SummaryAbsolutely nothing could make the members of Excalibur sign on for more.  The war was over, the aftermath cleaned up as much as it could be, and they were happy to leave the last few loose threads to the army

I'm crying so much. This was beautiful. The perfect ending. I loved how everybody got their happy ending, but without ignoring the consequences of the war and everything they had suffered.

I'm terribly sad this story is over, but I'm happy at the same time, because, in my opinion, the best you can do for a story is giving it a good ending, and you totally did that.

So thank you really much for writing this, the whole thing. I owe this story (you) a lot. I may take advantage of that change of mind regarding fanfiction because, even if I'm not much of a writer, I have a need for more of Mordred and Lucan bonding *.*

Looking forward to anything you plan on writing in thd future :)

By the way, you mentioned a bit back that you may need some Spanish help with a TW fic? I'm still willing to do that! Just let me know what you need!

I left a longer review at AO3, but I just wanted to say here as well, thank you SO much for sharing this story with us. I laughed, I cried, I raged, I delighted. This story was everything a reader could want, and its realistic bittersweet (more sweet than bitter) ending, that showed the realities of a changing world, was a masterpiece of writing.

Congratulations on your amazing accomplishment. Thank you!!!!!!

- Caz.

After two days of intense reading and procrastination from my Reel_Merlin fic, I finished reading Chpt 15.

Dammit lady - Your writing makes me so jealous in a good way. Well Done on finally finishing this epic!!! And thank you so much for sharing it with us. It will certainly go down in the fandom history books.

Like other commenters above, I just wanted to say thank you so much for giving your time and inspiration to writing this series. I have followed avidly (if rather lurkingly) all the way through, and I can't even express how many holidays, train rides and just empty afternoons have been filled and made better for me by Loaded March. I love the ending, and how you tied enough loose ends to feel satisfying without making it trite.

There are some stories, fanfic or original, that touch your heart, and this is one of them. Thank you so much for everything.

Congratulations on finishing one of the best fanfics ever! I still have to take some time off to finish 15 and the epilogue but I've loved what I've read of 15 so far.
