I came back in time to start here, at the first and probably most important episode - unless the last one is.

I was thinking, as I read, personae like Avery are usually created to stir our emotions in a negative way. You, on the other hand, have linked us to her, so that we identify with her as a person - despite your description of lines across her face, her porcelain skin and red eyes - which made her blood an important aspect of the story, cementing our bond as we think of her being in that critical way a human. "Cut me and do I not bleed?"

Still, what bonds me to her is her reluctance to take lives and the fact that she treasures her own and is willing to fight for it - living as we do in a society where most people have given up, her courage and determination is refreshing and an example.

Okay, I'm pro-Avery for now, I just hope she does not let me down....
