I liked it a lot but the ending was unsatisfactory. Did Chu get healthy? Did the emperor recognize him? What about Su’s father? Isn’t she a Princess in his land? They wrapped it up with a terribly rushed HEA ending. ☹
The end came abruptly without resolving many questions. We don’t even know how he feels about her, whether he really can see, if it was him that rescued her at the beginning, etc. WTH.
Excellent writing, very original story! It does get quite deep and sorrowful in places, beware.
