I bolded the parts that are cliche. Maybe that'll help shed some light on why I considered it uninteresting. Smile

Note that the only unbolded parts are those related to setting/background/theme.

Recycling cliches, tropes, and common motifs is standard story telling procedure; in fact it's how some of the best stories are told. What matters is how the pieces are put together, and in this case I think they're put together very well. Although I have a list of issues I'd like changed in MFP, I would never fault TCR for poor story telling. The atmosphere and story telling are both excellent.
