>>66582162Thank you for the review. I'll be sure to fix those formatting stuff in second.
>They sometimes feel more like a footnote for the world's history rather than a scene meant to give meaning to the coming actionsYeah. I think I should relegate it to one flashback a chapter unless the situation is very closely tied into it. I'm still experimenting with how and where I want flashbacks to be and what they contain. I want to give context while still leaving some things up to the readers imagination. It can be a bit of a tricky balance.
>but I think the scenes prior lacked a little oomph to their prose, which sometimes made the reactions being conveyed a little hard to followAs in like it was confusing the way it was explained or that it needed more flourish to make it pop better? Or both?
>A person and their familiar is always a fun angle to explore and flesh out thoughI'm excited to finally give Botan and Balsa their due. In Act 2, when Botan will be flying solo for a while, her and Balsa will have a lot of room to play off each other so I hope that'll be as fun for you as for me.
Thanks again for the review and for reading. I always look forward to seeing your perspective.
