and if I may add, that wasn't a love triangle at all. rion was introduced as her destiny even before isaiah came. poor isaiah was made a third wheel.
Genuine question, why do you want for the mc to forgive Noah?....
they really leaned too much on romance for that ending. the first half of this manhwa is mainly about her relationship with her family. though I admit that how she stood firm about shutting them out was hella satisfying, the development from there was such a let down.
probably because after the time skip, the male leads simultaneously entered the stage, too. but after rion came to firenze, ashtarte's family became useless. and Idk why they'd describe the emperor as someone cruel, and someone who doesn't believe in oracles, but proceeded to make him do the exact opposite. because if those were true, he wouldn't have isolated ashtarte as a child, unless he did it out of spite for rebecca, ashtarte's mom.
I get it, it's a romance manhwa, but I don't know, whenever I think of how ashtarte was crying as she holds her bleeding father, how she healed him saying she doesn't wanna lose anyone anymore, then stood up thereafter to go towards her love interest... perhaps nothing's wrong with it, but I expected maybe a 'hug' between the female lead and her father, not the male lead.
imo, reconciliation or closure is a must for a happy ending. I was very happy that she left firenze, I was wishing for it. I had hoped that she would leave the empire with rion, but I didn't expect her to leave without goodbyes. I understand why she hated the crown prince and the emperor, as well as ryllie, but I wished she could've atleast made up with noah. then again, romance was the main genre, so I guess that was too much to ask. I only skimmed through the epilogue, I expected as much, but instead of tying some loose ends, they introduced another character instead.
I liked it, but I won't probably be reading it again.
