Wonderful story...I can't wait for more. I love how you've put in Arabic. This story gives me a chance to learn some of my father's native language.

I absolutely LOVE your story. I was so happy to see the you had updated after all this time :) Please please please write more soon!

Wonderfully written, and I can't wait to see the rest of it. Update soon!

I really, really like this! I am glad that he is being so gentle with her! By the way - you are most welcome for the reviews. It's the least that I could do for such wonderful stories!

Very good! I do like Abdul-Jalil. Thanks!

Well, they are certainly doing well for themselves at this particular festival. Hmm...sounds like they will be back when it happens again. Good job!

I like Fouad. Good, I'm glad that went smoothly. Thank you very much!

I hope she didn't forget saying yes. Good chapter again! I find I don't much like that horse of hers.

YES! Finally! I am really glad that she said yes. Great chapter!

Whew! He never has anything happen easily for him. Good chapter! Thanks!

Good job again! Well, she does seem a little better, but Sahir is an **. *grin*

Great job! I like the description of the festival!

Ok yo got me. Hmm...I have a bad feeling about those rumors (no matter what Abul-Jalil intends). Thank you very much for a good chapter!

I really hope you update this one! it's really great ^_^

I love this story so much, and I'm so excited to read a new chapter! Your writing is wonderful, and the details are just beautiful. I'm so intrigued by the ceremony, and by Ardeth comparing their traditions. And Ester is such an awesome character. Thank you for updating!
