Yesssss! The new update will be the best birthday present ever!

Yes!

After replaying the game for the third time since you updated, I think I understand why everyone is so drawn to Telio. We have met one RO thus far, and our interactions with Arthur can be quite complicated. We have to be deceptive with him, at least to some degree, whereas immediately after meeting Telio he is protective of us and accepts us as a half-elf. It also actually makes a lot of sense for the MC to get heart eyes over the second child they've ever met, who helps and supports them. Especially because MC has really had friends before, and they are likely going to seek the feeling of safety Telio provides, since it appears their family is becoming increasingly separated.

Psychoanalyzing aside, all that is probably why a lot of us players fell in love with Telio. It is a testament to your writing actually, that we are so connected to our MC and are naturally leaning into and feeling our character's potential emotions.

Hello! I adore this game and am really enjoying the update. I love the little family you've created, and how you write child MC. Every choice we make, even when it is clearly wrong, feels like something that makes sense for the character. 

I am, however, quite sad that Telio isn't a love interest. I adore him, but I'm sure I'll love the actual love interests as well, lol.
