This story is amazing. The animations in the novel help to really visualize the story more. Writing the story as poetry helped it feel more immersive for me. 

Spoiler: I forgot to add these thoughts at the end, but I do think that the "princess" was living with their family who didn't like who they were, so they decided to have complete control over their lives, hence why they feel like a doll. I think that the whole city of suspira and being kept in a tower to hold the city together was a metaphor of them being kept "normal" as a way to hold their own family together. 

Thank you so much for playing and even making a video!!

Seeing you take a moment to comment about the cathedral being beautiful made my day because it was a pain to draw hahahaha, I also quite loved to hear your opinions about the choices (and I don't know if it was deliberated but you ignoring a blurry "she" to use "they" instead was really cute and appreciated).

I really liked listening (and reading) your interpretation, to me is a story that exists in many levels, the events can be both literal and metaphorical but, I think you got to the core of it, I wanted to reflect on how trying to mold people to a sense of "normal" can be devastating, and how things like prosperity and religion can be used to hurt people.

I think we all know, to some extend, how crushing expectations and being seen as something we are not (or don't feel like) can be.

Thank you this truly is such a beautiful story and noticed that the she was blurred out.
