That's really kind. It's a really interesting challenge trying to create a whole narrative in first person and to do it in such a short piece as a letter. But I'm glad it worked out for you.

I'm.glad you liked it. I really appreciate the prompt. I had a good time researching it, and was particularly took by the stories of the workers who suddenly found themselves without work. It seems like such an amazing undertaking to have sadly ended up that way. But in a weird way, I'm kind of glad for it. Had it remained a kings castle, it might never have become a place where the public can go and be amazed.

Thank you! I have a couple more drafts for days 9 and 10 I hope to do today. So fingers crossed I can keep the quality level up all the way through. ☺️

Yeah, I think it's something that stories have touched on before, that children are less beholden to their own expectations of the world, I suppose because by and large the world is still relatively new. I think even as adults we can always sense when a person near us has a filter of curiosity or a filter of rigidity. I like to imagine that rabbits can feel that more keenly and respond to it subconsciously.
