Wow they mentioned Rafiki! Such a good film btw. A definite watch if you can. I’m not usually a BL reader normally but this looks too good to pass up. Excited for the next chapter:)
I think she's feeling intense survivor's guilt. All of her comrades and war buddies died in battle and she not only survived, but is thriving in some ways. I feel bad for Chris and hope the story helps find a way of her dealing with the trauma.
Uhhh a concubine??? She’s a warrior god dammit. Not that there’s anything wrongful with sex workers but Paulina isn’t person you hide away in a separate castle. She deserves better respect and if that’s how the king is going to treat her I just don’t know...
