Deadass social experiment to see how easily people can be convinced to blame the victim. I used to think its okay to hate Rashta bc the author made her in a way to “make her the villain” but thats just what media does to frame victims in reality.
Ik the standards for abuse are different in fiction, but god forbid if your partner “cheats on you” with a child, I hope you would report it to the police and help the child, not be fucking JEALOUS of a victim of assault.
It happens way more often than you think… my friends mom’s new boyfriend assaulted him multiple times and she sent him to conversion therapy for “seducing him” and “manipulating him with homosexual behavior.”
Well, I chose to hate the author. If the author wanted to make rashta bad from the start, then just don’t show her miserable life and give her that kind of ending. But no… the author showed how sad rashta’s life was, only to make her die in prison, separated from her children like that.
I mean, yeah, rashta had been miserable since she was a child. She was sold into slavery, fell in love with her master’s son, only to have her baby taken away from her and then get nearly killed. Later, she met an emperor who loved her, so of course she took the opportunity. But the author just made her miserable until the very end instead of giving her a better ending, like letting her leave with her children and live happily somewhere far away, while navier (empress) was already living happily too
finally read this after yrs of putting it off… i was uper hyped but it felt pretty anticlimactic :/ like so many plot points were just randomly tied up as if the series got axed or sth
Valerie never actually tells kylus herself, the prophecy was just some hehehhaha bullshit by a crazy old man
Why did the cp have to like valerie?? Like the ending was funny but so unnecessary, give him someone else tf. And yall I thought Victor was supposed to be Serenas DAD like FATHER FIGURE… the shock I had when she asked him to marry her…
Also the crazy woman just died, no build up, crazy guy also died from a very confusing anticlimactic ending.
The best part of this was kylus, and he got relegated to valerie comedic relief prop after ch 50
