4.0
Graphic: Blood, Injury/Injury detail, and Violence
Moderate: Child abuse, Physical abuse, Emotional abuse, and Domestic abuse
Minor: Sexual violence, Pedophilia, Gaslighting, and Vomit
Although it’s heavily implied that Redemption’s uncle Hibiscus is a paedophile, it is never explicitly stated, nor described in detail. There is some fairly graphic violence towards the end of the story.
