April, this chapter carries a strong sense of transition, especially in the line that the Lantern Path is changing rather than ending. That gives the collapse of the Gate more emotional weight, since the danger is not only cosmic but also vocational: Aurora has to leave the place of learning and return to the world where action is required. The humor from Nebula, Thomas, Bramblekind, and Mystique helps keep the scene human inside all the prophecy and pressure, which makes the return to Earth feel earned. Grateful for the imagination, movement, and cliffhanger you continue to build into this world.
Unfortunately this was my last one so far, I have to write more. I’m currently heading back home from spending some time in Niagara Falls in Canada. So even I’m curious as to what’s gonna happen next 🤣
