Just passing through to reiterate how very, very much I loved this fic.

Thanks, your comment meant a lot to me! In case it wasn't obvious, I took a lot of inspiration from your writing on this one.

Let me, too, repeat how happy I was with your remix. Also, something I forgot to include in my original comment: it gave me an extra kick you included not "just" the myths from "Here Be Dragons" but also the story about the sorceror and his wife Uther tells in another story of mine!

Thanks! A friend who remixed me years ago did something like that - referenced a drabble of mine in her remix of a longer work, and it made me really happy, so I was glad I could work in something similar here.

I just want to say that I love your Hunith here!

Thanks! I hadn't written Hunith in some time and it's always a pleasure because I love her SO MUCH.
