  1. He did forget the heater! Someone else won't Keep tabs on the characters... because even more will follow. Yes, crazy, I know.
  2. Lawrence should focus, yes... but he might get a lil' sidetracked His relationships with Bastien, Ali, and even others, will evolve, and that's a promise.
  3. Rotten and it stinks... Warnings, threats, who's keeping count?
  4. Chapter Five – The Princeps’s Inner Sanctum “Will our esteemed guest enlighten us on the reasons of his enlisting in our school?” To Lawrence’s slight shock, Anton, seated now with his legs crossed, was lighting a pipe. Actually, it was Abelard fixing it for him. With practiced elegance, Anton gestured with the pipe, not bothering to thank his acolyte for doing that for him, as if he expected Lawrence to start blabbing already. “We weren’t introduced,” Lawrence said. Felix had al
  5. And this is where the story gets really, but really convoluted, because my mind just can't stop at keeping a story simple... There is so much more to learn about that day and what truly happened. Stay with me, and - hopefully - everything will make sense!
  6. Yep, a very formal young Theodore
  7. Thank you You're flattering me. Jack and Vince definitely need to keep their eyes peeled...
  8. There's a whole thing regarding that Embercasting flint. Theodore might remember some things, Jack might see others... but in the end, it is all about the truth.
  9. Truer words have never been spoken!
  10. They will each play their roles...
  11. Together with the characters, readers will find a way... Starting from the valid point that everything happens for a reason!
  12. With me, you can never be sure...
  13. Chapter Thirty-Three – The Light of a World It was as odd as it could get to eat using nothing but his mouth, but it was what it was. Jack did his best to eat politely, but his muzzle, fangs and tongue had minds of their own, so the moment food was placed before him – served on a wide plate and at the table – he began chewing loudly and making sounds of satisfaction at the taste of the tender meat hitting his palate. Tharion observed him with kind amusement while he drank from a large golde

    No problem, I usually peruse the comments left by readers most carefully right after I publish a new chapter. Thank you!

    Prologue

    No problem! I'm not a Native English speaker either! Imagine my surprise when I discovered that 'brunet' in English is not used for someone with dark/black hair...

    Did I innocently stumble upon a sex term and a kink?

    I think you might need to, seriously! I'm having character sheets for this story, because the cast is absolutely crazy in terms of size and number of characters. But the story simply demands it. And you're far from having met everyone!

    Ah, it was you who mentioned that about the plant... As I said earlier, even where I grew up, there were plenty of bushes with inedible little fruits that can lead to poisoning, so our parents hammered into us not to put our hands on it. So, it's a bit like - well, it's dangerous, but everyone knows not to touch it kind of thing.

    Because of Ali, now everyone is thinking of Bastien's rosebud, lol! Well, he made Lawrence think of the same thing, so...

    I read about daphne mezereum, too... since it was relevant as research for this story of mine. While it may seem like a strange thing to have around, as kids - growing up in Eastern Europe - we were often warned not to eat small red fruits of various bushes growing everywhere because they're poisonous. That was what I was thinking about when I included this. Ali, yes, he's not a fan of Anton. And Anton did earn his reputation by being someone who acts in his own interests, regardless of what that means for others. More on him as the story moves...

    And Herr Becker thought he was punishing Lawrence... yep, that's one perfect room for a little tryst.

    Lawrence has no interest in labeling himself a sycophant... and he's actually playing his hand quite well regarding Bastien. Oh, you're asking the right questions about Bastien... He'll show a few interesting facets of his personality, and as Lawrence gets to know him, so will the readers. Thank you for all your comments! Yes, please do take notes on the poison

    About the title, the next chapter will shed a different light on the sense of the word...

    At Veridien? They receive only Classical education, so to speak! So people knowing Ancient Greek abound... Lawrence is ready - he's using shorthand and a key only he and his uncle can understand.
