Seasons Greetings m’lady. . .eggnog or coffee??? And of course blueberry scones as per normal. . . :)
‘Sigh’, it really is hard to believe that this is coming to an end, but before a true end is reached, even in Victory, there is sadness. Sorrow for the dead, the innocents and perhaps even for the enemy. I’m not surprised that Simon is forgiven, although I do find Kai’s reaction the more realistic. However, he too, goes along with the group and helps to heal him. However, it is very hard to give up all your beliefs, when that is what you were raised with, so it would be interesting if sometime, somewhere, we see if Simon has changed completely, or if this is just a momentary thing. As we know, people do have a way of talking themselves out of things as well as into.
But there is more sadness here, as Yasuo faces a reformation of its society. The ‘innocent’ who sided with the Elders destroy themselves for whatever reason they have. As seen through Theo’s eyes this is a tragedy, but then again, Theo sees the world in a different way, and I would wonder does the remaining population also mourn those who died because they felt there was no place for them in this new order? Or is it something best pushed aside and lets get on with the business of rebuilding and creating a new life.
Getting away from the social aspects of this chapter, I would have a quick look at our Royal quartet.
To be blunt. . .I’m finding Kai and Raimen, for all their peacocking and strutting around, (excuse the vernacular) piss fart weak. . . rofl
Yes, Raimen has survivor syndrome. . but Yuri who lived for centuries in a war is the one who gives him comfort. It is she who gives him strength to face their reunion and get past it all.
Then we have Kai, (heavy heavy sigh) he has fought in the wars and has been affected by all the death and destruction around him. And now we find out yet again, someone has died saving him. . .If you really want to do a head count, it all started with Erin. . .Raimen was trying to kill Kai when she jumped in to separate them, and accident or not, she died protecting Kai. . .
So Erin who did not fight, who died as the war virtually started, is the one who has to help her lord as he is faced with how the good doctor died and what took place a seconds later.
The Queens haven’t flinched once in all of this, while the men quiver and shake with every memory or guilty thought that comes their way. Is it any wonder then, that half the time they act like buffoons(except when faced with a crisis), while the other half is spent in bedroom antics. These two men have more issues than most and for exactly opposite reasons.
Riki and Iason. . .well at the moment, they are at peace, so I am happy to leave them to their own little world. .
And as to Yui & Raoul, well a few things there that still need to be said, but lovely to see that they are at least now on the same page.
However, in the name of ‘true’ romance (quite different from true love) whatever revelations take place next, or what ever celebrations you create. . .Omi (as I’ve said before) deserves that dance with his Queen. He and Yuri have developed a relationship I would think similar to the courts of Eleanor of Aquitaine, where a knight would sigh over his lady fair’s smile. And that would be enough for the two of them.
So here’s to Happy Endings and Happy Times. . . looking forward to the celebrations. . .
And thanks for sharing another coffee with me :)

Coffee and scones as per normal m'lady?
Well battle scenes are tricksy things because most of the time its action action action and very little of the human element comes across. And it is also a very clever general (author) who knows where all the troops are in the helter skelter of battle.
The action was exciting, plenty of drama, and all our heroes were all front and center playing their part. (even the insane twins got an honorable mention :) )
But what is always the core of your tales even though it wasn't the main focus here, the character interaction was a joy.
Omi and Argent are a curious pair. Was it planned that their 'powers' are the opposite to their natures. I've always thought of Omi as an emotional being, that he hides behind humor and lust shoots off ice blaststs. And Argent who always seems quiet and reserved, cool and collected is the master of fire. Contrast indeed.
Of course the girls are in the mix and Yuri's mouth, let alone her attitude, is going to make life interesting on Amoi. I know Erin was always the fireball, but I can see Yuri also hurling items at her spouse and his partner when displeased with them. . .I think Raimen is going to have to do some major rethinking about his Queen. Because he is no longer dealing with a pretty doll, but a full fledged commando.
(more coffee m'dear?)
As to Raoul and Yui, yes, they held their own on the battle fields, but I do have to admit, I would have liked to see Raoul's face and reaction to seeing Yui in battle. . .I know he knows what Yui did in the past, but even then I believe he saw it more as a subterfuge role as a protector rather than outright battle. As we know there is knowing something, and Knowing something. And I think seeing Yui in action would have dispelled a few ideas he has about him past and present.
(passes more scones)
As to only one more chapter to go. . .Well m'lady, unless it is an epic chapter, or you plan to cut things out, I really can't see it being the last chapter.
Ok, even if you only mention the party on Yasuo (which I keep picturing like the original ending for Return of the Jedi) you still have to get every one back on board the ships. . .and back to Amoi.
Now that sounds easy, but you are dealing with a bunch of horney buggers here, and if they are all at it, what chances are of the ship blowing up in space? Are you separating the girls from the boys on the way home. Because the boys will want to celebrate in their own style (and probably with some of the crew as well) And the girls probably want a chance for their own little reunion as they really haven't had much of a chance of being together.
But once back on Amoi. . oh dear. . .I keep seeing Erin and Yuri wanting a bit of private time with their respective spouses before things get back to normal. And would this take place beind closed doors, or are we allowed a peak in? And although Kai and Raimen are happy to have the girls back, they are going to have to learn to go back to fitting them into their lives again. These two have been 'happy horny lovers' for awhile now, no married partners in the background demanding attention as well. . . it will be a relearning experience for all of them.
And then of course their is Yui and Raoul. . .Yui missed Raoul's awakening, and even though being together is healing, a nightmare or two from Raoul would probably be appropriate, as there are still things to 'discuss'.
(keeps passing that coffee)
Oh by the way. . .while I was waiting ever so patiently for this chapter (rofl over that one) I perused back and confirmed that Yui has parents. And it sounds as if they are alive, as he took the Furniture position to make sure they would be financially secure. Also note. . the last name is Fai. . .past and present Yui's surname. Decendent's perhaps of that family that survived the war of that time? (damn, now I keep thinking of Meet the Parents 2. .. when all the inlaws meet for the first time :) )
So far I haven't even mentioned Riki and Iason. . well what's to say when you are dealing with a team that defies all boundaries. . .even that Echo in Time that seemed unbeatable, can't stand against them. So yes, they too deserve their moment of Romance in that 'last' chapter.'
Pulse to add to your headache. .. you can't ignore Iason's household. They too have loved ones who fought in the battle and need even a slight moment of reunion time. . . rofl. . . are you running towards the hills yet, screaming get this crazy woman away from me.. .
Well after handling a war and major battle scene, surely a major event as a Lord's Dance (hint hint) and everyone falling into loved ones arms, I'm sure a clever general as yourself, will be able to keep them under control so as not to blow up the planet.
Sigh. . .one more meeting over the coffee m'dear to go. . .sigh. . it was fun. . . :)

Coffee and scones as usual My Lady, but I think you are about to be shocked at how short this actually is going to be :)
Everyone here is exactly where they are supposed to be and so true to form they are just about jumping from the page.
Even in battle, Raimen and Kai's humor comes to the forefront, just as Riki and Iason, once united in the minds eye still have that second to speak of love and assurance.
The Ladies are on the march and heaven help their husbands when the battle is over, especially Raimen, who never experienced the war hardened Queen, he left a widow.
There was a lovely sense of balance here, especially in the description of Raoul fighting along side Kai, it was new and old at the same time . .. a nice touch of the past catching up to the present and blending well with everything he had been feeling and experiencing before the battle.
Of course you then have the reunion of Omi and Yuri. . .whatever Omi is in the present or was in the past, he was a true 'friend', not just a trusted servant to his Queen, and they deserved that reunion, and hopefully a dance at the next Lords Dance...:)
And of course now that the past has caught up to the present, Omi, Argent and Yousi, had to have a very quick moment with Yui as well. So now the only thing left to happen is for the good Doctor to make it all complete.
Katze is ready to fight as only a mongrel can, and I hope we see more of him in the next chapter, and as to Yui. . .well he acted as expected, but I hope that this isn't his only moment as the battle continues.
So next chapter. . .do our heroes cross each other's path? Or as in Star Wars, do all fronts stay separate until all the evil Elders are taken down, and our heroes can happily fall into each others arms?
Hope you enjoyed the coffee and scones. . . and the next time we meet, hopefully it is to cheer at the evil Elders demise and Iason has taken down Lord Bastard :)

Hi there!!! I love this chapter!!!! So much violence, but under the concept of justice and revenge and...i don't know but i loved to read of that ugly Elders fly and die by the hand of Yasuo's people. I found it...poetic...XDXDXDXD
As always a very long chapter, with a variety of scenes and feelings. The women fighting...OMG, that so smart. after all as Yuri said, there's nothing more important to us, that our children, and of course, there's nothing more dangerous that a mother!!! Elders better run!!! Jajajaja.
Hope to see you soon, with the continue of the battle, to see more Elders suffering as they deserve...(God, i'm so thirsty for blood!!! OoO'''')
