Content statement-As tags suggest, this is a low-stakes coming of age fantasy drama. There are some mature topics discussed in this series. No sexual assault or rape. While I personally don't consider this series to be LBGT+. Do know a main character is asexual and in The Priest and the Priestess, it is discussed.
