Avowed: Beautiful, Gripping, and Empty

Avowed first got on my radar when I was looking up free games on Xbox GamePass. I was drawn in by the visuals, the fact it's a roleplaying game, and since it didn't get good reviews I knew my heart wasn't in any danger of being torn into two.

For the most part I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The story was a lot more compelling than I thought it would be, going off the beaten path was greatly rewarded, there was the best romance ever, and there were choices that emotionally devastated me.

But as time went on, the cracks began to reveal themselves.

Ice Cursed

Subspecies
Metis was the child Seitou and Kaliforna, the two leaders of Raven Hallow, that they kept. As the clan's unique form of worship by showing devotion to their deity and dragonkind by breeding new dragons, it was unique that they kept any of their hatchlings.

Over the course of years, Metis slowly lost faith in her parents and believed that a new regime was in order. A feeling that was shared and made stronger by her friendship with Vornz. It was also a feeling that she hid from the majority of the clan.

But her icy heart eventually bled into some of her hatchlings. Those of her hatchlings that were affected became unhappy with any form of hierarchy and tended to live solitary lives.
