I found this story for the first time through this version and loving it so much I rushed to read the old demo too. It had me so hooked reading it I risked staying up way too late to try and finish it lmao. Just has me all that more excited to see what difference you'll be making and overall future updates. You are truly such an amazing writer!! I think it was Chapter 4 in the original demo that genuinely made me tear up a bit to see the MC's childhood and how much they've struggled. Made the current relationships and how they've deteriorated all the more painful. I also love the MC's and Vethna's relationship - the dynamic is so lovely. With how well written everything is i'm absolutely going back right after writing this to re-read to explore the different relationships and names (ily White Wolf lmao). So excited for future updates and where you're going to take this story. Definitely a story i'm going to non-stop think about for a while now!
