You’re on a role with your names, mate…nice ones too. This doesn’t take the plot very far but it does introduce quite a few new characters and tells us a lot about the prince.

Yeah, you can’t just introduce new characters and throw them in with absolutely no development. I wrote this to build Doran and Kerion a little and show how they could play off each other in the future.

Obviously the Juno/Therys comparisons are there, but I like that – it certainly raises the question of why there are so many young rulers in this world…

Also interesting that Juno is compared to a ‘lionness’ – the difference between reality and perception should make for an interesting meeting, eh?

Anyhoo, good technically and creatively. I miss some of the great description that really suits this story, but I see why the large amount of dialogue is neccessary.

Good continuation – MH :)

I like that Doran thinks he’s off to save the world and the person he considers (at least partially) to be an enemy also believes she is saving the world. Loving the contrasts here.

And we have a name! Rutavia. Nice.

@MH when I said Doran was young I envisioned him about mid-twenties to early thirties but I wasn’t specific about it in my entry.

i love this seriiiies!
