I actually like this story. The worlds and settings are pretty fantastic as well as the lore development. There are quite a few things I like, However there are also a few things that rub me the wrong way. I feel the MC is a bit bland. She never really reacts to anything in a noteworthy manner even though her entire world is thrown for a loop. I mean, suddenly grow a tail? Yup, just roll with it. Find yourself in a sea of flame and then appear in front of someone without knowing why? Yup, just roll with it. It's too much of a "come way may" attitude where it begins to detract from her depth as a person. It also seems that the author may have a dislike of men in general. The only good male character is mainly only mentioned as reference as the person who ran the orphanage or one craftsman that's kind of cool. That's it. The rest are crass, fools, buffoons, etc.. Not that I care much because we all have our biases, but if this kind of thing sets you off then take note. Almost ALL the characters are female. For the good parts I think the overall character development and progress of the other characters is fairly nice. The story does go a bit slow on some parts but I think the author manages to balance the speed of combat with the slowness of everyday life fairly well. Sure, there would be a lot of things I would do differently in various situations but it's interesting to see the MC make the mistakes and have to work harder for them even though it doesn't really add to her depth of character. The supporting characters are pretty fantastic, although as a father of a 10y/o, Sylvie is WAY OP for her age. OVERALL its a good story if you can deal with some seemingly almost anti-male undertones. Since the story is good, it's not bad enough for me to really care.
