Ouch. Very, very believable. And so universal: heathen -- and inhumanity -- is sometimes relative.

It feels finished to me: good characterization, clear arc from start to finish.

Thank you. I think it's finished as it can be, even if stuck around for so long insisting it wasn't.

Very nice, indeed. It is always a pleasure to see the various events and influences which go into the making of a man's character. Auron walked a righteous path.

Auron was one of the good ones, though I'm sometimes afraid some of my Auron-centric stories come terribly close to hagiography.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy it.

Great moment for both men: Auron speaks up for what he believes is right, Kinoc goes along with authority, and that really sums them both up I think. Ikvan comes off as a bit of a bastard, and he well represents the inflexibility of Yevon and Yevonite doctrine -- all Al Bhed are killers, they are all to blame for the rise of Sin. An interesting viewpoint, not one I've seen brought out so explicitly before.

Thanks for writing this! :) I always appreciate an examination of these men and their relationship; I think it's one of the most interesting in the game.

Nice. I liked it.

I liked that, I think you characterised Kinoc and Auron well - one too weak to oppose authority and the other speaking out against what he believes to be wrong.
