Spoilers, just explaining the curse a bit better because the way they do it isn’t great
It’s not that they lack emotions, they still feel them. They just don’t understand what they’re feeling. So imagine all of them are very emotionally constipated (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
To give an example from the novel (spoiler duchess comes back to life) the duchess wants to dig a hole so she goes in to do it. But she doesn’t actually do it because she knows the duke would come and do it for her (which he indeed does). He also follows her around and is constantly trying to seduce her lol.
He’s very much in love and obsessed with her but he doesn’t understand how or why ( ̄∇ ̄")
It’s the same for their feelings to mc, they don’t understand guilt but they can feel it and it does affect how they act towards her
I like that you can see how much they love and adore each other!! Usually, the ml hates the mc and then loves them once they leave, but you can clearly see he already loves Hazel but just won’t admit it. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
I also like that Hazel is genuinely strong and really hard working, though I’d love to see more scenes of her fighting or how she set up the guild. I really liked the intro, where she was the girl with red shoes forced to dance. It gave more details for her personality and past life, it says more than a simple flashback would with plain monologue!
I am excited to see more of this!!! (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
