I love the romance in this but why are they glossing over all of the politics because I can't just ignore it when its part of their entire lives ??? Every meeting they have is about the war and how they're adjusting the soldiers around but they are so vague about it. Notable things that they literally never explain:
- Brill was just going to comit mass genocide and Leah would've been okay with it if Roxant was too - was this going to be against the radicals or all Prussians bc it was a bit unclear
-Olga said that hound executed her son and husband - were they part of the war or were they civillians because I think that would completely change my perspective
-The radicals are insane but are they representative of all the Prussians rn ( it was said that prussia is split into many tribes anyways so they might not even have a proper government system, just Anjay leading them ???)
-What is the war even about bc anjay apologised but literally for what?? Attacking the opposing sides war general doesn't really seem like something to apologise for when you're in the middle of a war but ig theyre friends now so I'll let that slide.
Idk if the prequel explains all this so lmk if it does. Also if anyone has a link to the prequel that'd be great because I actually can't find it anywhere
So much happened plot wise but I feel like I don't know anything about the characters? Like at this point the most compelling character for me was Lerry and he isn't even one of the main leads. Also how the hell did Claudia get side lined in her own story - her only character trait is being weirdly obsessed with the mc even though in the beginning she was set up to be so interesting, having to deal with 3 psycho men while being in the public eye.
Hey, at least the art was good( ̄へ ̄)
It's honestly Irene's story though. Claudia shows up well for vital areas of the plot like having an elemental, saving the people during the demon break, and as the empress (which Irene gave to free her from the 2d pathetic FL she was meant to be in the OG). And Lerry is an appendage to Felix, so he's like the 2nd lead if anything, literally vital to the story from beginning to end.
