Maybe mention the corespondences in the same order as the basic element they correspond too? Are corrapindence the soace between the elements? -> Fire -> Electric <- wind -> frost <-> water <-> flora <-> earth <- metal <-

Having read to 210 before reading this, the Prolog felt like a kind of forshadowing of the future. Which made the Realization that this romero is not the same romero an interesting twist, though one others who haven’t read this far wont experience. also makes me wonder about Ben’s dad name. I guess for a new person this just gives the a glimps on the world and whats possible, also that the system is no joke and really will kill our protagonist. Still I wonder if for a new reader this may instead remove some of the mystery element I think its well balanced but only a new reader can validate. I also like The humor at the end as it gives a good sense of the sense if humour in this story.
