Status Updates From Four Treasures of the Sky

Still pretty good. Still a little bit victim-complexy at times, but otherwise mostly a story about endurance.

And I do appreciate Daiyu’s strength and adaptability as well as her arc from trusting to suspicious to cautiously trusting again.

Exceptionally well written in being compulsive and easy to read. I really appreciated Daiyu’s resilience and coping with disassociating; the right amount of emotional sharpness.
