    Very well written. I thought she would have to do this to save her daughter. You did a great job capturing the emotion and love of a parent to a child.

    I found it hard to comment on his one as being a mother I know there is no bounds that you will not go to too protect your child but to watch as she ripped out her own heart was heart breaking and found the tears filling my eyes as I read the last of it.... I wonder as others below, how old slime ball fiqures he can mess with no just of his brothers but two..... no good odds slime boy..... either of them will be a match but together you lose big time......... poor Sandy to not only lose her mother but have to learn of her father in this way when she is already in major pain.

    Amazing shots, the one with her heart in her hand was so touching........ you have out done yourself dear......... cant wait to see what happens next .......

      Love is a powerful thing..and none is greater then a mother's love..at least so they say. The whole chapter was not an easy thing to write and had me reduced to a crying mess before I was even done writing it. Ol Slimehole sure is getting himself into quite a mess..pissing more then just one of his "brothers"..but for some reason I don't think he plans on sticking around for too long either. Poor Sannedia...losing her mother after only just meeting her..and then to learn about her father...someone give her a big bear hug !

      Thank you dear !

    As everyone else has said, this was a very heart-wrenching chapter to read. Feel so sorry for poor Sandy, first she finds out the truth about Sam, and now she loses her mother. Things look to be all going Mora's way here, ans I'm not sure what Sam is going to be able to do to help Sandy when he does show up, or will she reject him like he did to her?

    One (somewhat) bright side to this though. First of, Mora may have a hold over Sam with Sandy, but how exactly is he planning on dealing with Sheogorath when HE shows up?? Think he's going to be PISSED over losing not one, but TWO servants to Mora's little scheme. And Phobia was a favorite of his as I recall. So, yeah, hopefully Sheogorath's going to be doing some knot-weaving of his own on Mora's slimy tentacles... or perhaps we see how MAD Sheogorath can truly get.

      Heart-wrenching to read..and it was heart-wrenching to write as well. Fate can be cruel when stuck in the middle of the Game the Prince's like to play amongst themselves...to finally have her mother only to have taken away..poor Sandy ! Things sure are looking to be in Mora's favor for now....I don't get a feeling things are going to turn out pretty when Sam show up...

      For some reason I doubt that Mora is going to be sticking around too long when Sheogorath does show up..he is going to be furious..losing TWO of his servants to Mora little plot..and Phobia was special to him so even more pissed over that...also doubt Sam going to be in any kind of merry mood.

    Oh, this was so sad, heart wrenching and tragic, very emotionally intense chapter with great expressive shots! The death of Passion/Phobia was one of saddest scenes I read, just like in case of Fleur's death o the story of how Grim found little Wolfgar near his dead mother...

    I knew that those ominous words about how far Passion will go for her kid were not mere coincidence and then she showed th depth of her motherly love, by ripping hr very heart from her chest to dispel that damned spell!
    Mora sure is true sadist to invent a revenge like that and new form of binding... obviously he needed Dannee alive so he could let her kill herself, for he wants her all by himself but in this case however he cares only bot revenge so I guess if both Sandy and Passion died Mora could be equally gleeful.

    Passion's memories were very touching to read... her joy of pregnancy, her love for growing life inside her, her painful birth of Sandy but it sure was all worth it. Sandy must know how much she meant for he mama. And I am very afraid for her innocent heart that can just give up at such amount of stress... to have her mother by her side and then losing her...
    Thank you for sharing such awesome work and I can't wait to see what happens next!

      It was very much heart wrenching to even write. Wrote a few words..cried my eyeballs out then wrote an other few words only to cry my eyes out again. I feel terribly cruel.

      Those ominous sounding words of " How far would you go " were not something thrown out there randomly, while I don't think Prince of Madness knew those events would occur and probably only asked her that again as a way to give Phobia more confidence into revealing herself to Sandy....but I guess Passion got to actually show just how far her motherly love goes....which pretty much knows no bound if she's willing to rip out her own heart to dispel that spell.
      Mora sure is a sadist and a complete and utter jerk to come up with such plan of revenge and this new form of binding spell that pretty much forced Passion into taking this course of action....the sad part he most likely was betting on Passion doing exactly just that..since it would leave Sannedia in a most vulnerable state. While I have no doubt that Mora would of been equally gleeful if both Sandy and Passion died...he needed Sandy very much alive for his revenge...

      Those memories really gave an additonal depth to Passion's love toward her child. No pain was too much to endure, no sacrifice too great for her baby. I hope for Sandy's sake that she knows that she meant the world to her mama. It is so very cruel to have her mother at her side only to have taken away..

      Thank you dear

    Oh noes!!!!!! I had a feeling this would be how far she'd go!!!! To rip out her own heart to save her baby... so deeply sad but also so powerful! The way you intertwined her death with her memories of Sandy's birth was amazingly beautifully done. And now the block is down..... I can only hope 'daddy' is going to show up now to dish out the hurt on his brother. Poor Sandy, to be reunited with mama only to have her taken away again so soon. Ugh. So sad.

    Beautiful but heart wrenching stuff hon.

      When you consider that she gave up her own sanity for Sannedia from the get go and when she asked Garm how much he was willing to sacrifice for Sandy, she said that there was no need for 2 people willing sacrifice everything to go..it was a good indication that Phobia was willing THAT far. Willingly and disturbingly calmly ripping her own heart to save her baby girl...it is very sad..yet speak volume on devotion and love that Phobia had for her child. Exploring those memories and intertwined them with her death or Sacrifice..is just my subtle way if explaining that to her no sacrifice is too great for her child..and that Sandy in a way means the world to her.

      Lets hope "daddy" is going to dump Mora in that bottomless pit !...that Bastard !..though i fear he may be in for a very bad surprise as well.

      I feel horrible for Sannedia..she just reunited with her Mama....only to have her taken away so soon...it's so cruel.

      Thank you dear ! Sort of feel like I've put my heart in a blender and pressed on "smoothie" writing this one.

    You did warn me about the construction site didn't you...damn, it's right outside my window, and my windows stuck open...so...much...*SNIF*...dust! *SNIF*
    Seriously though, that was painful to read. Up there with the death of Fleur or Wolfgars mother sad.
    Sadly it was her only true option...
    Now I must go and play that song a dozen times. Dumping Mora into a bottomless pit is a worthy cause!!
    Beautiful/painful work dear!

      Yeah I made that warning about the construction site specially for you because you often have your window open. Those darn dust storm ! they go straight for the eyes !
      It was as painful to read as it was to write for me, I had a bit of a hard time doing any writing because i was a crying mess after every couple of words.
      She had two other options so to speak..to ask for Mora's help....which she wasn't about to do. ..the other one was to let Sannedia die..which Phobia did not even see as an option.
      Yes dumping Mora into a bottomless pit is a very worthy cause !! lol.
      Thank you my friend !

    Argg! Should not have read this before bed. So heartbreaking That bastard Mora. I need to get Grim out of retirement. I was thinking last night the perfect way to get revenge on a Prince like Mora. If Grim opened a portal right on top of Mora directly to Fenrir's realm - which is the absolute essence of what cold is - not just cold like the deep void of space but the ultimate cold - the very anthropomorphic definition of cold ... it would freeze Mora and all his tentacles solid. It would be worse than banishment as he would be a solid block of ice - his thought process slowed down to almost nill. It would be centuries before he recovered. In the mean time everyone could enjoy breaking off his tentacles like icicles.

    Very well done Lia! Emotional, impactful, fantastic screen shots, the heart one so well done and sad. Very touching music and words. I don't feel so bad for what my own writing plans are now.

      Yeah..probably was a terrible idea to read this before bed...It was very heartbreaking for me to even write. I was a crying mess. Can't agree more ....Mora is a total bastard ! Ohhh lets host a party to break Mora's icy tentacles...hang him up high like a giant piñata ! Like the idea lol. But speaking of Grim being out of "retirement", just had a tiny idea that crossed my mind...if you are interested i'll PM

      Thank you dear. Still have one part to go for this particular chapter..and I'm not out of the gut wrenching stuff just yet . I had an other song in mind for this part but after listening to this one..though that it was perhaps a little better.

      Thank you dear !

    You really brought out that sorrow of that moment, those memories of when she was Passion flooding into Phobia's mind, those memories of when she carried a child she loved even when but a spark of life within her, how she sought to protect her child after her birth, her love for the child in that moment. It is very sad how Phobia had to make that sacrifice to make sure her dear Sannedia lived, someone better give that Mora a taste of justice for forcing her to make such a choice. I shed a tear for Phobia one with a sense of honor and a great love for her daughter and that Sannedia will have to deal with the death of her mother.

    I think the length of this chapter works well as it gives it more of an impact that might have been lost if it was longer, fantastic work, Mylène

      It was a very harsh part to write..very heart wrenching on it's own. Exploring back Passion's memories of when she found out she was with child and how she loved that child from the very start, wanted to protect her no matter what even before Sandy was born. The very extend of this mother's love for her child. It is a very sad thing that Phobia had to make the ultimate sacrifice to save Sannedia, but it is something she would do without hesitation and would do again. Hopefully Mora will pay for his doing....one day perhaps. Lets hold a minute of silence for Phobia, a Daedra with a sense of honor and great love for her offspring. Poor Sannedia will have to deal with her mother's death on top of everything else...

      Thank you dear !

    Well, what would we do for our children? I wonder what backlash Sam is going to get now from Sannedia? But there is one thing I was thinking.....hopefully her other hand has a big middle finger pointed right at Mora.

      Indeed..what would we do for our children? I get the feeling that Sam is in it for a very bad surprise now...it's not gonna be something fluffy I think. Phobia's other hand stuck in a big middle finger to Mora? Lol..probably in the bloopers.
