Awwwwwww, I feel so bad for Marlina. She really is quite pitiable. Honestly I can't adequately express how much I love the way these characters interact with each other. I know I've probably said this several times, but it's so hard to find novels with this level of character depth. To add on top of that, most of the ones I've found with this level of detail either go too far and struggle with pacing or are too dark/tragic for me to enjoy. I know that a previous author note mentioned that Marlina is a future pact head and assuming that's the plan for this arc, I really can't wait to see the day she earns that position. Of all the characters we've seen thus far, I really feel she deserves it.
Yessssss! Please do more of this. Self care is important. Don't hurt yourself :D
Last night, I had a moment of clarity: For the sake of my health and so you all can keep enjoying fun stories instead of getting a literal dead author, I can't keep this up!

The world building in this novel is so incredibly satisfying yo read about. I think I may have said this once before, but I keep being impressed by your ability to spin such an eglngaging narrative. I had meant to leave a comment at the end of the last volume, but uh, I got lazy :P You really do deserve some praise for your handling of Ravenna's arc. I hadn't thought that I could end up liking her character as much as Marlina and everyone's favorite wolf, but the way you rounded out the volume really sold ne on her character. Excellent work 👍 I'm also really happy with the direction of this latest volume. I was really worried about the earlier character stories getting left behind so its awesome to see Marlina getting her time in the spotlight :D
Writing this novel is just sooooo damn exhausting. I hate myself sometimes so much for expanding the worldview LOL. Every day, I gleefully log in, check your comments, whispering "Amen, I love you, bro" in my heart, click "like", and then dive back into the chaos of plotting... Please don't hate me—I love your comments!

Oh you have no idea how badly I needed to see some optimistic foreshadowing after that last chapter. My chest still hurts.
Annelisa exhausted everything to save her child, plunging him into an unfathomable darkness of despair.

Ah....
Annelisa is genuinely one of if not my favorite mothers in fiction. You've done an excellent job depicting her and it's always been so heartwarming to read about her interactions with Ansel. If she actually dies I think I'm going to be heartbroken. These past few chapters have really done a great job reinforcing my love for her character and although I might be able to understand her death from a narrative perspective, oh boy am I gonna cry. And finally, thank you again for writing this novel :D
Nooooo, how could you leave me in suspense like this? I want to be in on the secret too :(
That would be Ansel's undercover persona he used in the black market.
Ahh yes, and the tragedy begins. Man do I feel bad for Ravenna though. Regardless of how weak her motives are, she deserves at least some credit for genuinely working to make life better for the average person.
*immense sadness*
"Ansel no longer needs you."
