Yeah, didn't want to know specifically about events, just general mood :) As said in original post, wasn't trying to be critical, because it was a very well written story, and fits into the world well. It's not the darker mood content in itself I had an issue with, just felt it was a little too much depressing stuff in one go, because up until now been a good mix of lighter and darker content, and this one was almost all heavy. Just jarring in comparison to that previous content - e.g. the Lin event in 0.11 (I think, sorry if wrong patch) with queen being offset by the Felicity/Emma/Ash stuff.
And yeah, got the Ash event was meant to be uplifting at end. Sorry, badly worded that in original post. Just that the crying/memory kind of made it seem less cheerful than I expected it to end, even if she was technically happy.
