Not much horror to be honest. More angst I think. I was kind of cute but a little sad to me for reason.
I can't tell if I like this or not but it was good.

...Holy Duck! XD
It's good, I like it. (This pairing needs more support!)

Chilling and heart-wrenching. Power can corrupt terribly in the face of desperation and despair, and that corruption is so interesting to explore.

I also find your characterization of Fakir very interesting and satisfying, even if it's frightening and heartbreaking. So many people have him settle completely and contentedly into the role he has at the end of the story, and while that isn't wrong, it isn't to my taste. I interpreted his and Ahiru's final fates to be sacrifices made when it seemed there was no other way. It's nice to see him portrayed as longing.

Uh. tl;dr, I enjoyed this very much.

Hehe. Great
