So disappointed in Netflix
19 February 2023
This series is quite smart without shoving any one's side of life matters down the throat, so to speak. I love anything to do with fantasy usually and after having watched this series, I promptly watched and listened to it over and over and even Shazamming all of the songs so that I could learn of them. It got under my skin.

The 'bastard son' shows the trueness of humanity on any level. Whether that's just being born from the 'wrong side of the tracks', from the wrong type of people, or of prejudices that we can carry for any number of reasons that we do not acknowledge or know of ourselves, and ofc those that we most assuredly do. It also displays love and acceptance during trial, self growth, doing what's morally and ethically right even in the face of danger or opposite opinion. That saying art imitates life is so true and this series was a great example of that while giving us our so desired dose of grand drama. I'm so very sad Netflix canx'd the show. The adventuring that takes place spins an interwoven story of love, hate, intolerance, undying and blind loyalties, and awakenings beyond them. I know it doesn't seem like that deep of a show, yet it was.

R. I. P. to the death of another good show before it had the moment to gain traction.
