LOVED this. So happy that you've written anything for Vanillaware's other great game.

I also find that explanation for Corny's speeches amusing, and have made it part of my headcanon.

The one thing that puzzles me most about this story is why Velvet felt the need to dance when laying her trap. Graveryl seemed well-hidden enough, between the blackness of the chains in the dark and the unexpected nature of its animation, that a distraction was hardly necessarily.

Regarding Velvet's insight into Cornelius' mind, does she find his situation similar to her own, with the Pooka who used to be her people, and who even now look to her as a symbol of better times and future hope?

And you believe that she does not consider the Pooka and their village to be her countrymen and country? Perhaps you feel that she holds some involuntary resentment for the people who lived happy under her grandfather's reign while she and her mother suffered?

Woohoo! There is another Odin Shpere story in the world!

Nice writing as per usual. It's good to see more stories for this great, great game. Have you ever considered writing something for Gwendolyn? Because you know, not many people can boast with actually having "fought their way through hell" for the sake of a husband who got a bit sad D. Silly Oswald.
