And of course, neither of them ever actually act on it. Of course, what happens instead is that all sorts of new, strange feelings are ignited between the two. In addition, this is Ayla’s chance to exact revenge on Sovereign Hesod for her family’s deaths – by killing Lady Crier.
She knows she can’t waste the chance to spy on the Scyre Kinok, one of the key figures in the Automae government an Crier’s fiance. She’s eventually appointed handmaiden to Crier. Meanwhile, Ayla is an orphan and a servant, and burns with the desire for revenge. Crier is the epitome of Automae grace and beauty and lives in the lap of luxury. The two girls could not be further apart from each other. This really is the sapphic representation we deserve because most of us are useless sapphics who wouldn’t know flirtation if the object of our desire danced naked in front of us carrying a neon sign.
Varela wasn’t fucking around when she said that this book would be slow-burn. Content Warnings: Death, violence, torture, suicide
