There were some sort of violent scenes, but I didnt think they were overly gruesome
Yes but some parents would be averse to that sort of thing being read by their children. If this story was exempt of such scenes then it would have more readers and exposure!? It really is just my opinion. Some people think it's fine either way.
No I agree - I'm not sure how this book would have played out though without the dark scenes...would it have been to "fluffy?"

Good questions! Did they die? Did they go to shadow pain? Or did they make it to the orphanage?

Yes, author's imaginations in book was at another level. It surely is a unique idea. This shows that there is no limit of imagination. So, I also like to know about it.
