Oh, I almost got teary...great job with the emotional descriptions. Now I want to know his story!

Yes, almost crying! Woo!

I'm sure it's a sad, horrible story...

This is great. I'd completely forgotten about the pied piper fairy tale, and this was a really cool way to remember it. I like how the piper is only a boy and the hints that something more terrible than not being paid happened to him. I like Hanna's courage and resilience and the way she confronts him at the end. And I especially like the "name" of the song!

Thank you! I really like your icon, too, btw. Heh. I'm glad the story left you with so much. :D

I have to admit one of the reasons this took so long was because I kept fantasizing about a novel... :D Thanks!

I'm always stunned how large of a world you create in such a small space. Well done! (the details of his rat-skin coat were esp awesome)

Thank you, Syl! That means a lot. I kind of want his coat. Ok, I really do...
