I am late to the party! I've been so busy with Uni that I'm just now finding the time to sit down and play Cantata. I want to start with the fact I adored Viatica and have always loved your writing, it was amazing! But I will note that your writing has grown significantly. The way you transport us into the world of this story is stunning. All the ROs are so interested and I am deeply invested in each and every one of them which is a rare experience with me since I usually easily pick favorites! I will say, the ending of chapter 4 -- AGHH!! YOU AND THESE DEVASTATING CLIFFHANGERS! It seems to be a signifier of yours. If something has a cliffhanger that tears your heart in two, its probably written by Fir & Fireweed! Amazing work and I can't seem to be more -- also, the secret RO! chefs kiss! what an amazingly written, passionate scene with the reunification even if you choose not to romance them. so much to say but all in all -- great work! Amazing indeed! I can't wait to see how this story continues, how the storylines of the ROs shapes their interactions and the plot...and most importantly YAYY Taking down another evil empire!
