Raven of the Inner Palace : Episode 6

Current Episode Score: 7

Well this was a very depressing episode. Essentially saying the Raven Consort is just some Gods plaything that they keep around for some reason. Like the God doesn’t even have a good reason for keeping the Raven Consort around, just seems like it enjoys the power and control over somebody.

Meanwhile it puts many things into a different context when she is solving these mysteries and helping the Emperor. Every time she does that she is risking somehow pissing off her God who can just get rid of her on a whim. But also she is forced to help these people who are living out normal lives, lives filled with love and hate and relationships, possibilities and hope for the future. Meanwhile she is trapped forever in a single palace unable to fall in love or have any hope for the future. Just required to survive for as long as possible to keep her God satisfied, and to keep some other unwitting girl from being forced into the same circumstances.
