This was great! I really liked your story. It gave an in depth background for the crystal's split, and the suffering and patience of Augra. I really appreciated and enjoyed reading about her character. a pleasure to read. thank you.

Nice. I can totally see how this could be possible.

Keep writing! ^_^

This is perfect for Aughra! A backstory spoken almost in her voice, before the start of the movie... The style of this piece fits the atmosphere and works very well. The characterization of them all is fascinating. Arrogant and heartless "Shining Ones," a failed hero, a doomed sidekick, a 'perfect' love interest, and the watcher who knows so much more... Very nice.

I absolutely love this story, brilliantly done.

Good story, and well developed. I like how you tried to capture Aughra's voice (and succeeded admirably!). But what I like even better is your description of the UrSkeks - it's very apt and in keeping with the movie's theme of duality.

No complaints, really. More questions: did you get any of this from behind-the-scenes stuff? I never got the impression from the movie that Aughra was ever a servant of the UrSkeks - she seemed rather contemptuous of them if I remember correctly.

But anyways, well-written!

you've definitely got aughra's voice down pat! excellent work--i love that it comes full circle.

I like that. Very Aughra like.

Ooh! A fascinating alternative. I like the intense way the story is told, very Aughra-like.

Neat story!!
