All I'm sayin' is, Anait is pretty much the best fairy tale ever? A village covered in words by the villagers! Seriously creepy fake priests! Forced cannibalism in a creepy underground lair! The clever, peasant-turned queen heroine ARMING HERSELF TO THE TEETH AND LEADING HER PEOPLE AND SWOOPING IN LIKE AN AVENGING GODDESS to go rescue her King! I am pretty sure I've never seen a folk tale heroine as badass as Anait.
