I find myself wondering why she is so short-tempered with him... Maybe she is rude with every one? And if so, why? What has hurt her so badly in the past? I will look for the answer...
The way the map “got to” sit within her belt... such a revealing choice of words. I wish I knew what he sayid about her father... these characters are so vulnerable and real already.
Renn has a warm, fuzzy place in my heart. Well, they both do, but having to inhabit Renn's mind has brought me so much joy (and possibly some heartache ...)

The answer will take some time to fully wheel around :)
Thanks for going through all of these, Sharron. That means a lot.

Hehe. Renn and his silly mind ;)
I love the humour in your writing, Nathan. Renn is a likeable "dimwit!" Unlike Noober from Baldur's Gate, who would follow you around, too...
Hehe, thanks Alexander.
Noober! ... *transported back to 1998!*
I do what I can! ;)

Resonate...
Over to you!
I love this story. Your writing is amazing.
I'm late to the party, just trying to catch up with you guys. Love it so far. I'll just follow the hedge.
Heh, thanks. I do love a good map.
