Stick around to the end of this shorter chapter for some behind-the-scenes worldbuilding chat, where I discuss my influences and how I used folklore and Beauty and the Beast adaptations to help shape the world and the characters. CWs: Depression, and suicide ideation more pronounced here. Blood-letting with antique medical equipment. Needle/injection description begins at 08:29 - jump to 09:00 to avoid the description of the injection itself. There is conversation and some character notes from 09:00 while the blood-letting takes place (it's painful). This whole sequence from needle in to taken out runs from 08:29 - 10:00 . After 10:00 there is mention of wound cleaning.
