Thank you for continuing this story in such a timely manner. I have been eagerly looking forward to this chapter. The story keeps getting better as it goes on. The cat adds a lot to the story for me. Nice writing.

    Thank you for reading, and for reading for all the months and years. Your support is and has always been, valuable.

    The cat will show up again, later, and with a bigger role.

    Hugs,
    Rhonda

"Can you explain to me why he doesn't look quite human?" "Not now, we don't have time for that." Yea wow, that's why I need to buy into the world you created, but you have a following and those that love this. I'd be freaking out if someone didn't look quite human. I love the way you write though and the word play you use. Your writing is exceptional.

    Stan, thank you so much for the brilliant review and six stars.
    I appreciate you following the craziness of fantasy.
    You?ve made a valid point about the not so human brother. I should have played up her concern about that fact. I will go back and tweak it a bit. I know that wasn?t your intention, but sometimes we in the fantasy world forget to add in that element. It?s good to get a fresh perspective.

    Thank you for all your comments. That is so very helpful,

    Take care,
    Rhonda

Rhonda dear,
This chapter was deep and revelatory. We finally get a deep look into Theo and his orgins and his affection for Echo Jones. Their bond will never be broken, I think. Theo and Georgio are half brothers, and we get more on Georgio and his orgins too. I think we'll see much more more of Georgio in the coming chapters.

Marvelous writing once again as this story continues to evolve and plot thickens. Staying glued. ;))

Sending you my best today as always, my friend.
Lots of love too.
Sal XOs

    Hi Sally, thank you for the beautiful shining stars, my sweet friend!
    Theo and Echo have forged an important bond, one that will be tested very soon.

    Georgios will pop back up again soon, and will play an important role, for sure. He loves her almost as much as Theo, just in a different way.

    Thank you, again, lovely lady.

    Much love,
    Rhonda

Hi, Rhonda, I just love this story and this chapter. it I so very well written. Theo and Echo get on just find and he allows her questions up to a point. But she really managed to get some very interesting answers. I simply can't wait to knowing more. Ulla:)))

    Hi Ulla! Thanks so much for the six stars, and the supportive review, my friend. You?re right, Theo was careful what he revealed, but Echo was determined to get something, lol.
    Have a great week,

This is is so interesting. I would think a guardian would be like an angelic being and spectors would be simular to demons or evil angels. I like the way your are makiing this not too far out in fantacy fiction. I believe there are immortal beings of another realm that can appear in our realm and look like humans and can interact with them at times.

    One of thos review was from me and the other was from my faulty router which I learned often sends out another one. I'm trying or figure out what to do about it, but most people seem to like getting two since they both count.
reply by the author on 14-Nov-2023
    Oh, didn't know they both count! Cool!! You're now everyone's favorite reviewer, lol!

    Hi Beth, thank you for the review, my friend! You nailed the angel, demon representation by the characters.
    I always try to keep my fantasy characters as close to hi man as I can get them. I want people to relate to them.

    Have a great week,
    Rhonda

I like the way you draw back the theological side of life, and blend it with the mystical, our theology is more simplistic than that, but I think I like yours, unanswered questions will probably dissolve anyway, there are questions in life we. Can't possibly answer. Beautifully written Rhonda, blessings Roy

    Hi Roy! Thank you for the six stars. It really means a lot, my friend!

    I did get a little theological this chapter. I don?t do it often, and Tolkien was much more subtle with it, but it needed brought out, in my opinion.

    Thanks so much for the review and analysis.

    Take care,
    Rhonda

This is soooo good. I really enjoyed reading this chapter and finding out more about Theo. He's a true hero in every since of the word. You're doing a great job of writing this, and I am looking forward to reading more.
