First, I just want to say how good the writing is, I LOVE complex emotions and themes in a story! ALSO, I love how kind of motivating it is as well? It's very understandable why Lysandra hates her brother and holds resentment towards her family overall. I honestly feel bad for both of them in this situation, just a terrible part on the parent's end honestly.

HOWEVER, I LOVE HOW DEEP RAMON'S WORDS HIT. Especially for people who need to hear it. Imagine just hopping on here expecting to play a cool looking story and you're just hit with words and the motivation you needed to hear? (guilty).

But I LOVE this! I love how the characters are written, I love the design of Ramon, I love how deep the writing is, how entertaining it is, I love rooting for Lysandra, and I love the slow romance as well. It's like she feels seen by someone for the first time in her life and its SOOO SWEET! This is one of the few things I've played that can sit right with me and change my perspective on things, even if it doesn't seem that deep (thinking deeply is fun) SO TYSM AND IM EXCITED FOR THE FULL GAME! ^^ (I'm just yapping apt)

I FORGOT TO ADD THAT I HATE THEIR PARENTS THEYRE SO TERRIBLE AND INSENSITIVE. BOOOOO!

Thank you so much for the wonderful, kind words, kitty! When it came to writing Lysandra, I wanted to write a woman conflicted with her familial situation. On one hand, her parents have provided a lot of material things for her and if you do self-insert, don't judge them for queer (the kingdom's very progressive), and food/shelter. These are things she's grateful for.

At the same time, a lot of attention given to Atlas. Her family never gave her that kind of attention, and whenever they spoke of Atlas or the pair, there was always some reminder of MC's "inferiority." She just felt less than all because he was older and the next heir. And they never asked what was wrong, and you can see that when Lysandra's Father spoke to her in Chapter 2. Rather than trying to understand why she didn't eat in the first place, he got upset and reminded her that it made them look bad and that they provide everything for her. The Mother is... interesting because in MC's head, she believes she would say it's okay to give up when times get hard instead of persevering, like she doesn't believe in her.

You'll see more of Atlas in chapter 3 so I won't talk about him. BUT YES RAMON! Ramon is someone that Lysandra needs in her life (and he also needs her) because he gives her the support she's been looking for: he's tough, encouraging, supportive, attentive, a good listener, and knows when to soften up. It's what makes him a great knight and leader: he knows that straight up discipline and constant reprimanding only breaks a person down rather than build them up. He's a good balance.

HAHAHAH!!! The intimacy scenes are quite delicious. As an asexual gal who's written 3 spicy scenes before this game, I'm quite proud of what I wrote for this game because I killed two people on the team with them. 💀 Though I have a huge bias towards the cuddle/ace-friendly option and I think it's JUST AS GOOD IF NOT BETTER!!!

Again, thank you for your kind words. I showed the team what you said and they were so happy after reading your comment and review. 💜
