Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: She accomplished the task they set her and comes home intact. She has earned some sort of gift for her son--a fair price, as the Queen said.
Con: We have no idea what kind of gift it was, nor whether it's a good thing or a bad one. Other than that, the story is completely linear; she goes off with the Hunt, her knife works, she returns successful.
