Solis is by far the best part of this VN. I say this because I really like how unique he is as a character. The "full helmet knight" character is typically stoic and doesn't show emotions easily, but Solis is the opposite, displaying a ton of emotions despite being mute. He's also obviously quite close to the MC since before the story even starts, and it's rather sweet to watch. His sprite is also well drawn, as are the other characters'. Now, the other reason I emphasize that Solis is the best part is because, to be quite honest, the VN is rough around the edges otherwise. I understand that the time constraint was an issue and thus the VN is basically unfinished. But the script is riddled with typos, and there were blank backgrounds for a lot of the game's runtime. The story is also somewhat hard to follow, with the focus being a bit all over the place, and the characters' motives being unclear, particularly Lillia's and Engil's. While I think I understand the gist of the story, the fact of the matter is that it's muddied under all the imperfections. That being said, don't get me wrong. I really do like this story, and Solis definitely leaves a lasting impression on me, especially with his backstory. Lillia's backstory was also good, and the resolution to both stories were satisfying. I just hope that you're able to take all the time you need to polish this into the great VN it could be, because it deserves to be completed. Still, thanks for submitting what you have so far! It's an admirable effort and I liked it.

Ty for the review! I agree about Solis, I never saw a mute character in a VN before so I wanted to give myself the challenge and I'm happy that it turned out well! I agree that the story is... Really scuffed... But it's been growing on me so I'll be sure to improve it and make thus VN shine like it deserves!
Ty for your time and I hope you have a great time reading the other entries!
