How I felt about the story -without spoilers

I felt that the story was very well paced, organised and long enough to raise the stakes and develop the characters. Well, this is just my own experience.

There will definitely be people out there who would dislike the story, call it bloated, slow paced, also people who don't enjoy Yangyang and her way of gentle & slow speech. You are free to have those opinions, while I am free to have my own.

But to me, this really was the best intro to a region one could ever get. It's a 9/10 story for me!
