Very interesting story, I like how Mana reacts to the face of her dead...comrade? Ken isn't showing on those details right now, haha (Or maybe I'm just stupid...:( ). The battle was detailed nicely and the little description on the Necromancer was a nice touch. It's awesome to see you writing again, you have some great stories and I'd love to see more!

This is a great way to start a comeback.

A very interesting short story and look at Mana.

I hope this will recharge your batteries and get you ready for bigger things.

Oh, it's so pretty! The prose is well-structured and the description is imaginative. All of the imagery (the battlefield, the platform of bone, the bright night) is a treat for the imagination; good show!

The story is cleverly-done, too; you give just enough information for the readers to figure things out, keeping the story moving briskly and without pause for explanation. Very cool.

And welcome back!

this was amazing, keep up the good work.

I see.

A wonderfully paced and beautiful thing. Mana, recalling a memory of a battle past, and the very dead bad dude's increasing tab--though since she shot him down, how's he gonna pay?

There was a bit of iffy sentence structure near the end: when she's reloading her coin, that sentence felt too... stop-and-go.

But for someone returning to the plate, it is a very commendable effort indeed.
