Fanwork Notes

Thanks to Oshun and Dawn for the eagle-eyed and exacting beta work, and to Darth Fingon for entertaining my random question about arcane Elven nomenclature.

WooHoo! Thrilled to see you post this story here. I just finished reccing it on my LJ for fear that some of my SWG-buddies might miss it. I hoped you get around to putting it here sooner rather than later, but couldn't wait to share it. 

This story is just completely briiliant in conception and execution. A fabulous look at Beleg and wonderful foreshadowing, but beyond that the entire description of what it might have been like to awaken at Cuivienen is great, Fabulous title as well.

Congratulations on a terrific story.
