 uptowngirl48 2008-06-19 . chapter 45oh please,oh please, oh please continue!?!?!?! |
 Wiccan 2008-05-28 . chapter 45 Well,I would imagine after almost three YEARS, that you have abandoned this story. It is a shame that you did not state that in your summary. If you have come down with a fatal disease or other horrific circumstances, we as readers would be very understanding and supportive. However, dumping this saga is not forgivable without explanation. |
 mekareami 2008-03-15 . chapter 45I just finished the first 2 installments of your story. I really hope that there is a third one :) Thank you for writing and I was really impressed that the first one was written when you were only 14. |
 Queen Bellatrix 2007-11-20 . chapter 45Dear Lady Lestrange,
I found this story about a month ago, along with its prequel. I know in one of your author’s notes you were speaking of the fact that a story’s readership declines after its completion, and I wished to let you know that no matter how far and between they may be, there are still people who read your stories after their completion. After I found Seer’s Truth, I made a proverbial dash to join the Yahoo Group. Unfortunately, though I am now a member, the screen reading software I use because of my visual impairment prevents me from posting, so all I can do is read the messages.
I, as a self-proclaimed Slytherin, completely approve of your methods of bribery. I’ve just recovered from an illness, but I will soon be going to review the chapters of your original fic, and I am chivvying friends to whom I have introduced Seers to do the same.
These stories have truly become an epic. I feel the same way as you concerning OOTP, and for me, the feeling extends to the sixth and seventh books as well. This magnificent story has become my substitute Harry Potter. It goes in so many of the directions I wish the books had taken. I could ramble about the sheer brilliance of your story, becoming far too sentimental for a Slytherin, but I won’t. I simply wished to inform you that there was still a reader following your story, and willing to submit to your bribery to attain the next chapter.

 blackrider11 2007-04-22 . chapter 45 ok i started reading this Thursday night (your first one not the sequel) now i'm done with the sequel Saterday night... It's addicting. |
 PomegranateLotion 2006-07-26 . chapter 45HOLY **! I ** HATE YOU! I simply cannot believe that you leave a ** cliffhanger like that and then have the nerve to NOT ** UPDATE FOR 9 ** MONTHS! You NEED to update, NOW! PLEASE, DAMN YOU! I will do whatever you say as long as you UPDATE in the NEXT MONTH! That means august 2006 if you're to stupid to figure it out! God, you just CANNOT do that! It's unbelievably unbelievable! seriously, have you no shame? To not update a great and amazing story such as this for such a long period of time is inexcusable! Not to mention rude and SADIST! AND ALSO CRUEL! Of course, saying this is hypocritical of me...I would NEVER just leave a cliffy like that for SO long. The ONLY thing that would make this acceptable is if you were or are currently in a coma or YOU'VE DIED! And I seriously doubt that! You've got me SNEERING AS I WRITE THIS! I hardly ever sneer to anything! I think i've lost my ** mind. Sneering to a laptop screen. See what you have done? So what are we going to do? UPDATE! And goddamn soon for the sake of my sanity |
 ALANA MORRIS 2006-05-11 . chapter 45 WHat happened this is taking to long to get an update. Did you move site? I love your writing but i think it is extremely rude to leave us hanging like that for more than 5 months, no udates since nov. |
 Mattie 2005-12-30 . chapter 45 I really indefinately love this story. :) Not much for words myself. |

 Also September 19th 2005-12-20 . chapter 45Dear Lady Lestrange,
First of all, let me tell you how incredibly impressed I am with your writing. I could tell you were a young writer, but I was quite shocked to find out you were in High School still. I have worked with university students who don’t have the command, the grammar, and certainly not the creativity you bring to your fiction. Congratulations to you. (And to whoever handled your home schooling).
I’ve read both sections of “The Seers’ Truth” and this is a response mostly to Chapter 45, but also in part to the whole story so far…
A couple questions:
1. Why isn’t Harry more interested in Meridius, what his powers are, and the rift? He’s been given little fragments, more than enough to convince him that this is important, perhaps critical, yet he shows little or no interest in it? Why?
2. Snape tells him that he should have been in any other house to be better prepared: in Slytherin to learn his elemental magic; or in Ravenclaw to research his Meridius birthright – why doesn’t Snape suggest that Harry *do* either of those things? Why doesn’t Harry think about doing them himself? He has Samara to practice Elemental with. & he’s already experienced Ravenclaw’s Chapel.
The third question is, I guess, not really a question. You have so many threads up in the air – as a writer you have to bring them all together to resolve the fiction and I can hardly imagine how you will do that (though I’m excited to see you try). What I see to be resolved is:
- Tom/Ginny relationship/possession – now that it’s out in the open that they are in love, they either need a second body or to come to grips with a *very* peculiar relationship.
- There are several dark marks which need to be gotten rid of: Ginny, Samara, Lauren, Mellisandre (spelling), and probably Draco.
- Then there are *all those basilisks*! Right now they’re rather sweet, but they will grow… Is the interaction between Fawkes and Shesha an indication of the resolution?
- Has Beatrice’s Hufflepuff loyalty (“a friend’s mad dash”) already happened when she joined them at the Snow Castle – or is it still to come?
- There is also the small problem of a Death Eater being in charge of Hogwarts
- And, while it probably won’t matter to the conclusion (“three children”) we all would, I’m sure, like to know exactly what happened between Dumbledore and Snape.
So, that’s a whole lot of threads to tie up… I’ll look forward to seeing you do it!
One small grammar point (forgive me, but I’m a curmudgeon and this is a pet peeve of mine)… Be careful when you use the preposition “of”. It’s more and more often being used incorrectly, and I noticed at least one occasion in Chapter 45 when you fell into that mistake. It is correct to say “a whiff of smoke”; “the smell of baking”; “the sound of boots along the corridor”. It is incorrect to say: “Outside of the door” that should simply be “Outside the door”. In chapter 45 you write: “The magic…and off of his fingertips.” That should be “…and off his fingertips”. There is no need for “of” following “off” (Even “get off of me” should really be “Get off me” ;-)) A simple check is to read the sentence, or phrase, back to yourself without the ‘of’. If it still sounds OK, you probably don’t need the ‘of’ there. (Think of “The sound boots” – that sounds *really* wrong!)
Also on a happier note, I know you feel that stories that you’ve finished just disappear from sight, but I almost always search *only* completed fictions. I prefer to read the whole story in one go. So you will have some readers even after it’s complete. (grin). In fact, I only found “A Seers’ Truth’ because “A Broken Beginning” was listed as complete.
Good writing! Success!

 Greekgoddess730 2005-12-13 . chapter 45WOW! WOW!
That final sentence is just WOW! Great job! |
 studiofreek 2005-12-04 . chapter 45 this story is totally wicked! i love ginny and tom i can't wait till he is freed and they can be together i was also wondering if Aislinn will be back in one form or another? maybe as draco's voice of inner reason? any ways i love this story and can't wait for the next chapter |
 Mattie 2005-12-01 . chapter 45 Awesome chapter... I really like the basilisks.. And of course Tom/Ginny being all... well.. let's just say Tom needs his own body back.. I wonder if that'll ever happen. |
 you know git crunk 2005-11-30 . chapter 45 Finally a flippin' update. I was like what happened to that great fic she hasnt updates in like 4 months, but here you are updating, great fic |
 Sayuri-Kikio 2005-11-26 . chapter 45Hey! Finally you posted, though 2 chapters surely compensate. That was such an evil ending! I am wondering, how far are we to the end now? Because I can hardly wait. I'm so anxious to see how the prophecy is fulfilled, I actually figured out part of it, I think. On that note I think it is very neat how you tought us the runes you were going to use in the prophecy, by having Samara talk to Aldwin. I just wish I could remember their meanings. You know, if you made a short summary of what each one of them meant, like you did with the colors and the parseltongue, it would really help. So, great chapters, update soon and please don't make us wait as long as you did last time! |
