That's marvellous! And Rebecca is always Rebecca. Poor youngster, he had no idea with whom he had crossed:).

Thank you! This is the first time I wrote from Rebecca's POV, so I was trying to get the a firm grasp of how I thought she'd think :-)

I love stories where male immortals underestimate female ones. There's such a sense of satisfaction when they get what they deserve.

And I'd say that it would happen a lot - from the middle ages right up to the present day - especially with young male Immortals. They were so used to seeing the world through the prism of their upbringing, they couldn't see the reality in front of them!

Lovely. I like this look of how Rebecca protected Amanda even before she was her student. Also nice to see a nice sword fight between a woman and a man. Like the portrayal of Rebecca quite a bit.
