I continue to love this story more and more every time I read it! The hypocrisy driven by shame is such a powerful and present issue so many face, that it feels strange to have empathy for their struggles when they're so vitriolic. I think you captured the complexity so many of us encounter when we try to rationalize their actions, when in the end it's all driven by emotion. Well done!

I was super engaged the whole time, such an awesome way of putting real world problems in a fantasy context. 10 out of 10 would read again!
