Interesting idea, but it really could have used extra pages. Especially given that the time skips made the character arcs and plot feel quite rushed. Which was a shame as I really liked the set up and beginning of this short story.

Interesting and haunting lil short story abt... hmm... revenge and what it takes to be satisfied in life. I’d love to read more abt Ziza and Sully but this ending also felt right.

Loved this short story. Feels wrong to call it fantasy, it seems almost too vague of an umbrella to cast this book under.
Fan of complicated world building but the unexplained background for this world really worked for me.
Maybe not built for most but I ate this the hell up. The fist sentences ALONE man. I loved the characters and and I loved how they spoke to each other.

It was an interesting short story following a woman after she murders her slave owners. A lot of gore/horror elements that felt visceral and uncomfortable to read at times. It was interesting to explore the themes of rebirth in this story. Rebirth in terms of her actually giving birth to people and rebirth in terms of living after being enslaved for so long. Not my favorite of the author’s work but still a decent read.
