a wonderfully cruel tale. and it's so nice to revisit the tyrant once more! this vignette is especially affecting for those of us who fawned over her in "the assistant" (myself included). the way this ends... "The saddest part is that there will be more like you. There always are." what a brutal way to dispatch her simpering artist. his infatuation with her is so well set up, knocking him down in this way was a real pleasure.
what a beautifully written crush sequence. I was very jealous of this one. how clear and vivid it is. wonderfully cruel indeed. and the psychological torment really adds to it, for me. I wish I had written it.
and, just like any of your stories, there are many very enjoyable small details here, such as those torches full of writhing people. what a hellish and amazing add. it's always such a pleasure to see what your imagination conjures up!
I'd love to see more vignettes in the tyrant's realm. she is very inspiring. I could read a dozen more. a hundred more! you know... if you've got some time. :p
I've read this twice now, and I know that I will read it again! not to sound like a broken record, but simply wonderful! it does so much with so little. that's the hallmark of a powerfully written story. it's truly a favorite piece of writing for me anywhere.

Really enjoyed your depiction and use of language to convey Elijah's misguided emotion and the fact of its irrelevance to the Tyrant.
Author's Response:
Thank you! That's exactly what I was trying to convey in this story, the idea of misguided adoration. I'm glad that you enjoyed it! :)

Awesome story! Love the cruelty of the giantess ;), also, are you planning on continuing your "interrogation methods" story?
Author's Response:
"Interrogations Methods" is on my to-do list of stories. I have the rest of the story mapped out, so I just need to write it.
