@gwhyang Thank you so much for this truly insightful comment. You've hit upon the precise, bleak heart of Rose's journey and her unique take on the "Collector" theme.
She's a person of painful clarity, fully aware that she's toying with genuine affection, building her salvation on the broken hopes of others. There's no delusion or plea for forgiveness; just a cold, unwavering resolve. And in that very resolve lies her own tragedy: perhaps even her profound love for Lily, at its core, is a desperate, selfish imposition of her own desires.
It's incredibly rewarding to know this complex, morally grey exploration of love and sacrifice resonated so deeply with you. Thank you for playing and for such a thoughtful observation. ✨
