    The melancholy between the mysterious lines of so many truth and whisdom is enchanting ... as always a lot of space for interpretations ...
    I`m looking forward to the plot

    Great pics of fights and nightshades, your lady and other persons ... I really like the idea with the mirror

    I really like these scarred beauties as they can tell a great many stories just at a glance, once untouched and now fierce and well traveled hard as tempered steel yet fragile as as a freshly bloomed flowers petal. you can derive alot from a picture like this.

      Agreed! Scarred faces in general tell stories on their own.
      Glad you liked the picture, thanks!

    Wow ... the picture with the feathers is breathtakingly beautiful.
    How did you do that?
    The music is great. (Gundry) I like it a lot

      ... Please tell me where I can get the nice long hair
      and how did you make the "kaer morhen" armor compatible for women?
      Sorry if I ask so much. (-:

    Love this line, The flow of the river, no matter its strength, gets disturbed with the smallest fallen leaf. Perfect in some many ways. But then there were many such lines in this story. You could spend hours reading your writing and finding many meanings as it tends to be on the poetic side. Anyhow another great chapter and the music was wonderful. Have heard that piece before and its a favorite ... and thought it fit very well. Especially the music box tinkling. A great job with the images as well.

    I really like the Skaal and if I had to pick a religion it would be theirs. I like the bit about the river starting with a drop and the mind of the All Father creating the drop to start the world - and how all humans are kin. Then the Greedy Man luring away the souls, seeking what he can never have. Indeed to be pitied.

    Not really sure where Saga will fit into all this. Stuff about the night crawler and the sky and humans being in the middle of it all. Humans being the mirror that reflects. Their final creation. I am sure there is something buried in that but guess I will have to wait and see.

      I gotta use this composer more often, so many people like him! Glad you enjoyed the music.

      I like the Skaal as well, although I was a bit confused by them when I played Dragonborn for the first time - wasn't sure what culture in particular they were supposed to resemble. Now I appreciate this mix of ideas, even though I'm as far from monotheistic dogmas in general as I can possibly be.

      Believe it or not, but I'm kind of relieved you're not sure! Lately I've felt like I'm all over the place so it's comforting to know that I still can't write straightforwardly at least. The brand remains untouched!

      Thank you for commenting!

    I was going to say something in the lines of "pure joy to read". However, that just doesn't fit with the atmosphere of the writing

    After a few much more cheerful episodes, this was certainly a change of style. Nonetheless it drew me in from the first till last word. When you can read the same story twice and still appreciate it as much the second time, something was done very well!

      I've never been one to remain cheery all the time, so I had to come back to brooding at some point

      I'm really happy you don't mind the shift in mood. There will be some more fun times, I swear!
      And thanks for the comment!

    This is so amazing *_*
    I got absolutely carried away by the first duo (bird/shadow) it's so perfect and beats like a taiko drum @_@ Your works are always so beautiful!
    Although I enjoy every single entry, happy to know that things are about to come in motion, because I worry about three main heroes immeasurably ^_________^

      Oh, there's no need to be worried... too much. And I'm definitely not laughing like an evil maniac while typing this comment. I promise.
      And now I'm watching a documentary on taiko drummers - thanks for helping me find something to occupy myself in the evening!
      And, as always, thank you for commenting

    You know, I mainly lurk on this side of the Nexus, but I have to say, your stories are absolutely phenomenal! I haven't read all of Saga's story, so I've mainly seen the kind of epilogue you're writing now (basically, I've managed to read what's on the first page of images on your profile), but I get excited each time I see another of your posts. Though definitely kind of confusing for someone who reads in fits and spurts, your metaphors are both understandable (after a little time for contemplation ) and vague enough to encourage me to do that deeper thinking, and that's something I really respect. Bravo

      Yay, that's great to hear! I always love reading messages from people lurking around and reading the scribblings - as a lurker myself, I appreciate any form of contact from you guys.
      I'm very happy you've liked the story so far. Here's to hoping I won't disappoint in the future!

    Absolutely stunning image-story-music combination. Wonderfully written words, very well composed images, and perfectly complimentary music. The overall effect was haunting, mysterious and wonderful. Really great work on everything.

      Thank you, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the set.

      Also, I've seen the part about the track I linked (by the way, I welcome all forms of criticism with open arms, no need to edit) - I don't really have much of an ear for music and have no expertise on the production intricacies, but I can promise I'll try to search for uncompressed formats next time. There are always at least several versions of the same recording, after all
