3.0
Graphic: Homophobia, Body horror, Hate crime, and Sexism
Moderate: Infidelity, Mental illness, Religious bigotry, Alcohol, Pregnancy, and Sexual content
Minor: Fire/Fire injury and Violence
Complicated depiction of gender and what it means to be a man vs a woman. Hints of transgender themes without featuring any explicit trans or gender non-conforming characters. Elite, light skinned woman dons the skin of a more tanned man. Details on how the skin was acquired, if the skin was from a once living man, etc. is never expanded upon besides the fact that it has been passed down through this wealthy family through generations as if it were an artifact... so read that as you will.
