abuseI'm glad I came back here because I had no clue you had some new stuff up. This made me sad. I like the crude imagery ('liked' is a weird word for this). I also liked the use of brackets. The Black Death interests me so I was excited to read this. Good job.

abuseYou did a fantastic job capturing the time period. The darkness spread not only through physical descriptions, but also through your diction and your style of writing. It was beautiful. I was just a little confused if her reactions were supposed to be cold or simply disconnected. But that was the only thing! This was very good! Good job!

abuseReviewing for the Review Game's Review Marathan! (link in profile)

Wow, amazing story! I think you really captured the hysteria od this time-period in these few pages. I absolutely loved the line "I was in the sea, lost from shipwreck to nothingness, and it was my only piece of driftwood." and the reference to it again later. If anything, I felt that the girl could have had a bit more reaction to everyone she knows dying. If you were going for her coldness towards it, you could have played it up a bit more. I really loved this fic! I'm deffinately adding it to my favorites!

abuseI love the bits in parenthesis at the beginning where you describe the people who have died.

The things she says are obviously very deliberate and interesting... the way she relates the evil around her to herself... and the sickness to evil... if that makes any sense. I'm not very articulate, but the part where she throws up, and all that.

and in the end, the fact that good and bad people die... very cool piece. I loved it.
