This was a short, gentle, philosophical exploration of purpose, life and burnout/general fatigue. There isn't a lot that occurs here, but the conversations between Dex and Mosscap were interesting and touched on complex themes and emotions. I did enjoy their dynamic and I loved the ending. The middle section was a bit too slow for my liking and if this wasn't so short, I likely would have set this title down and walked away for a bit. I liked that the ending seems to end on a question and I'm interested to see if Dex and Mosscap find what they're looking for.
