I love the use of Old English here, it really adds to the atmosphere! The tale of Bluebeard was nicely interpreted and I could feel the intensity from the get-go! Nicely written! I liked it a lot. :>

Great

This was fantastic! The use of older English was so well done here, it felt like I was interacting with an old play! The dialogue is just immediately tense, as I tried to figure out how best to catch the man unawares. I'm really interested in seeing the second act!

Thank you! Big shout out to Tommy Sullivan-Lovett, my good friend and resident Early Modern English expert in my life.

This slaps severely, and not just because the VVitch is my favourite movie ever. I think you captured the language of the time really well and I think the formatting was effective in conveying a back and forth between two people who know how to manipulate each other (even if one is better at it than the other). It felt almost like reading a stage play :) And the sudden shift in dialect at the end was morbidly hilarious--I'm looking forward to the other 2 acts

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy where the story goes :)
