Sands and Sparrow by SaoirseHavisham
The prose was beautiful - almost lyrical. I like how sophisticated you were.
You had some comma splices but they were quite rare - you combated them often with semi colons which was good.
I found the chapters were too long and they dragged on a little. I would consider cutting them at the points where you have the asterisks.
The plot is coming along nicely although a lot of it seems to be based around battles and death. So many people have died in the first 3 chapters and you barely got to know the characters!
I liked the depth of Hamitha.
Overall, a beautiful start. Please check my comments for corrections as I know English isn't your first language.
