 I got interested due to the aroace / autistic MC and definitely was not disappointed. As an aroace autistic person myself I found a lot of comfort in Alicia's character and the way she navigates the world and interacts with people around her.

 The focus on the Mother/Son relationship was also a really good way to show the routines Alicia put in place and the boundaries there were between Kenny and her. 

I would have wished a bit more of character depth as I really wanted to know more about everyone. I also would've wanted to know a bit more about the elven world in itself I felt a bit confused by the way everything was installed. 

It felt a bit rushed on that side of the story but nonetheless I enjoyed every moment of it and its fast pace definitely had me hooked.
