the story is about her getting reacquainted with the world after her years in isolation, coming to terms with who she is in the eyes of the world now, and getting catharsis.

There are two 'tales' that come after it, where we see the consequences of her actions as the world develops due to the unique circumstances it finds itself in (I won't spoil that part). As the tales go on, there develops a definite light-hearted and fluffy atmosphere, and a lot of the tales is that fluff, there's still some serious stuff going on, but it's mostly about characters navigating the mental effects of being in their position.

I'll admit, the exact 'vibe' of the story definitely goes through some changes, it starts pretty heart-wrenching, and slowly progresses to pretty fluffy, and in the most recent arc there's some more serious things going on but the atmosphere maintains it's light-hearted nature, but all of it is good, so...

This is, in my personal opinion, the best mortal to godhood story on the internet. On top of that this story is one of the better ones at portraying Good Goddesses and how hard it is to be a Good person/deity. I'm excited to see where this story goes, and what the end of the journey might look like. I highly recommend giving this story a read.

As far as I'm concerned this is the only mainly fluff story on this site worth reading, very well done. (Also "the laboratory at the end of the world" is such an epic phrase, gave me chills)
