Ah yes the sapphic yearning. I love it.

Damn Soraya really cant catch a break. She escapes to free the pariks and then has to go right back into the fire to get the simorgh feather back. Poor thing.

Yeah Shamhar doesnt care about Soraya. It’s just about getting even for him. Ah if only Tahmineh had spoken the truth. But I suppose there’d be no story then. Im really interested to see how Soraya fixes it.

Ughhhh the Shamhar has won. But there has to be a way to fix this. Fuck. Oh Soraya. Poor thing. Manipulated and used, and yet Im sure not-Azad will call it love. Ugh.

I hate when Im right. Shit.

I think Parvaneh knows who Azad is. Well, I’m sure shit will hit the fan soon.

Telling Azad the feather is in the flame was… not smart. This is not going to end well.

So Azad is Shahmar, right? Call me crazy but he seemed angry when she told his story. That, or he’s a child of Shahmar? Or a follower? I guess we’ll find out

Not sure what I feel yet. I love the Ancient Persian inspired setting. The Zoroastrian styled religion in the story is nice as well, as it’s a faith that rarely gets adapted into fictional settings. Well, unless you count Christianity and its copies I suppose. I’m just very curious where it is going. Obviously the divs are planning something. But not all of them. It’s keeping me invested.

Parvaneh, eh? I wonder why she was captured instead of killed. I smell a stunt.
