Being perfectly honest, this was actually extremely entertaining and interesting. I thought the story was actually pretty awesome... and the characters weren't bland either! The length to me is just right (although I should mention I wish there was more) and you managed to have me spend time on this game enjoyably without any real animation! Fantastical, I must say.
All in all, the art, was beautiful, and the story gave me a sort of folklore-esque story feel... I'd make it 5 stars but I just feel (even though I was still entertained) there really should be some sort of extra spice to this like even the tiniest bit of animation in one scene, or maybe during a specific type of scene, or something like that...
But still, loved it.

A visual-novel, interactive fiction inspired by Nightingale and the Rose. Yes it's linear.
Apologies to Oscar Wilde and Herge.
good plot, but it seems boring that it's just pure texts and images. other than that, plain okay.
Solid effort. Your GUI holds you back greatly, both due to its design as well as having to scroll back and forth all the time. Your story is mildly compelling, and your actual characters are animated fine.
