I enjoyed this game a lot. It's a short one, but hard. I recommend saving often, and in multiple slots. Spoilers below the cut.

Have you ever wished you were special? That this world was not as dull? When I was a child, I spent a long time wishing psychic powers were real. That I could affect the real world with my mind, given enough training. It's been a decade since, and I still yearn.

Blythe answers my yearning directly - your power is real. There is a whole world of people like us, hidden away. But, a finger curls on the monkey's paw, and you remember this world belongs to the adults in charge. Not to you.  They will of course exploit a power such as this. Your fantasy and yearning turned against you, used as bait by power-hungry zealots.

Blythe is about the alienated child. The child who alienates themself, who yearns for a world of meaning which it cannot find in the real. About not finding that world, and instead being swept up by the dregs of the old world, by meddlesome adults and their stupid ideals. Picking up after them.
