Heinrich calling Alice "liebchen" did something to me on a cellular level I'm not gonna lie yes he's a monster yes he's killed and terrified and tortured people and feasted on their dread for decades and y e s he will do it again without so much as an afterthought but he cares he actually really cares for "his" humans the way a blood stained hunter suddenly cares for a terrified orphaned leveret and holds him like the most fragile of treasures in his gore covered hands I'm howling yowling gnawing at drywall if anything happens to him I'm going to bawl my eyes out until I have no choice but to gouge them out.
why is dev associated witht he fey? if that isn't secret
Well, Dev used to work for the fey back when xe lived in Los Angeles. In fact, xe rose to a pretty prominent position in fey society (prominent for a human, at least). But xe left—for some unknown reason—and moved back to Casper. So that's the basis of why xe's associated with the fay...
But that doesn't explain why Dev—a human—gives off faint fey energy. That is... unusual... to say the least.
Hi ♡ I don't know if you already answered this but I'm new here and recently discovered the demo (which I loved): How the descendants came to exist if everyone in old porthecrawl is trapped on the same day? Like, they sent their children outside the ward? And if it's different timelines, then the ward wouldn't have mattered anyway because in that timeline the disease would have continued, right? I'm confused x.x love ya author ♡
Hi, so I can't really answer this fully without spoilers, as this question is one the MC has the chance to learn more about over the course of the story.
I’ll elaborate a little below, for those of you interested...(no major spoilers)
But I can say that the descendants have no idea how or what happened. They've more or less mythologized their own history through guesses and what basically amounts to ancestor worship. Deciding whether your MC believes it or not is going to be up to the reader and what MC does with that discovery (as it stands now) impacts Book Two.
But I can promise that both issues you brought up do get addressed! Not in every route, but I want to say you can make the discovery in at least three of them.
Suffice to say that the Old Family story basically says that the ancestors put up the wards to contain the spreading illness. Children were sent away and returned to what was basically an empty, but saved ghost town, and from that point on, the family lines were able to continue and prosper.
