I look forward to seeing what tasks and torments Litea endures during this journey. I like the sense of danger and uncertainty about whether she'll be ransomed or disposed.

Still getting a kick out of your use of locations from my stories. The image of Gwynne going to Keelah and gorging herself on Fair Folk was very sexy. I think she'd find that most of them can defend themselves pretty well (not to mention the kingdom's own enchanted defenses against visitors). But the fact that she's considering it is pretty hot.
