    A set from Agnes? I should really consider throwing a grand party in celebration of your return.

    I have told you this once before already but you are a massive source of inspiration, there is soooo much I can learn from you its almost overwhelming. I regard you as the best writer on nexus (note, I always say one of the best... but this time, an exception. I do mean it so don't deny it. )

    The psychological effect of being consumed by the night mother must be extremely overwhelming to the point where she can't see the "light" anymore. You have written it so beautifully, perfect use of metaphors with the elf being consumed by the darkness as well. The amount of effort and work you put into these sets, making up the entire story, those lines... I can't tell how long it takes, can't even imagine. But one thing is for certain. I love your work. I admire the way you play with words, your sets... always feel like as if you take me on a journey. A tour through the mind of your characters, I can feel what they feel, see what they see, hear what they hear. This is exactly what makes you my favorite writer and why I admire your work so much.

    Yet another masterpiece Agnes, Mind blown. (just incase your ego's inflated thanks to my compliments, don't worry about it, I think the compliments are well deserved ) Can't wait for your next installment milady. Hope I don't have to wait for a year, although it would be well worth the wait if it does take that long.

      My ego IS inflated! So inflated, in fact, that it flew off the window right now.

      But seriously now: I am so humbled and honoured by your words. Honestly, I'm overwhelmed. Thank you very much for your feedback and support.

    Wonderful to see you around, dear Kayol!

    This set is marvellous (as usual). You put so much soul and effort into your work and I've said it before - I'm quite envious about the elegance you use within your writing!

    Beautiful and emotional and to me those two go very well hand in hand!

      Hey, thank you for stopping by!

      You absolutely shouldn't feel envious as your own style is absolutely delightful to read. I'm really glad you enjoy my writing, though.

      Thanks again!

    This is really beautiful! Really love your work! Is there a reason why the lady has a scar on her face?

    Very exciting and with your usual style and aplomb. Really show how the Nightmother is eating up Saga's will, her mind, her strength. How she is slowly taking her soul and identity. Soon she will be just an extension of the NM. That is how dark seduction works.

    Liked all the intensity to "Elf" and how he decides to read the journals. You are your typical obscure self still in not saying anything outright (which isn't a criticism - it makes the reader hunger for more tidbits of information) but my guess is Lark is figuring out what is happening to Saga to some degree although not completely. Course not sure what he will do with the information should he figure it out but still be nice if someone finds out and possibly offers some help to Saga.

      First of all, thanks for teaching me a new word - "aplomb" is super fun to pronounce, at least for me.

      As always, your interpretation is spot-on; I don't want to spoil anything (after all, the next installment may appear EVEN before 2020, so y'all will find out what's going on soon enough!), so I'll only say that I agree with everything you wrote.

      Also, thank you very much for reading and commenting. After all this time, uploading seemed very awkward for me, and you guys made it a lot better.

    I see Saga's struggle against the shadow in her mind continues, a struggle far more dangerous than her facing foes in dark depths or scaled foe atop jagged peak, to lose herself would be far worse than death. One can really feel the worry in those thoughts of one who cares deeply for her, his observations of her changing, the usual hue of her eye becoming dull, the great silence, the way she ignores her companions never looking back to see how they are faring. I hope Saga's friends can pull her back from that edge of that shadowy precipice which she teeters on. A wonderfully written chapter, my friend. I hope your year gets better Kayol.

      Thank you very much for your comment!

      I'm glad you found Saga's inner struggles with her menacing Plus One to your liking - I almost forgot how fun it is to write it. I also really wanted to show Larkspur's change while observing said struggle.

      And yeah, I hope things will get better, too. Actually, I found out today that there's a chance they will, so... fingers crossed!

    Silly Kayol, your "scribbles" are always appreciated and enjoyed, no matter when you post them. I personally really enjoy your stories, they aren't the normal fare found on here, they're a bit deeper and have more of an impact, & they tend to make you think about what your poor lady is going through. More psychological bend to them than an adventure story. Those are good too, but I like your stuff better. So please, keep scribbling!!

      Thank you very much for your words of encouragement! I'm very happy that you enjoy the story and still stop by to read it - even though I don't upload as often as I would like to, I still care about it, and about readers' opinions.
      Thanks again!
