    This does clear up some things. I apologize for not commenting more but this whole story is just too dark, gut wrenching, and sad to know what to say. But I appreciate the time and effort that went into making it so wanted to at least say, from an attempt to look at it w/out emotions, that it is very well done.

      No worries about not commenting that whole much, I totally get this this particular arc is very dark for what Sannedia's tales usually are and I've sure played with quite a few string here. Only thing I can assure is that things will get better from here. Sure there is a long road to healing some things but once on that road - it's a step in the right direction. I get the feeling that it might also make seeing Felynstra bite the dust even more satisfying later on too!

    This was another emotionally intense chapter, dealing with Signar feelings and with great illustrations too!
    Signar faced a tragedy with his sister and that tragedy lefty very strong impact on him and seeing Vidarr “killing” Sannedia returned him to that time when he was too late to save his sister so he felt such rage which made him to attack Vidarr, as they were both blinded by emotions much to Felynstra’s joy. As his rage subdued, Signar started to ask questions and to think logically of what really happened but Vidarr had run off and now Signar among with other things will tell others to find him. This might take time but maybe with additional help things will become more clear for Signar and Garm. I will look forward for continuation and thank you very much for sharing your wonderful work!

      These last chapters have been quite the emotionally intense one, for sure.

      Signar had it rough with the tragedy regarding his sister and it left him with a trauma that runs pretty deep. Vidarr saying he "killed" Sannedia was basically reopening that old wound and shoving in his face that once again, he was too late to save someone he cared about. Talk about throwing salt into the wound. So he felt so much rage that he just let himself be blinded by it and attacked Vidarr. Had Felynstra stayed to watch, she would have been delighted to see the result. Now that he has calmed down he can think more rationally about things and try to come up with a course of action. He will need help to find Vidarr since it'll be best if he's not directly involved in it.  Him and Vidarr can try and mend things afterward surely.

      Thank you for your lovely and detailed comment !

    Ok, that explains A LOT and makes Signar's reaction and actions so much more understandable. The fear of loss can blind a person and might let them act purely on instinct. Having calmed down Signar realizes what he has done and even comes to the right decision in not looking for Vidarr.

    Thank you for this clarification.
    And I apologize if my reaction on the last chapter sounded a bit harsh.
    In retrospect it might have been better if both chapter 9 and 10 would have been combined. I really enjoy your story and the world you created and hope you'll keep on going for a long time.

    And you asked me about about my own emotions: I'm more of the rational and "cold" kind of guy. My job relies more on thinking before taking action; careful planning and sticking to the plan made. But I understand that it often clashes with those that act on emotions - but if those emotions have an explanation behind them, I always can relate to them.

      It wasn't the character being a dumb dumb, it was the person writing the story making a boo boo. Forgot that detail, that was very important for the simple reason that I made the mistake to assume that the only people that read my story are the ones that have been doing so for some time. So mea culpa on that one. I should have refered to Signar's past and the tragedy he endured there. It explain his reaction alot better.

      It was a necessary one clarification.
      It's alright, I apologize myself if I came out a bit strong in my own reply. No harsh feelings.
      Honestly, I should have just pulled chapter 9, rework it by adding the missing details and then repost it. I can be very lazy when I want to and opted to leave part 9 as it was and make this part instead to clarify things. On a side note, this part also allows me to segway into the next arc of the story so it's not all that bad of a thing. I'm glad you enjoy my story :). Means alot. I'll be more careful and take into consideration that not all readers may be aware of certain characters backstories and such so a mishaps like this doesn't happen. But I am only human (surprising, I know) and mistakes can be made. I learned from this one.

      Being rational doesn't mean you are emotionless though. Good on you if you can stay rational in those kind of situation - I sure can. I'm an emotional little bean. I've always wore my emotions on my sleeves and such. Again, it was my mistake for not giving the explanation required to fully understand Signar's reaction.
