No one’s even talking about these sections because they are so hard to understand and not exciting. :sweat_smile:

I read the first part early in the week, but I still haven’t bothered reading the second part…

I found the second part to be more interesting than the first, personally. It’s also shorter. :eyes:

I liked getting to see more of the foxes. Poor 野火. :<

10 more pages and I’m caught up but nnnngh I need bed.
Also, the 子狐 song has been stuck in my head for the past 50 pages or so.

The first part was interesting for me. It tells us that this story is a tragedy; people could solve the current problem by just talking it out but they just hate each other too much. Also, making sure the people hate the other country as well, because it’s convenient to cast curses.

Hm, I’m not sure yet but I don’t think I will be available at the time.
