This was intense and sad. The ending was a little ambiguous, but I liked it. It works for the story and the message it ends on. I feel like the whole point was to show how ridiculous a god is that wouldn’t accept a child’s death as sacrifice enough. I’m glad that Andrew and Eric thought it would be worth sacrificing the rest of the world.
