Thank you! I, of course, can't give any definitive answers about what happens with Vera, but I think you're right to hope.

Everyone say thank you to Silas for the preservation of the narrative (well that's been my theory at least and I know I'm not alone). This has been quite the journey, glad I was part of it from the start. The ending was happier than I expected. Hope you take a good break now that you're free from serialization at the moment.

Aw man what a lovely, bittersweet ending. I love that it's a little ambiguous, a little inconclusive, but not totally heartbreakingly so. (also, love that the cat stuck around!)

I can't believe it's over! It's been so much fun going on this journey, thank you for all the work you've put into this and for all the fun insights you've shared over on Patreon. I'm excited for what's next, on whatever timeline it happens!

I didn't get to write a comment yesterday because I read What Manner of Man late into the night (as the old gods intended) and the tears also slowed me down significantly. Thank you so much for writing the story of Victor and Alistair! It moved me in many ways, and I know I'll be coming back to reread it in the future.
