The slow unfurling of the mysteries and the slow unfurling of the relationships are well done despite some very dark background context.

Not as good as the first one but I still really enjoyed it. I loved seeing their relationship blossom and seeing more of who Tristan is. Loved the found family vibes. The plot progression at the end was also beautifully executed.

This time Morana and Tristan made more sense and they fit together better. Plus everything wasn't so repetitive.
