An interesting idea and I enjoyed the setting and the plot. Onna's storyline was lovely, I could have kept reading about her developing her power. I really loved her initial illusion transformation and I kept thinking we were going to get an even better demonstration of her particular powers during the finale. But it was still cute and cozy. 
However, I will never be able to enjoy Tsira and Jeckran's relationship. Tsira decided what was going to happen from the moment she laid her eyes on Jeckran. D/s relationships are still partnerships but this relationship was only Tsira deciding how things will happen and Jeckran putting up the mildest of fights that never get considered. When he says he's uncomfortable with something, Tsira rolls his eyes at him and thinks he's cute. Jeckran just happens to always give consent after the fact (except before the explicit non-con scene, which I did appreciate). How lucky for Tsira that she never oversteps his boundaries. Except she does and there are no consequences, even when Jeckran is so embarrassed he can't even look at her.
