very good. i was just about to start on something roughly along this lines. when you talk to albel in the Aquaria Chapel, he remarks how foolish it is for people to pray to gods that do not exist. they only pray because of thier weakness. that's what i thought of when i read this. great job

This story makes me cry... Poor Albel *cries* Still though, it is well written and I like the notion of him praying that his father will forgive him. Although I don't think a father could ever be mad with his son the way Albel seems to think. Really nice work! *squeak& =^o^=

...*sniff*...Touching. I hope maybe Albel can finally get his life moving again after this, rather than being chained to the past...At least he's taken a first step. Thanks for the thoughtful fic. :)

oh wow! Very good. Very powerful and emotional. I really liked this one. ^_^! Albel does have issues with prayer in the game and I'm glad you brought that in. This is really good. My only complaint is that Albel's arm was burned off from the elbow down and his claw is actually a prosthetic. But other than that it's excellent. ^_~!

aw how cute...Albel...I feel so sorry for him sometimes..okay, most of the time. It was so hard to write his failed ceremony in detail in my ficcie, and I still don't think it's good enough. But anyways, this is so cute...and sad, it's weird like that. But I like it!

I liked this. It was real descriptive and nicely wrote. I also like his prayer...It hits on life. It seems he needed to ask for forgiveness before he could forgive himself.
