Well, that took a decided turn for the weird and sci-fi. That was a bit jarring, since the prequel stayed pretty vague on that sort of stuff. Trying to get over that to appreciate what else is going on. I did like the idea of her squeezing into the shoes, that the conveniently purloined footwear might not be just the right size. The second paragraph might benefit from some clean-up, like a semi-colon instead of a dash in that first sentence.

Lots of fun and potential here, and cool that you took such a leap off the other ficly. Just a bit of cleaning to do.

Thanks for the input, THX. I’ll see what I can do.

Would you consider doing an alternative sequel to England’s Dreaming? It might be fun to compare different directions the story might take.
