Genuinely this story was trying to convince us what aeroc did was just as bad as what kloff did to him when it’s just not the case? At least aeroc did not WANT that level of harm to happen to rapiel, it was a single instance of unintentional harm. Versus kloff who literally tortured him intentionally for like a decade. It’s not the same, and one is “forgivable” the other isn’t.
Very dissatisfying. Won’t come back to reread this.
Binged this in an evening - if anyone is wondering if they should read this they should (if they can stomach psychological/disturbing themes)
I came back because I waited forever and foolishly just assumed it was complete … read it in a day to my shock and horror it’s ongoing bro this is SO PEAKKKKK
