Oh, thank you, I think I like the opening best. I had all that space between the sections to go along with that idea of it floating, but looking at it posted it sorta just looks like a formatting error. :D Thanks again for the beta and for commenting on a Friday night. ♥

Ooooh, I really like this. I love the imagery of Nimeuh as a spirit. Also, the line about not needing another sacrifice is awesome, really smart. Plus, femslash, yay! Fantastic story, thank you.

Yay! I loved Woldy's original and it really made me hope that Nimueh might come back, if not for loving up Morgana then at least for continuity and formidable antagonists. Thank you so much for reading. :)

Ooooh, it's really interesting to hear Nimueh's POV on this and I like how you begin right after the end of Season 1. I love the hint that all the women are connected in some sense, and Nimueh's reflections about Morgana. Great remix!

I loved writing this, Woldy! Your story was so fascinating, and I hadn't really cared for Nimueh before but I do now. I'm really happy you liked the remix. (I told you that if I got assigned to you I'd do femslash lol.)

Every time Uther's men build up the pyre, she burns on it and then climbs higher.

Brilliant. This is a stunning counterpoint to woldy's story, like the other side of a double-edged blade. I love how Nimueh here is more than just herself, as is Morgana.

Yay, thank you so much! And thanks so much for reading and commenting here and on the other remixes. We don't get a lot of non-participants commenting around here and it really was great to hear from you. :)

Like some of the other commenters have said, I love the sense of Morgana and Nimueh as all women, not just themselves.

My favorite bits:
She reaches, and at last she understands what she's reaching for.
and
Every time Uther's men build up the pyre, she burns on it and then climbs higher. She not only knows herself but makes herself known.
