Finishing the game, I screenshot the different passages that show up during the titular Blunt Soul Trauma. The act of comprehending what was wrong with Alexis felt perverted. It put me in the shoes of Ferida and maybe even Haydee to some extent. But after attempting to machine translate some of them, I had realized it was more ambiguous than I realized.
The ritual involving souls unnerved me on a personal level. But with this little experiment, I'd wondered if my efforts to "forgive" or "understand" Alexis was the intentional effect. One would try to make sure they aren't blindly loving an actual criminal. But another would probably want to understand how they got to this point.
Aside from all of that, the world implied outside of the story is really interesting. There's a lot to infer about angels, from how their corpse decomposes to their halos. It played a massive factor in getting me invested in this angel's intentions (while they put Ferida in the human's intestines).
Your comment really made my day! I'm always happy to hear people's interpretations of what I write, and your way of seeing Alexis and the soul merging is very on point and interesting. I'm glad you enjoyed the game and got out of it what I intended, and also that you liked the worldbuilding :D
