Really loved this self contained story. I enjoyed the magic system and how thoroughly it was explained. The real highlight was the characters and how their strengths tie directly into their weaknesses. Scionas fight against misogyny while being pretty blatantly racist towards Thomil and the Kwen was a great dynamic to watch play out. The mystery of the blight and how the in-world magic works was another highlight
