It’s shows how each character has a different perspective on things. Also, it’s really cute

Sisiphus I’m Greek mythology was a king known for cunning and trickery, and was later punished in the underworld by carrying a boulder up a hill for all eternity. The boulder could represent a ‘weight’ on the shoulder of Sisiphus, or Guwon, which is why we say him blaming himself and hitting himself before carrying out the verdict, a way to symbolize the boulder or the ‘weight’ that the position holds.
Guwon could also be a reference to Sisiphus himself, as that one scene after the kiss when he threw up, which could indicate some form of cunning and/or trickery, and if we assume that he is actually quite well educated and has other intentions for Teach, it could also contribute to said cunning.
Lastly, the ‘Hounds’ as we just discovered are scouts who go in and out of the sanctuary to find supplies, if we imply this into my previous logic, we can infer that Guwon is using trickery to make the ‘hounds’ believe he is carrying the weight of the sanctuary on his back, and using this to gain sympathy and control them.
But that’s just my thoughts
Another cool detail that I think is in here is how Teach referred to the sanctuary (I 4got the real name) as built on a hill and difficult to climb, which I believe is a reference to the story of Sisiphus as well.

this is insanely attractive
Very cool. Thank you!
Beautiful
And only stating what it doesn’t have. Sure, the characters are a little underdeveloped, but overall the story is nice. It’s a large break from the intense drama that BL’s tend to have, plus the lack of SA is also amazing. I think though the main couple should’ve been more developed, side characters like the queen and her brother were relatively well written. The art isn’t honestly that bad, and improves quite a bit over the story.

I had already gotten the feeling that MC was probably su!cid@l, probably because I used to be as well. I’m glad it wasn’t too dwelled on, but instead was lightly hinted at during the final arc. It seems a bit rushed to most people, but finding a reason to live, though sometimes sudden, can become a much needed life line like ML was. I also like how he chose to keep the Prince, reflecting on similarities that the characters had when they were younger. Though only later stating his feelings of isolation, he still went on to protect his people, no matter how lowly they thought of him. I especially liked how he didn’t explicitly focus on his problems, showing how selfless he can be (to the point it becomes a fault) and further developing the nature of his character.
Readers are used to grand displays of character growth, especially in the romance genre, but tend to skim over the more realistic and smaller instances within the story itself.
That’s it from me ╮(￣▽￣)╭
