:) it's a shame there's no such thing as Denali therapists to help Abele recover. Hopefully with Kasha and Rodan's help, Abele will be okay.

Bittersweet but still mostly happy reunion.

Oh, Abele's pov? I am looking forward to that.

Such a bitter-sweet chapter. : I do hope Rodan is just being bleh and not actually predicting anything. Ah well. Back to waiting eagerly for the next chapter.

Oh jeeez Wanda I was almost too scared to read this chapter. I thought you were going to torture my soul with more sad things :C
I'm glad I did though. Everything was just so sweet in this chapter, especially Rodan acting so guilty. You've developed him so well, from the stotic man he was before. I love your character development.
Everyone just seems to need a hug, even Nicji the grumpy old thing.

awdj;w'jk;l'wj
I just want to give Abele a hug and a warm blanket and tell him everything is going to be okay. :( I hope he doesn't go mad. I'm also kinda wondering where Rodan fits in all of this now. Iiiinteresting. - LF

I know I said "the meanest cliffy," a couple of chapters earlier, but it looks like these past few chapters have been one cliff hanger after another, which is a good thing! I'm totally hooked on this story. But take your time writing the next chapter, and I don't mind waiting since I know the next one is also going to be awesome. :DD

:D

Honestly, Abele is not interesting! I know that as an author you love him but really now. We already wasted 15 chapters of potential Kasha/Rodan interaction reading about him! While I was delightfully surprised by a plot turn I didn't see coming, I'm also apprehensive since this character is so notorious for bringing the plot and Kasha/Rodan bonding to a complete standstill.

From a reader's point of view, this story contains way too much background info versus plot movement. About Abele and Will also, a few well placed memories would have been enough. Maybe subtle hints that would show how both men are still so defined by these past lovers. A detailed history is too much or at least it should be spread out more evenly. Why couldn't there be some history shown now that Abele is found to be alive? A reader would find it more interesting at this point, when we know Abele might actually have a place in this story still. Why couldn't Rodan tell part of his history with Will when he finally starts to trust Kasha? Where's the mystery now when we already know everything?

That said, I'm always looking forward to your updates and I think you've made a good job in creating complex characters. I like your slow approach to romance and how your characters were not instantly falling in love or lust, nor devastatingly handsome. Their flaws make them intriguing.

I'm just amazed Puran is dead. In the end he was like a side note. Weird ;)

Whoa wasn't expecting another chapter so soon. But I'm glad, of course.
I like it that you made Puran's death quick. It was very chilling. This man caused all the grief that fuels the story, but in the end he's just that, a man, as fragile as any other. His invulnerability was nothing but an illusion. I just loved it.
I'm now at a bit of a loss as to what to expect. You're very good at plot twists and have been throwing me off the whole time.
I still don't know why Puran forged the letter though. I mean, it would make sense if it hadn't been delivered right to Rodan's tent. If the point was to incriminate Rodan, why leave the letter where Rodan could have it read? And why bother faking Abele's death? I'm sure no one would mind a nobel taking a soldier for a slave. Hopefully Abele can shed some light on these things when (if? D:) he recovers.

I am so glad that you posted another chapter so soon! (Even if it ended in yet another cliff hanger :P) I love seeing Kasha's dedication to Abele. Even though this whole adventure was for Abele, seeing his reaction to Abele was moving. But I have to say, my favorite part was Rodan's struggle with his guilt. That part was extremely well done. As for Puran, I really wanted Rodan to just beat the crap out of him, or at least suffer a little more for what he had done (that might be a little cruel of me though). That part seemed to happen really quickly, but I was glad simply because we got more time to focus on Kasha, Rodan, and Abele.

I look forward to the next chapter!

Ahhh, thank you for not making us suffer from that cliffhanger for more than a day! This chapter made me very happy, though Puran's death felt just a tad anticlimatic. But still. Excellent as always.

Yeah, Rodan putting Kasha to sleep was adorable. T_T I am so ready for the next chapter, ack.

/ aughhh they're all so cute! This is... wow, I never thought there would be such a twist. I don't know how I hope it turns out, but... still, I'm glad that Kasha got to see Abele at least one more time.

And you just had to end it there huh! It's going to be torture waiting for the reunion. The fact that Abele's will to live was so strong that he didn't succumb to his injuries.. even after being returned to Puran.

Puran's death was so anticlimactic. But the revelation that Abele was alive made up for it. It would have been cruel if he just up and died.

Please tell me the next chapter is going to be out soon!

OMG! I half suspected this might be the case! Horrid but I have to read the next chapter. I want to see Puran taken out by Rodan... so badly.
