Shouldn't that read "she *realized* she would have preferred"?

"Fear and raged war within her" Is there a word missing perhaps?
"You beast! Why have you brought me here," Daphne seethed, forcing the words out. Fear and raged war within her. Her eyes darted to the fallen shards of the crystal beads, now coated with a thin layer of the man's crimson blood. - martbe5mthCommented
I think this line is cut off from the previous paragraph.
they used to give Daphne. - martbe6mthCommentedDaphne pulled one of Atticus's ears, causing him to wince. Daphne might have learned how to master magic, but the act of singing in tune still eluded her. But that was fine, Atticus loved her anyway, warbly tunes and all. When they had children, they would appreciate their mother's bad singing or they'd be disowned.Â

Well, one would need to have at least a little bit of intelligence in the first place to lose it
"I have lost an arm, Hazelle, not my intelligence," Alistair's voice wasn't loud by any means but it still sent waves of fear into the poor woman who cowered in the corner of the room. - martbe6mthCommented
this description is a thing of beauty
At the heart of the ring, the moonstone held secrets untold, revealing flashes of pearly blues, serene greens, and hints of delicate lavender. With every movement, the stone seemed to shift and change, captivating the imagination and inviting one to explore its otherworldly depths. - martbe6mthReplied to saltedpepper

As Iâve said itâs just a detail and the only reason Iâve even pointed that out is the vision of the king standing miserably entire time Atticus was drowning his kids in mashed potatoes. Thank you for this picture sooooo much. (if weâre nitpicking tho ch. 33 says that âAtticus was brought into his chambersâ which in ch. 42 became âhis temporary bedchambersâ. Jeez, I *LOVE* these chapters.)

Mind you such things bother probably just my obsessive brain and no-one else. I just love the story so much and feel it can be even better. â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸

The âtemporalâ thing happened to me in ch. 42 as the beginning of the chapter suggests to me that several days have passed since the âaphrodisiac incidentâ (ââPeacefulâ wasnât a term Daphne could use to describe the next few days of her life in the castleâ, â<You canât avoid His Majesty forever>â, â<He hasnât eaten properly the last couple of days without you around>â). However later in the chapter Daphne thinks about âthe raunchy things that had happened just last nightâ and that âAtticus had a death wish for bringing up last nightâs events again!â. It can be just me as itâs quite realistic that Daphne had avoided Atticus for some time even before the aforementioned incident and Iâm just overthinking.

Famous last words
"I'm not distracted by her nor will I be," Atticus said. - martbe6mthCommented
I really love the melancholy in the description of the curtains looking like "they longed to fall to the floor and cease to be"
Then, Atticus stepped inside the room and found himself growing enraged. The room was practically a tiny cellar. He could cover the entire length of the room in three large strides. There was a tiny bed tucked away in the corner, the sheets smelling vaguely of mildew. Yellowing curtains hung sadly next to the window, as though they longed to fall to the floor and cease to be. - martbe6mthCommented
Dear Author I have to confess something. As a child Iâve been quite patient, never searched for presents before my birthdays or Christmas (and in few occasions Iâve accidentally came across them before it was time Iâve always been deeply disappointed in myself) and obediently waited to unwrap them at the proper moment never ever wanting to go to bed earlier the previous day so the moment could arrive sooner. Now, dear Author, youâve spoiled me. For me the story updates at around 6 AM and first time in my life I found myself looking forward to bedtime knowing that when I wake up new chapters will be freshly dropped and waiting for me. Whatâs even more, I â the morning sleepyhead â have recently started to wake up half an hour earlier than Iâd used to so Iâd have time to read a chapter or two before my day even starts. So thank you Author and congratulations â youâve achieved what Santa Claus never managed to.

Namely Atticus in Ch. 20 đ
Daphne could only nod in agreement, hiding her growing smirk behind her handheld fan. She did, however, raise an eyebrow at the familiar line. It didn't seem like the first time she heard someone describe farts as having the smell of roses, but she just couldn't place her finger on when and where she had heard such a thing. - martbe7mthCommentedPoor Jonah, though. It always did seem like he was a little interested in Sirona. Either that or his affections for the healer were complete lies to hide the fact that he was in love with Atticus. Daphne was sure it was one of the two.
