abuseYou captured Saren's thoughts perfectly - quick statements, lists, coldness. What a fantastic perspective on this scene!

abuseWoah.

Just woah.

This is incredible. A masterpeice. It summarizes Saren in a bone-chilling way.

abusePowerful!

I haven't gotten far in the game but really wanted to read some fics on this great game.

It would be interesting to read a fic from Nihlus' POV, right up until he gets shot.

abuseThis is all kinds of awesome. I personally found Saren's story really satisfying in the game (though I wish they'd explored it more), and this writing really feels true to that in a way that, say, the novel did not. I have no criticisms to offer, this is just excellent.

Love the title.

abuseQuite an interesting look into Saren's mind before he became TOO indoctrinated.
When he still had doubts about what he was doing.

But this sounds a little too selfless for him.
He even says in the game, that he's following Sovereign to ensure his own survival. He says nothing of the other races.
Still, now that I think about it, the relationship between Saren and Nihlus is a good mirror for that between Shepherd and Anderson.
Two bitter enemies and their respective proteges.

...Anyway, yeah, this is good. Nice look at Saren's uncertainties and reminding us that despite what he does and says, he's still all too "organic".

abuseFantastic look into Saren's thoughts, and heartbreaking as well. Another great story by you, but I know to expect nothing less now.

abuseThis is an excellent piece.

The writing demonstrates not only a firm command of the story elements, but a refined understanding of the characters, with Saren stealing the show as usual. I was thinking of writing something involving the perspective of everyone's favorite rogue spectre, but now I am eager to see what else you can accomplish with this character.

Bravo.
