Oh my host, this is big. But the prose is lovely. And your plot has me hooked. I'm saving this for tomorrow night, with the lights dimmed and my cocoa steaming next to me.

I'm stunned. This chapter is just so beautifully written that it makes me what to go crawl under a rock with my book. Hahaha. Wow.. I'm just breathless thinking of how well you described things. This is truly a masterpiece!

The detail is soooo freaking awesome. And the picture on the story reminds me of Rapunzel from the movie "Tangled"
