Oh, this is just wonderful. I love the atmospheric writing, and the way you wove all these disparate lores together.

Thank you!

[bonfoi]

Thank you very much for reading. It's lovely to wake up to such a compliment.

I said I had to thank all the reading I'd done. Exposure to various myths helped with the writing of this fic and, well, thank goodness for Will Shakespeare, too.

Loved it! Such a beautiful, fanciful adventure, and I love Remus as the Queen of Pentacles.

[bonfoi]

I think the day I saw the Queen of Pentacles was up for this wave, I was listening to QUEEN and thinking about Freddie Mercury for a Day. *grin* How could I know not bring a bit of fanciful myth into it?

Thank you so much for such a lovely comment.

I love the background, the world-building and the ambience of this. And I learned a lot!

[bonfoi]

Thank you so much. It was a grand exercise in giving Remus his place in the world for one. And I'm glad you learned a lot. Sometimes, fan fiction can be very educational.

How did I manage to miss commenting on this the first time? Lovely lovely fic, so many threads to draw together.

[bonfoi]

Thank you so much for finding it now. It wouldn't be here without your lovely fest, so I thank you for the opportunity.

I loved incorporating my own family background into the story. There's so much we don't know about Remus' life outside of Hogwarts, and this was a great way to go both backwards and forwards.

I like to think of this as my 'tapestry' fic with all those threads I ended up with and then brought together.
