Love this piece and this writer's other works with the same central character - Phaila. The writing is subtle and original, the OC characters rich and believable. This vignette stands alone with it's own sights and sounds, but also begs for a continuation. Grand stuff!

I do hope this is not the end. Begging is not the word I would use. Try screaming for continuation. Nice flow. I was vastly disappointed to find only two chapters. Wink smiley face

Will you be posting Amaras and Phaila on this site as well? I am a devote Haldir worshiper, but the story of Amaras and Phaila is so intriguing!

I am re-reading this story. It is most excellent! I read it before on aff, but never got to finish it. Wonderful characters. The history of the Morrigan is very good.

What do you call adding three more chapters to this story???? A darn good start, but it had better be only a start. To quote my nana-child, "Mas, mas!!!!" Please. *begs shamelessly* Cool smiley face

Well, that is better. However, it is too slow. Perhaps I should wait until you are finished and read the whole thing at once. Twisted Evil smiley face

Do you have more stories posted elsewhere? Smile smiley face

Wow! I know, not very original, but... WOW! Touching... poignant... bittersweet... Poor Haldir. Poor Phaila. Poor us, please say this isn't the end. We REALLY need a happy ending!

Okay, chapter seven does not count. It was too short. Now you owe us another chapter. Well, do not just stand there!!!

I've read up to the end of chapter 6. (I am a slow reader).

I really like the way that the characters slowly reveal themselves. The author gives subtle hints about Phaila and the Morrigan, enough to keep the reader curious about her background. There's so much left unsaid that Haldir and the reader are almost in the same position as far as trying to puzzle it out. It has really grabbed my attention.

The description of the characters do everyday things...cooking supper, searching for winecups...as the story unfolds makes the story very immediate.

I've got to say that those two really need to learn some lessons in commincation, though!

Haleth, interestingly enough - this is a story that should be read slowly, like Kipling.

Read through chapter twelve. Thank you. Much better. Hope I have time soon to read the rest. New chapters make up for seven. *grins sheepishly* Sorry about the critisism. I hate chapter stories to begin with. I just get warmed up and have to change pages. Short chapters are a nightmare. You know, dial-up access and overusage of the internet. Rolling Eyes smiley face

I hope you will bear with my griping. I like the story alot.
