The vibes were strong and I gobbled this up for sure!

I would have liked to see

Ophelia step into her own power more. She definitely did grow in her abilities and confidence, but she still used Blackwell as a crutch in the games many times.

I also didn’t find the “twist” all that surprising given the first line of the prologue...
