“It is not they who bring the reckoning, Ravyn. It is you. It is us.”
One Dark Window takes on a dark atmosphere and an immersive storytelling that made me not want to put it down. The lore of Blunder is really interesting especially because there is magic surrounding it. The Providence Cards that the characters use remind me so much of tarot cards so plus points for that.
Elspeth and The Nightmare are my two favorite characters. Their relationship is certainly an interesting one because The Nightmare is inside Elspeth’s mind. It’s a surprise Elspeth didn’t go insane. Elspeth is such a strong character who only grows stronger. The Nightmare kind of gives me the creeps but he’s also funny.
I like the romance a lot. Ravyn may have a dark and mysterious aura about him but he’s a soft guy and he asks for consent. I love him<333
