Oh wow, this was excellent. Beautiful prose and I love the way you used reincarnation here. And Gwen! Gwen's characterization was perfect, I loved her in this fic. Very nice work.

[hinshack]

Oh, thank you!

[heather]

Oh, I really like this! There need to be more Gwen reincarnation fics in the world.

[hinshack]

Thank you!

I like your style and I especially love how the whole group's unity and importance comes through perfectly even though you wrote it from Gwen's POV. This is A+

[hinshack]

Thanks very much!

This is lovely. I adore Gwen's characterisation - how she's the wisest of them all. I think that fanfiction is where Gwen shines brightest. Authors take the show and the legend and merge them to make a truly wonderful character.

Your style is brilliant as well. My favourite part was:

"the streets whisper of Mercia"

[hinshack]

Oh, thank you! I really wanted to write Gwen because I think that when the show gives her some room she's brilliant, but she seldom gets the attention she warrants.

That's almost my favourite part as well.

Oh, that first line is amazing. The rest is really wonderful as well, but what a stark difference from how Merlin and Arthur reincarnations are imagined. Oh Gwen.

[hinshack]

Thank you. I'm glad it came across as different from other reincarnation fic because that's exactly what I wanted to write.
