Love Game In Eastern Fantasy

We have a solid plot with fast paced storytelling. Thankfully, the drama does not spend too much time in the dramatics, but, being a drama, expect: tears, declarations of friendship and love, loyalty, sticking up for each other, heroism, self sacrifice etc. Though there is good suspense that is held with strategic plot reveals at different points in the story, towards the end, the reveals tend to be plot heavy leaving us with a slightly ambiguous ending that could have been dealt with and explained better.
