WAIT NO NO YOU CAN’T JUST GO AND HAVE A STORY WITH NO FACTION V FACTION NONONONONO!!!!
DOES NOT COMPUTE!!!!!
In all seriousness, I had a pretty good time with this.
The pacing was probably the worst part, in my overall opinion.
Setting up the conflict in the beginning better would’ve made the end more satisfying.
I did enjoy the many descriptions, though I think it did remove from the ending conflict, which should’ve been longer.
Still, a good read.
This probably should’ve taken place in the Duchies of Vinci, as schools are literally everything to them, but I’ve read way too many stories about the Duchies this Writing Jam, so it’s a welcome change of pace.
