When I think about it, the whole thing makes me sad for the og louise. Until death she thought her family abandoned her, she never left the imperial palace, the empress mother still abuses her, lyra is still a bitch

Totally agree. And the FL is no better. She was left in the dark and now is being forced to marry a man (right after just getting divorced). Even if the ML is going to treat her better, it does not make it ok. She clearly showed her dissatisfaction when the ML and her family hid his identity and now he is hiding the fact that he intends to get married to HER. HELLOOO, does she not need to consent?! He just acts however he likes. And if she is angry, he just hugs her and magically she is ok... Her personality is also infuriating.

Im really curious why okaya was so obsessed with her son-

I think it's because he was the one person who could defy okaya like. Ok like all that bullying and tormenting all that and her son never broke, never gave up, and never backed down, he kept thriving living and disobeying. Okaya wanted to see him break to him it was basically a game. That's why when he died okaya said he won because he escaped and it wasn't because of suicide. I think
Instantly made me search what pieces are possible to play w only one string lol
Well you can play different sounds pressing the string so.. there must be some o.o
I used to play violin in high school. I usually practice on one string. Depends on technique and ya know dots. It doesnt matter tho..I remember Paganini on this.
Oh a fellow musician *tips fedora* but my speciality was piano so I totally trust you on this! Thanks for the cultural info :)
