Content Warnings

Graphic: Gore, Blood, and Body horror

Moderate: Sexual assault, Violence, Self harm, Rape, Medical trauma, Grief, Emotional abuse, and Animal death

Minor: Sexual content and Incest

In my opinion, all the content that requires warnings is handled very well, and the abuse is not excused or glorified.
