Amalia is my child and I love her so much <3
Amalia and Zaira have such an interesting dynamic that I love, especially the way Zaira comes to reluctantly care for Amalia as a friend rather than just as her falconer.
For the most part, I liked Marcello but he could be a bit overbearing and too controlling at times. His relationship with Istrella (who I personally view as autistic) was adorable and really showed a deeper level to him and his motivations about working at the Mews.
