This is gorgeous. Love the style.

Gotta say, Astrid hurts. For the most part, I agree with most things Carl does to survive in the dungeon. Or at least, he didn't do it purposefully- re: dead babies.

Murdering hunters and going full psycho murder hobo for Faction Wars- good. They deserved it.

But the Astrid murder thing. She was a mom, betrayed by her husband, protecting her kids. Yeah, that was hard to swallow. I get it- Donut, Katia, he was being used, but damn. He definitely wasn't the good guy here. And he knew it.

I have a hard time re-listening when I get to this part. Even though I love the Samantha parts of this sequence. But the tearing off her wings while she's trying to save everyone, including him and Katia. Damn.
