This is wonderful. The image of light in the darkness is beautiful, and so very appropriate for those dark months at Hogwarts. Yay for Ravenclaws, and yay for Anthony sharing his culture with the rest of his house.

Thank you so much for your wonderfully kind words! I'm so glad the imagery worked, and I thought it was perfect for that time at Hogwarts. :) and I join you in YAY for Ravenclaws and culture-sharing!

Oh this was really lovely. I love how you gave such dimensions to Anthony and the whole Ravenclaw house. Love the Hanukkah references. Just beautifully written!

This is beautiful! The theme of Hanukkah goes so well with the theme of war, with the idea of the lights in the darkness and the symbols of hope. You wrote the Ravenclaws very nicely, and the last paragraph really brought a tear to my eye.

Thank you, I'm so glad that you thought the themes fitted so well together! I thought so too, which made this fic a delight to write. It came together much more powerfully than my original idea. Thank you so much.
