There are so many things happening in the story - but that's good. It's a moving plot, not a dry and boring maybe-something-will-happen-in-five-chapters plot.
I'd like to give you a little tip about grammar that I'd never heard of until just recently: it's supposedly incorrect to say something like "Bob looked, and jumped." (Okay, lame example, but please bear with me) The writer can't have a comma there, I think. It should be "Bob looked and jumped" or "Bob looked, and he jumped." There need to be complete sentences on either side of the comma or no comma at all, if I'm understanding the (strange) rule correctly. I don't mean to be picky; I'm honestly trying to help your writing - you have so much...talent, skill, ability, and amazing-ness of writing!
Anyhoo, I think it would be very helpful if you described a little more in depth where each of the characters are. I'm a bit lost by that. Roy and Manasa/Ciara are in a cave...somewhere... and Elice and Zelda are in another cave...somewhere... and Marth and Link are...elsewhere? Your descriptions are very clear and easy to imagine, so if you wrote where they were, it would make complete sense.
Thank you for updating! I can't wait for you to present more of your thrilling writing!

Smile! :) God loves you!
P.S. Zelda's whole scary dream made her more realistic and easy to relate to. I just looked back at my reviews, and...good heavens, you're awesome. Ignore my stupidity, please.
A'ight, that's all I got for now!

Keep up your brilliant writing!

Fantastic story you've got going here, and one that deserves many more reviews! I really love your writing style - it's clear and direct, and allows me to visualize the scenes with ease. I swear, I haven't been able to tear my eyes from my computer screen for the past couple of hours because this story is so riveting.

I must say, I think your portrayal of Marth is the best out of all the characters; you give him such depth, and I have to sympathize with him the most. I almost cheered out loud when he finally stood up to Zelda (that scene was AWESOME! Go Marth!). Roy is absolutely hilarious and adorable, and he comes in a close second. Elice has also grown on me, and Manasa is intriguing.

To be honest, I haven't been entirely satisfied with Link or Zelda in this or Time Cannot Erase. The Fire Emblem gang rocks my socks off, but L & Z (my favorite video game couple ever) is kind of lacking in comparison. I feel as though they make everything so much more difficult for themselves and for everyone else than it needs to be, and that they play the victims and act like the entire world is against them. Frankly, Link is being a complete ** to everyone but Zelda (and even sometimes to her), and I don't feel like this is justified. Also, I completely agree with Marth's sentiments about Zelda being a selfish and manipulative woman. I think you hit it right on the nail when Marth accused her of falsely forgiving him just to act the part of the noble princess with "magnanimous grace," as you so appropriately phrased it.

HOWEVER, I acknowledge that Link and Zelda are beginning to realize their faults and their denial about them, and I appreciate how much more fleshed out they are in this story as compared to Time Cannot Erase. I'm definitely seeing vast improvements, especially in the last couple of chapters. I think they've got the potential to overcome their selfishness and become great characters.

Anyway, I guess I'm off to DeviantArt to read more! Thank you for making insomnia so much more bearable.

Ok I normally review the whole story rather than just one part but I have to say this.

Is it me, or was the way the king died, and the the way the castle destroyed strangly similar to Zelda's dream in Time Cannot Erase, minus Link leaving her to die like what happened in the dream? I wonder if theres any significance to that or if it was just coincidence?

I agree with what Bitten by a cow said. Please don't let Zelda cheat on Link. He's the one she truly loves.

I just read through "TCE" and this. Excellent work. You could use a good beta (no I am not going to do it work you). Maybe in a year or so. I have lots of ideas for fics, maybe I'll get an account in the future, and if I do I'll probably ask for your help with some fics. I got ideas, but style, being descriptive in the right way and at the right time isn't easy. Or maybe I am just a perfectionist that is never satisfied with my own work. Either way I like your work Cristina. By the way do you have a nick name or a preferred shortend version of you name? I am TAO (THE ANNOYING ONE). And from now on your stuck get reviews for the most annoying person on . Well other people are probably more annoying cause they flunked english and grammer class. BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE CAN'T BE BOTHER TO LEAVE A REVIEW THAT IS SPELLED CORRECTLY AND IS GRAMMERLY CORRECT. Sorry 'bout the rant I'll go bug Silence-Darkness about updating his stories and leave you alone.

Sincerely,

Okay, is he doing this because he actually likes her, or because he just is a jerk? And why did Ciara just turn into "Manasa"? Okay, Navarre's a creep. Though, I like his name. I thought she was supposed to be super tough, and wasn't she the one who beat him the first time? And why didn't she vanish in the first place?

Woah! Not cool! Married girl telling other guy that she loves him = NOT GOOD! Married girl wanting to make out with other guy = VERY BAD!

One thing I suggest here is that you tell who is thinking what, just because it's a bit confusing. What you could do is put all of one person's thoughts in a single paragraph, then space and write something that one of them does, then keep going with their thoughts.

So, how did Marth not notice her? He walked past her a lot of times...

Well, to be honest, I don't like how the plot is going. Don't get me wrong; it's a good plot, but I dislike that a woman is in love with a guy other than the guy she's married to. Besides, if she's been married long enough, and is pregnant, and thinks he's still alive, I don't think she would be that foolish.

Okay, overall: I want to know why Ciara just turned into Manasa and why she can't beat Navarre since she did so very easily before. Zelda should definitely not be thinking about Marth like that. It would be excellent if you would clear up a bit the confusing-thoughts part.

I know, I'm being harsh again. But please, don't let this become an adulterous story or anything of that sort.

I think that's all that my critical eye can see!

Smile! :) God loves you!

I definitely can't wait for the next chapter! Your character Navarre is truly scary and such a perv! XO and is misterious the whole thing about Manasa, now that I remember there was something odd since Zelda did all the mind-reading thing, oh! and talking about Zelda, there are many questions still left in the air, with no answer, because I feel the girl is terribly confused (maybe as Marth said "not because it ended, but because how it ended" haha), as I can recall from TCE that in fact she must have felt something for him, but then Link came and the truth was there, she never had the chance to reproach at all but to say 'ok, I "forgive" (and possibly try to forget) you' who knows, but I just feel sorry for Link now... :( even if he hasn't acted *tender* at all with people around, but guess that's the point of a good story, to make readers truly "feel it" so Congratulations again!

PS: I can't wait for Roy to come back, missed link in this chapter also *_*
P.S2: Woops!, the review extended a bit ;)
