Good morning, this is my first time using this forum. While I'm not interested in applying to the contest due to school and the idea that I should refine my work, I'd like to ask if someone could do an exchange with me. The story is sci-fi, a new challenge for me since I usually don't stray out of the fantasy genre, and I'd like some critique on the following:
-worldbuilding
-portrayal of an inhuman character and their relationship with the main character
-convincing plot
-portrayal with villain character
If there are any other things one could advise me on, please note so. Thank you for any advice I can receive.

I've just taken on a 90K beta read, so I couldn't, but I hope someone can help you wotf008

@InkFinger Actually, somebody named glenn84 just responded right now, but thank you for offering if you were! I do have another story in the works, or perhaps I could review yours?
