This was so sweet and sad and filled with magic and hope. It has the right balance of political intrigue with love and magic. I do not know the original folklore the story is based on, but it doesn't matter. This queer retelling was perfectly sweet with heartbreak and hope mixed throughout. It seemed at one point like there were a few too many elements, but they all tied together and became the right amount in the end.
