When Ease and I were hanging out at FE, they reminded me that there were readers during the very early days of Slightly Damned who were angry at Kieri’s introduction because “she distracted from the story”
We had a good laugh about that

Hey new writers! Eventually somebody is going to decide your story is about something that it isn't. They'll be wrong. They'll be mad you didn't focus on the thing they wanted.
My advice? Ignore them. You can't control them. Focus on your actual intent, not other people's mirages.
