3.0

 The Healer: 1 Star. But it's about a girl who is mute from birth and she gets healed at 20 by magic. It really grossed me out and felt disgustingly ableist.

The Stagman: 4 Stars. The ending was a little unsatisfactory to me but I still really enjoyed the story.

Touk's House: 4 Stars. This story felt very disjointed to me. As if the first part and the second part didn't need to belong in the same story. I liked both sections but there was no need for them to belong together. 

Buttercups: 2 Stars. Kind of boring and forgettable. 

A Knot in the Grain:
 3 Stars. It was fine but again it was rather boring and not very interesting.
