Reviews for In His Name

Chapbook 2011.11.08 - 04:09PM 11: Chapter Eleven: And If These Dreams Be Real Signed
I'm glad to find you here, as it looks like OWL is gone forever? I'm not sure if I had reviewed this chapter yet, but ut is certainly worth a second review! I enjoyed Mab, her name and her personality. She is a fine OC, like the others. Not walking Plot Devices, iow. Your depiction of NM's suffering is harrowing and poignant. Still, the return of his bark makes me hope he will return one day with the help of his growing number of friends. I also relished the references to seasonal rituals; it made me think of some of the old carols (not referring to Christmas ones) and ballads, and Delyth's use of zills.

Author's Response: I've no idea what's afoot over there at OWL but I'm delighted you've re-joined the tale here at OCC. Isn't Mab the treat? I was quite pleased when she introduced herself - I look forward to knowing this wise old woman better. She's tough as nails with a truly kind heart - another stalwart foe against the Darkenss that still hungers for our Neirin.

OMG!! I was absolutely thrilled when LChaim called me last night and told me that you were updating! I am so happy because this is by far my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE fan fiction! It was well worth the wait! I just have to say, dear lady, that you have amazing imagination and a way with words. This was great...and what Nerian was describing what he was experiencing in the Abandonment....*shudders* Poor, poor Severus. I look forward to more!

Author's Response: And more there is !!! Darlin' LChaim - I'm SO HAPPY she brought you back to the tale !! An even more twisting road lies ahead, so stay close...

I had absolutely no idea you were updating again! I checked it today on a whim and find myself jumping for joy that there is no one but THREE chapters to enjoy! I am soooo happy! I really like Mab. She is wise and kind and patient. Severus needs someone like her. Again, I am glad to see hagrid here too and I look forward to seeing more interaction between Severus and him. I feel awful for Severus. How frightening it must be to suddenly wake up, blind and don't know who you are, where you are or anyone around you. That's enought to make anyone cranky though that is something I always enjoyed about this particular character...he is so snarky and cynical! I love it! LOL I am excited to see more. I wish I could read the other two tonight but I think my children have other plans for mama's time LOL

Author's Response: Oh JOY !!! I am absolutely GIDDY with delight to hear from you !! I'd been hoping you'd be reading and when I didn't see you I despaired that perhaps we'd lost you as one of our faithful travlers!! Hoping that Gallant is still with us as well.... Hugs to your wee ones - wish they were old enough to have this tale read to them so you could plunge ahead more quickly... but alas, I fear the tale is too dark for the ears of innocent babes... My heart is happy that you're back !!

The motto of Hogwarts might be to never tickle a sleeping dragon, yet they did exactly that by the fire, didn't they, talking about him as if he wasn't even there? Somehow it was the right thing, too, since it incited him to let the dragon out of it's lair for a few moments. I expected Hagrid to trip over not saying his name for a few seconds, but Hagrid is amazingly canny at the right moments. Working with hurt creatures has taught him much, I guess.

Author's Response: No longer under ol Dumbly's benevolent control, Hagrid's true wizardly nature is becoming much more evident - and he takes the responsibiltiy of Secret Keeper and Guardian very seriously. And Neirin - far too powerful in HIS wizardly nature not to continue fighting his inprisonment... even though he doesn't understand that's what he's doing...

Hi, thanks for the fantastic update. It's well worth the wait. We get to see more of severus progress from the curse. He still has a long painful path ahead but it's good to see that he has many more people who are willing to help him throuh his torment. I have so many questions but I know that they will be answered in due time. Thanks again for the update I'll be waiting for the next one and all the others to follow.

Author's Response: Was on line and saw your review pop up. I'm feeling a bit concerned - this chapter was so long (almost 14,000 words) so the admins were forced to have me split it into two chapters which show up as Chapters 11 and 12 but which both have the same title "And If These Dreams Be Real?" and are actually all part of Chapter 11 - so now I'm concerned that people may have skipped to 12 and missed all of the start of 11 - ye gods, mass confusion... But I'm delighted to see you're still with me !!
