a family of emotionally stunted men acquire a cinnamon roll who teaches them how to express themselves more healthily.. but you throw in HELLA FUCKIN TRAUMA for the FL and a pretty fleshed out magic system. the desertification of the estate is also really interesting, and i hope the curse/magic are developed more (i want a training arc).. HOWEVER.. they put a leash and collar on a child, which is WACK as fuck. harness have existed since like- 1500BC. i’m sure some high class tailor could make a fancy harness. (⊙…⊙ )
the FL is also severely traumatized, and every powerful man in the story post fire, is highkey threatening/abusive and manipulative. the ducal dudes aren’t as bad bc they feel pity for the FL almost immediately and start to dote on her (in their own weird ways). idk if the trauma the FL experienced is ever gonna be addressed aside from these CPTSD flashbacks.. and the fact that the FL has to spend time with what is essentially a corpse to supposedly “bring her back to life” with magic. oof. that can’t be good for her psychosocial development. Σ( ￣□￣||)
it’s not a bad read.. but the more you learn about the FLs role in the world and her past, it’s like fuck bro- she’s only 10! but she’s cosplaying as 8. they also beautify the effects of malnutrition. “yeah she’s starved to look younger” but has seemingly healthy skin, hair, and teeth.. those don’t go together. “teacup” animals, AKA animals thatre stunted due to malnutrition (and pisspoor genetics) usually have short lives and health problems and she’s already near burned to death TWICE does the author/artist get off to this?
