that was only six thousand words? you managed to get a lot covered in only six thousand. I guess I was expecting a novel, but you managed to finish up the story cleanly in five chapters.

So... Vasili/Vasya wasn't dead?

Anyways, good job! Are your other operas related to each other, or are they all individual stories?

V!
You finally updated, whoot!
So...Harry Potter defined an era of my life--I can't say the same for C.S. Lewis but whatever floats your boat.
I can't explain it but the Vila thing seems a bit random, but it's nice that the girl had to save the guy for once.
Good job,
E.

Excellent imagery and characterization as usual, in particular with Vasya, who gives me the creeps.

One question: "mon Thesee" ... Is Thesee a French name?

V!
Lovely, very lovely, if not incredibly creepy. Now please look into fixing that last line " where, to Tartarus?"
All in all, very terrifying.
Good job, E.

Another example of extravagantly intricate prose. The characters relate well to one another, and their discourse is highly authentic.
Very nice work.

hmm, azure labyrinth? this is getting interesting...

your writing seems to flow so smoothly. your word choice is impressive; there were so many words i had to look up. i suppose this way, i'm indirectly preparing for the SATs.

anyways, nice chapter =]

Very pretty, very sweet. I like this chapter, I think this may be the best Opera yet! Somehow you manage to make descriptions brief and elegent without weighing down the progress of the story. Brava, V!
E.

I LIVE!
I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN YOU OR FP BUT I HAVEN'T GOTTEN THREE MOMENTS OF PEACE ALL SUMMER!
Now that that's said I would like to make a few comments about azure. So lynxes drew carriages fo' shizzle? Well I'll be damned! How perfectly frightful, I should hate to be discovered by my husband carrying on with another man...
Wonderful job, V, you haven't disappointed,
E.

your writing style is amazing - there is so much imagery in the details that the narration becomes incredibly vivid. i also like how you use a little French mixed with the English - it keeps the tone sounding high-class and sophisticated. i'll be looking forward to seeing how this progresses =]

This is intriguing- your style is descriptive without being ponderous, and your subject matter, from your summary, appears to be a highly original interpretation.
I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this one.
