Perfect. From the "satin disaster of her hair" and the depiction of Isong, to the simple, elegant tall-standing close. Perfect.

Trying to break my heart again. "reaching..." means hope to me so I will not think of Amaras' fall as a death. Don't wanna. Can't do it.

The battle - Spectacular! Writing battle is tough. You've done an epic job. But I think my favorite part is the description of the Rohme as they arrive among the "allies" (I loves my savages, I does), and your depiction of Glorfindel as both statesman and impatient warrior. Notwithstanding the wariness of the other "allies", HE, at least, knew how to pick a team. Objective, strategy, tactics...

Havetoist, you wrote: concerning what to do with Isong....what to do, what to do....

Please, I KNOW what to do with Isong....so, just send him over to my house!

Seriously, this story has gotten so good, I, too, loved it from the start, just don't have any words. Write more, keep posting!

I've been meaning to make you a list of its 'little gems' as Ingole said....your phrasing and word choices frequently surprise and delight.

Terrific. I simply love the pairing, and your gradual development of the intriguing, lovely, and well-detailed plot. I had to reach for the tissues when Amaras died! Oh why oh why did you make him die.. Crying or Very sad smiley face

Okay, you made changes I did not have. But, I will try to be honest and gentle. That was one of the most heart rending scenes I have read, and I am very upset that you made me cry. I can only say that I will try to do the same to you when I get that far in my story. Now that Phalia is broken hearted, fix it. You cannot leave her this way. She needs something. And if you use the "M" word, I will not read any futher.

Got to the last chapter. Bad ending. You should add more. Tomorrow. Or tonight. You could send me the unfinished chapters. I will beta them for you. Anything. Oh, just post some more, okay? And I told you not to use the "M" word, but you did it anyway. Now, how are you going to get out of that mess???? Very Happy smiley face

Bottom-of-the-ocean sad, and very, very texture-y. Favorite description:

"Phaila drifted a ghost from room to room as she sought out another spirit. Even in the presence chamber she seemed to not so much as sit in the chair as float between the arms like a vapor that looked for a breeze to blow it away. "

So, do we get to tag along with Phaila when she goes to the Morrigan center-of-gravity? (Can't help it. The Morrigan thing fascinates me.)

I read chapters 48 and 49. Very well done. I look forward to the next one. Thank you.

Excellent, as usual. Nothing more I can say, 'cept that I'll be waiting eagerly for your next chapter.

Rock on.

Oh, you tease! The anticipatory heat is singeing my eyelashes. And so many questions between them - his obsession, her beliefs, their attraction, Amaras's promise...There is nothing easy about this pairing. Enjoyed your handling of both the answers and the evasions in their conversations.

Now the hook is set more deeply than ever!
