I've been putting this off for far too long. Binge reading time!

I hope you enjoy!

Love when the plants started talking!

I also feel like you gave the characters each distinct enough dialogue so they felt like they had their own personality, while also feeling close enough to make it obvious that they are family and spend a lot of time with one another.

Excited to read more.

Thank you so much for this. Dialogue is one of my favorite aspects of writing. I'm looking forward to reading what you think of upcoming chapters!

I love how unique this world feels, from the river to the volcano in Maude’s dream. I also really the conversation the trees have haha, they sound like a group of wise women. Looking forward to reading more!
