2.0

This story starts by depicting Pico's journey through unknown lands while coming across blemished characters and their stories of solitude and hardships. However, the story succumbs into darkness and immorality taking Pico into bouts of confusion, bleakness and obscurity with a doomed open ending. Beautiful, lyrical writing with a touch of melancholy but the whole story just falls into the absurd.
