I thought this was great fun!
Duchies of Vinci, right?
Saw a few grammatical errors, but nothing that removed from the enjoyment of the story. On one hand, I wish it left a few less loose ends. On the other hand, I know as well as anyone how difficult it is to have a perfect story crafted in 1,000 words or less.
Definitely worth the read.
(Edit: forgot to give compliments on character work. I got a great sense of the leads despite the chaos going on, no given backstory, and no chance to express emotion outside of reacting to battle. That's difficult work. Kudos!)
