I Think This Line More Than Any Other Underlines Why The Thorn Route Strikes A Chord With So Many People.

I think this line more than any other underlines why the Thorn route strikes a chord with so many people. It's so much more than just the chance for a smooch. It's the one route where the balance of power is more or less evenly split (you have freedom of movement, she has the knife), and both of you have the option to choose trust and growth.

Even in the Spectre route, which is more about atonement and forgiveness than trust, the power balance is decidedly skewed in the princess' favor. When you meet Thorn, the music and dialogue gives the feeling that both of you are equally exhausted from fighting each other, and both want to try to make things better, but neither is sure whether it's possible.

To me at least, the Thorn is special because it feels the most hopeful of all the routes. With patience and trust and understanding, things actually do get better for both of you.
