To further explain the above, there is a different universe where magic is scarce and people are discribed as addicts. At some point there is a magical item that is described in an addictive manor as it tries to get people to use it (like the ring in Lord of the Rings).

Chapter III is entirely whipping torture of teen boy. Unsure if any necessary plot, aside from last 3 paragraphs, I skipped over it.

A consistent theme in the book is people being possessed by living magic or by the main villains using magic. When possessed by living magic, it kills the individuals.

Main character cuts his arm repeatedly for magical spells throughout the first few chapters; I haven’t read further to know if it is mentioned more later but it seems to be a basic mechanic of the world. So far it is not related to mental health or extremely graphic, but the act and its effects are described frequently.

A female character often tries to look like a man, but is sometimes misgendered when not trying. She is described as being somewhat fond of it

Rhy is a little egotistical and comes off as flirtatious when talking to his adopted brother Kell, but they are never romantically involved. I was concerned when I first started reading that their relationship would get weird but it stays brotherly.
