- This story reminds me more and more about Game of Thrones. The idea of children not being eligible for succession, but still influencing royal politics.
- I like that this story again illustrates the fact the Rakshasi can be good, not just evil.
- I can't tell whether this story is about royal politics and succession, or if it is a more supernatural story. It almost feels like the politics is the ancient reality, and the supernatural elements are the exaggeration.
- I feel like the five brothers sharing one wife will inevitably lead to conflict.
- The amount of characters introduced is quickly becoming too complicated. I feel like I should be keeping a notepad for this story. The amount of flashbacks and origin stories are also confusing me.
- I feel like even though there are more named gods in this story, they intervene on a smaller scale than in the Ramayana.
- I feel like the story is coming to a midseason climax, it makes it very interesting to read. It is turning into a great revenge story.
