- luda305Royal Road★★★★ 4.0This is a coming of age, lesbian romance short story regarding a young woman who plays host to a demon lord's soul. It's decent. The style is interesting, if a little fourth-wall-breaky. The characters are well-defined. The plot is adequate. There's a good focus on the right level of detail and moving along. All-in-all, I'd recommend it.
That said, it's something of a cautionary tale about not questioning your circumstances or, perhaps more egregiously, being raised so as to not question your circumstances. That note is a bit odd, and I frankly thought that perhaps it would be a tragedy at the end. But, the story ends abruptly with the protagonist making a very important choice, and the epilogue is a happily ever after, with perhaps even more happy than would be expected.
It's also probably a hair too short. I get that it's a short story, but there seemed to be plot elements left unresolved. Not sure those would have been terribly compelling as part of the story, but their obvious non-resolution leaves the reader asking for a bit more.
