time loop stories are always a bit of a mindfvck for me, and the six deaths of the saint is no different. what differentiates this one, however, is how short and concise it is, yet it still packs quite an emotional punch. the saint and gwynne's story also ends up being surprisingly touching towards the end, and the former's character development - albeit over centuries - is great. the externalities arent overly highlighted as the story's so focused on the saint's inner life, but it's def an interesting one.
