With the vampire?
That’s Lucifer talking. And it is supposed to be dragoness. They are talking about the dragon’s daughter and the angel fears he might become a female dragon, the next time he incarnates, if he binds himself to said daughter. Now… truthfully, he did. SPOILER: The Pendragons are descendants of Ancalagon, even though they look like kitsune. There’s a reason, though. So… in a way his fears truly came to bear:) he was reborn as a dragoness
Thanks a ton, you’ve no idea how heartening some praise can be :) I’ll try my best, for now it’s still fun and I don’t plan on going anywhere
Thanks for the flowers and the review, much appreciated :) The leaving it free to read part is actually a bit more of a hustle than you might imagine, but I’m trying my best. I wouldn’t mind asking for a dollar or two but making people fork over hundreds of dollars to read a book seems kind of wrong, at least to me. Anyways, it’s the first prose I’ve ever published but I work at a university, so I’m earning my keep with writing anyways, it’s just a different kind :) I’m thrilled that you enjoyed Cassy’s tale up until now and I just had to try really hard to suppress an uncalled for tails pun :/ glad to have you around, I’m not sure how far you’ve already gotten, but I hope the book keeps on entertaining you. Cheers
Yep. It was a glorious movie, wasn’t it? Especially KB1
It should be. I’m writing on an iPad, which means autocorrect saves me a lot of trouble but it also means it sort of arbitrarily mixes up from and form. Like, usually I typed pretty quickly and it results in something like froam. Them autocorrect changes it and since from and form almost look identically I mostly don’t catch the mistake. Might happen a few times every once in a while. There are a few other examples. Nigh and neigh, then and than… pretty much everything that looks awfully similar.
Well, she is feeling guilty, so… :)
Right you are
Hah! I always wondered if no one recognised the… it’s not really a quote since only the first two lines are identical, but let’s call it a homage. I had already feared games of culture had fallen out of grace. And no… I honestly didn’t think of Cassandra Pentaghast when I made up Cassy’s name. The whole Pendragon thing should be clear by now and Cassandra is taken from Greek mythology. Her name has quite a bit of meaning and it’s not chosen arbitrarily, even though I like the sound of it very much.
So much anger, young Skywalker…
Cool. If you want me to explain anything, just drop a comment. Maybe I’ll tell you to wait for a few more chapters, since the explanation will come, but in general I also try to stay away from all the times whimsy esoteric explanations. It’s magic often works for me :P On a more serious note, that whole story and become pretty massive so I might have forgotten some necessary explanations. Do tell if anything seems weird or wrong.
There should also have been a description somewhere in the book. Come to think of it… more ham once, actually :) But yeah, that’s Cassy on the cover
Yah well, great power, great responsibilities and even greater problems. Seriously, though, since I can hardly make her bleed once she’s developed a bit further,unless she’s faced with another immortal, she’s got to learn one very important lesson before she becomes to strong to get kicked around like a punching ball: no matter how powerful you are, it might take nothing but a single mistake or a bit of bad luck to end your life. So having her hover on the brink of death a few times is just my way of having her learn :) Also you might have noticed a slight increase in power when it comes to her enemies. A curse and constructs of magic, then a dragon and now a nigh transcendent prison and its inhabitant. Won’t get much worse than that, at least not on this world.
It’s a lil bit hard to try explaining without knowing what actually got you confused :) So…. I’ll try with some context. Spoilers ahead: Time is breaking down. She’s switching between different time streams, or rather seeing the possibilities that could have occurred if they had acted differently at one point or the other. That’s also why she acted erratically in camp. In other words, several… alternatives are colliding and she’s more or less cutting her way through reality to,switch between one and the other. Hope that helped, if not, just tell me what has you confused, but some explanations are in the chapters ahead… if you don’t want to get spoiled wait until they leave the to,b again. I’ll gladly answer anything that’s unclear by then.
She has changed quite a bit. A description is in one of the following chapters. It’s a hint towards her development, one she hasn’t picked up on, preoccupied as she is.
