also, unrelated, but I think it might be a cool idea to add an option for headscarves/veiling in character design!! just a thought tho so no pressure ! ! ! ! ! K LOVE U BYE <3

The setting is pre-Islamic, and the religious influences are Zoroastrian, which used to be a huge part of Kurdish culture before colonization and forced conversion. It wouldn't make sense in the story's cultural context.

I READ IT

(SPOILOERS BELOW!!!!!!!!!)












omg. "patiently yours" "yours as well" . cherry i actually cried. also the way you write?????? insane. actually incredible. i dont remember the exact wording but it was an analogy/image about xelef's villages bones and how he was carrying it and i was literally like. i could write ten billion essays on this phrase alone. insane. another explosive display of talent from esteemed author and philanthropist cherry

i also love love love how the story is progressing with x so far, and i love love love the way courtly intrigue is starting to pick up (crazy theory, but i'm kindaaaaa sus of keko..... what the heck.........i better be wrong cherry or i will cry !) and also kham is best character. wonderful wood woman. also heval! ! ! ! ! !!  such a slay character. their interactions with x??? especially in this chapter?? AUGH!

also what the hell cherry i know me and x are not in a commitied relationship yet but them sleeping with someone else had me ! surprised! but then it forced me to consider their character in a more intimate and reflective fashion and it just made me value them all the more as a unique individual and it was just. real. like so real. ur such a good writer what the heck.

this is the longest spam i've spammed u with. i'll leave u alone now. but absolutely adored this chapter, and you should be sos so sos os so PROUD of what you've done and what you've accomplished and just who u r as a person. i love u.s o much. i love AToC so. much.

k love u bye <3

Thanks so much for the lovely comment , it was fun to read!! I'm especially glad you could appreciate X's evolving character arc in this chapter 💖💖

Agreed, I was surprised, but then I realized that X can't handle any of his problems correctly without us XD  He needs us to pressure him. The idiot.

X is actually handling ALL of their problems without you, they're cutting you out for a very good reason. I wouldn't mistake their personal trauma and their very real concerns about the Crown as them just "being an idiot"? X is one of the smartest characters in the whole game, the Crown literally would be dead without them. At this point in time X has no obligations or loyalty towards your Crown, because you haven't done anything to earn it.

From all your comments you've posted on this page, it sounds like you don't understand X's character arc whatsoever, and it seems X doesn't like your character either since you have a low relationship with them. I would recommend trying another LI lol.

Hmm, gotcha. I guess I felt like they were close.  I know I made one mistake with him for sure.  I might try to go for another few runs, do another X and an A then maybe. Thanks for the insight :)

Not at all what I meant when I posted my initial comment/review on the chapter and X's route! Please do not misconstrue my opinions with this commenter's.

X is a fiercely independent character, who possesses astounding strength, both physically and mentally. They do not need the Crown--they have known each other for like a month at most (if I remember correctly). 

And I really, really dislike the phrase, "He needs us to pressure him." Does not sit well with me.

No hate at all intended--just wanted to specify my own feelings!

I was replying specifically to the commenter, not you!! Itch.io just doesn't know how to handle multiple replies in a single thread lol

Sorry to have caused such turmoil amongst the group!  I should have definitely rephrased that, more that he hides from everything and needs somebody to tell him "no nonsense" every once in awhile.
