Ok, gonna throw my two cents into the ring...Not sure if this is what Chrissy had in mind but this is how I see it: Aneurin is dead, what has taken his place is some kind of mishmash of all the elf kings, sort of a genetic memory that was unlocked by the spell Caoilfionn and Islwyn; so Anuerin is still in there but he is now a small part of the whole and from the sounds of it a very subservient part, he Called Val a Dy'nn and the true Aneurin never would have, that would be like Magus calling me or Kari a whore, never happen. Now this hot tub party might bring the old Aneurin to the for front but it will never be him, not really and she's willing to try but I think the influence of the kings of the past will never let him see her as more than a pet. No, sorry but what they had is as dead as her old lover. As for Yorwrath, I think you are all underestimating him. His abrasive manner was his way of keeping people at bay. He loved a human woman deeply and his father took that away from him, made him watch her die a horrible death, as well watching his son die. I couldn't even imagine what that would be like and honestly hope I never have to find out, but I know someone who does know and I watched him go through something quite similar. Yorwrath is just trying to never get close enough to anyone, especially a human female, so he never has to feel that pain again. But his walls are cracking, he didn't want to have rough sex with Val, he wanted to make love with her like his brother did and that tells me that no matter how he rails against it he's falling in love with her. I see the old Yorwrath resurfacing, the one his brother said was kind and even happy and when Val sees what's under that cold exterior I think she'll re-evaluate him and the two of them may find comfort in each others arms, a comfort that will grow into a deep love...I'm a romantic As for Islwyn and the unicorn, gonna have to go with Kari on this one, they die slowly and screaming. So I see a future with Yorwrath and Val presiding over a house full of little half elf half human rug rats, maybe not a happily ever after, but a bitter sweet ending.

Hey now Bronx, not everyone here has an aversion to elves

Yep, no one wants him now that he's contaminated with unicorn cooties

*shakes head* I guess I'm the one keeping Aneurin Or rather the Shell of Kings

all yours sweetie, I got a yeti I'm partial to

That's an idea. The most likely scenario is that Kayla meets someone at the animal clinic, like a veterinary student who works there part time. They'd have a lot in common and it would be an interesting counter-point to the Jack-Rhona friendship.

Yeah, it'll definitely be bitter sweet but I think their shared loss will be that little seed that grows into love. I don't see aVal becoming his Queen, that would just eat at her until she loathed Anuerin. She's too independent, I like her with Yorwrath and maybe a threesome with Gwnn developes, but you're right, there will always be that hole in their hearts

I'm having a hard time writing it, sorry but its hitting a little close to home, I will try to finish it though. Even if I have to get Magus to write it

Her? She scared ten years off my life! Started writing again, have a chapter out soon

Yay! I can has blanket?

it sounds like to me you all have alot to be thank full for. glade all is well.

Hey everyone! So I was making my yearly list of the things I'm most thankful for and the shortlist basically goes like this: my beautiful wife, my friends, my health...and all of you. As much as I love my story, I doubt I'd have been inclined to continue it without all of you here to read and support me. I never thought, when I started this series, that it would go this long, nor that it would get the response and support that it has. You are all wonderful readers and it's such a joy to read your thoughts and theories, even if they are completely insane. It's the greatest feeling an author can have to know that his fan scan stick around so long after the story has started and still enjoy it just as much as they did when it started. So this Thanksgiving, I'm giving a big shout-out to all of you. You're all wonderful fans, amazing readers, and close friends. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope you're all spending it without someone important to you. Love, Joe
