This was good. I enjoyed the retelling from a different perspective.

This is a very engaging retelling! You captured the existential horror of Eve and Adam's temptation and transformation.

Thank you! Have thought for a long time that Genesis 3 is a very eldritch story deserving of some expansion, because it raises so many questions- how long were Adam and Eve tempted for? What was the specific nature of the knowledge they gained? Was the choice to eat the fruit more the fault of the Serpent or still wholly theirs? My goal was to write it in such a way that the reader might feel tempted to try the fruit as well.
