    I like the atmosphere, but it remains too mysterious and hence hard to connect with. This is the sort of story that needs more space (and words) to breathe and develop. Have you thought about writing a prequel? Or a sequel?

    A big, familiar theme given in a nutshell. One could call it an allegory but it doesn’t have to be. Big themes can turn up in mundane surroundings. Your best story yet—in this humble reader’s opinion.
