@beepboop1 That'd be nice, an adult tanya. although i personally hope tanya can get her well-deserved rest i doubt it will arrive anytime soon.
also the only way i can even fanthom the way they're trying to blame the Empire is something along the lines of "they went too far and should not have counterinvaded these countries" thou typing it out alone makes me feel weird. I wonder if the author will ever properly explain the population's feelings (from the surrounding countries). then again it could be full on patriotism and nationalism and people just want an excuse to grow their power.
