The way that quite literally almost made me cry--such beautiful prose, such a heartbreaking story, such a gorgeous snippet of a world painted here. I want to both know more about these lovers and leave their story to fade in the wind ;-; Still blinking back tears, this was so damn good
Extremely evocative prose in such a short word-count. Would love to read more about this world, but this glimpse alone is fantastic!
I wish I could read an entire fantasy novel in this vein, honestly. Incredible stuff & such luxuriant prose.
Gorgeous, atmospheric writing! Both endings were great.
Beautiful writing! Your story really captured my heart. Loved both of the endings too! Each felt very fitting.
Your writing is so perfect. It flows beautifully. I can't believe that was under 500 words.
