I liked the foundational concept of this novella, juxtaposing two viewpoints of reality from these characters. But unfortunately that's all I really liked. I suppose the depiction of Nyr's depression was written alright, but there was not enough compelling character development or intrigue within the short page count—besides Nyr's tower in the very beginning—for me to really appreciate and enjoy this little story.
