The twist is good, I love a good mistery, but I want to know more

Kind of weird when I see a leader type withold info from their minions like this for the sake of plot. It works in its context though. Really liked this story's twist. Still, feels like the Sisters could have been almost any faction with some form of empathy towards what was going on. Sort of wish there was a but more to them development wise, but good yarn.

Interesting execution of the theme, I wonder what another half page would have truly revealed?

I hesitated to give more hints about what happens to them, but I thought it would be more nerve wrecking to not say a thing :D

Man that twist! Makes you wonder what happened to all those refugees... of course the true horror could be not knowing.

The true horror is not knowing because your imagination probably makes you picture the worst... :D

So, you tried something ambitious here, and I like what you were going for. At the same time, while I get this is supposed to be a mystery with a twist ending, I felt a little too in the dark - I'm not saying I needed to know everything, but as the story is right now there's so much going on that I felt a little lost trying to follow along.

I'm sorry you felt a bit lost... but I'm glad you still enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback!

Most enjoyable, really dug the relationship between the two main characters and I'd love to see more of them.
