Some twists were meant to be called! They taste sweeter when you can say "I knew it!" lol
I'm thrilled that you found a lot to love about each character. Also, a million points to you for mentioning Rezan, I adore them and A Tale of Crowns! <3
I'm also glad that you felt the frustration of the curse as well, and you are indeed correct. You'd never know how much I love MC in this with how much I'm putting on their shoulders, but it serves a purpose. ^_^
You are very welcome, and it is my pleasure to bring this story to you. I've got Ch 7 under construction and I'm so pumped to get it finished!
