I absolutely loved this so much but I'm devastated at not getting any sides for Cassian. I know Rael is happy now, so I am not bothered at the lack of Rael side stories (tho I would've been happy for one at least) but Cassian suffered so much. Did he make a mistake? Yeah, but it wasn't put of selfishness or greed or vile intentions, he really didn't know any better method. He had to learn in the hardest and worst way what happens to anything he cherished, and he feared the same fate reaching Rael badly enough for him to pull such a scheme. I am surprised that this bit is the only bit I cried and in this story, considering the worst shit there. I feel truly bad for him because whole Rael is now happy, he isn't. He is content that she's happy even if it's away from him, but I don't think Cassian had his happy ending and that leaves a spur taste in my mouth
