The Boy Who Stole From the Fairy Lake — Chapter 15

Alright, let's dive into the reader reactions for The Boy Who Stole From the Fairy Lake - Chapter 14! 😊

This chapter really hit readers hard, especially concerning San's dad. The overwhelming sentiment? Folks were *not* happy with him at all. 😠 Comments frequently called him out for being incredibly selfish, an "egoist," and just plain "trash." The anger stems from the fact that he originally trapped San's fairy mother by stealing her means to return home, and then, after she finally escaped with their daughter, he immediately abandoned poor San, who had even chosen to stay behind so his dad wouldn't be alone. Ouch!

While the father got the brunt of the criticism, there were some mixed feelings about the mother too. Readers were certainly glad she and the sister got away safely and noted that she clearly loved her children despite her difficult situation. However, a few comments wondered why she left San behind and questioned if she could somehow check on him from where she is now. 🤔

Naturally, the biggest wave of sympathy was reserved for San himself. Readers felt terrible for the "poor child" being left alone by both parents, especially after his touching decision to stay with his father. He's definitely captured hearts! ❤️

On a brighter note, everyone was super relieved to see that San's sister is alive and seemingly safe with their mother. This sparked hopes for a future reunion between San and his sister, hopefully under less traumatic circumstances! 🤞

It was also cool to see many readers recognized the story's roots in traditional folklore, mentioning similar tales about fairies, selkies, and stolen items. This chapter seems to be exploring a darker take on those familiar legends, which readers definitely picked up on. Overall, a chapter that pulled at the heartstrings and left a strong impression!
