Hey, Emily...
I've been meaning to catch up on this one... I guess I missed the story before this. I could still follow things, though, after a little bit of puzzling
I don't read fantasy much, but this is an interesting universe you've set up.
Small problem, though -- it looks like most of part 4 didn't post, so I stopped there... could you edit and include the rest?
Then I'll read the ending.
Btw, I'm deeply suspicious of this "oh, btw, I lost a bit of jewelry once, could you get it for me if you have a chance, it's not important, really" But I don't distrust the queen, so I'm not sure what to make of it.
Looking forward to reading parts 4 and 5!
PJ
