I mean it wouldn't have been too much to tell him that he was going to a reunion tbh, especially at the stage of their relationship where it's still a sensitive time for them and especially as they are a same sex couple AND the guy seemed straight initially, i don't blame him for being upset at all, but ig he didn't think of all that lol

That's rly sad, i hope depression could be more understood and taken serious by society someday and we'd have proper support systems for them. I've been there too and i dont even know how to explain it, it feels like your body feels so heavy and something is physically holding you down, yet your brain also feels empty, hollow. You're there but you're also not. But you know what? Everyone deserves a chance at life, to be believed in, or at least the benefit of doubt that they're capable of changing and turning their lives around. So always be kind guys

I really don't think the villainess is that well written of a character, the MC is muchβmuch more interesting, NOW i respect everyone's thoughts here but i know the author attempted to kind of make her into this complex and misunderstood dark femme villain but it's just not doing it for me, like yes let's acknowledge that she was deeply wronged by his lover and she's taking revenge on the wrong people and put these points aside. It's the fact alone that she in fact was already warned by her kin that her actions will not only harm her but the WHOLE existence of mages itself (as i remember it). Yet she ignored the concerned voices of these women. Did she not basically BETRAY her SISTERS for the love of a MAN? She was not a toddler, did she not do this to herself? Already a big minus on my book. So instead of me feeling sympathetic for her idk she just comes off as kind of... Pathetic.
But again these are just my thoughts as a fellow reader. (ββ½β)

I mean perhaps poorly written is too strong of a word? If the author's goal was to make her a likable distressed villain then she's barely taking it. But if the author's goal was to make her a pitiful hopeless helpless girl taking it out on the wrong ppl destroying everything in her way then she is quite excellent

I actually agree. There's just something lacking - something that isn't clicking for me. I get that what happened was shitty but the whole vendetta she has over those that weren't even there... she's just broken at this point. I honestly don't think she's as effective as she could have been. I know she did more harm the first life but, again, the whole revenge against his bloodline falls flat for me. Again, she's broken but maybe that's the point. There's no coming back from this. At the end of the day, I honestly think she hates herself more than his bloodline.

Worst yet is that it all feels like a petty tantrum. She dove into this with all the warnings and when shit hit the fan, she goes batshit and fuck all who get in her way. So many innocent lives lost and she's hellbent to target his descendants not caring that most of her targets are innocent. Wait, lemme correct myself. For all their faults, they are in fact innocent coz the one who did her wrong is long dead.
Taeju just going batshit crazy mad part 2 let's go
