Thanks, lupis! :D

Actually, I do have more posted. It's the 'NN -- Prologue' in my portfolio. XD It's the complete prologue, this and another longer bit.

Hmm...

I liked this. It was engaging and well-written, and all the descriptions seemed to fit.

My one comment is the way you use lots of short sentences, such as this one:

The air was hot and heavy with sin.


A bit telly as well...... ;)

Other than that, this was really good!


I'd like to read more of it.... The problem is that you have so many untitled thingies in your portfolio I can't find anything. :lol:

See ya around!

To be honest with ya Ayra I see this more as a poem. I recommend you actually make it into a poem. You ever tried poetry if not, you should try change this into a poem. Can't say much more but awesome! XD

Good luck

You could, but if it's kind of long and not really related (in the sense that it's a new scene separate from this one) then a new thread will do. =P It's simpler then people know it's there. If you add it to this thread they won't unless you tell them. ^_^

Hehe, that sounds like fun! :) I love writing flashbacks.

This is just the first part. There's a second, in which Isaria is asking Guinevere to go and enroll as a student at Ayra's school and all. Maybe I'll post it here?

Flashbacks! XD I wrote a whole story about a character who can only remember things through flasbacks. I think her name was Zeela. ^_^ No plot, of course.

btw. Is this a small bit of the prologue, a sort of intro to the prologue, or does this scene continue?

Thank-you! :D

Don't worry, the style is only for the prologue. And maybe some flashbacks, but I'm not sure.

Yuppers. It's short. But very beautiful. ^_^ I have no help for you, except to say that though this style is lovely, don't write the whole story like this. I love description, but I get tired quickly if smothered in it. Also, the problem with metaphors is that they're vert passive, somehow. Actions done in metaphor don't feel done, they're implied. Thus, lots of fancy descriptions means not lots of stuff happening. Just my two cents for when you continue. Hope it will be of some help.

^_^ Keek!

Wow Ayra. Honestly, I think you are the best Writer I have ever seen who's even under 18. You are outstanding! I have sloppy, short, un-detailed (I know it's not a word..) stories that I thought were good but then WOW! I read yours. You have amazing talent.Don't ever forget that

AAAYYYRRRAAA!

Why are you so incredible? I still can't believe how eloquent your prose is. Curdled moonlight...sheer genius.

There is nothing wrong with this. Every line is pure and piercing, just like the knife.

Fantastic. I'll be looking out for the next part.
