Thank you so much for this new release!
It all started a tad dark with the flashback, got lighter with Lucas playing with magic and Athy, and then tense again with the short but intense face to face in the end... We really got a bit of everything in this chapter hahaha
I'm not sure about Jeanette being heartbroken or anything though? At least, I don't feel it at all as a reader from what I've read so far: we know from the "original story" that Jeanette and Ijekiel ended together, but in this timeline she's barely ever shown that she was in love with him, she was always focused on her father and sister; though it was clear he was special I guess, and I remember in the first chapters of the series how she kept on clinging to him as a child before he went away a few years for school...? But it felt like the typical attitude of a kid whose playmate and sibling was going away better than some love story, and she was way too small too 😅
