Chapter 12, "Saying Goodbye" is up.

Yes, it's a very short chapter. But I also wrote a chapter for "I Promise To Never Love you" and "Only In Dreams". I am *very* tired right now.

*Settles in for a long winter's nap*

I'm glad that the three of them were there for each other.

I think warx is right. The King better watch out especially now.

Don't you worry about it being short. You work your butt off on these stories. You deserve a nap.

The chapter may be short but it conveys very strong emotions.

Have a nice nap, though it's a bit late to say that.

Thats one funeral I could find comfort in! She was certainly well-lloved and deserving of it.

Edited to add: Now its time to kick some ass!

Chapter 13, "My Love For You Is A Prayer", is up.

This is heartbreaking. I never expected they would have to be separated, even though it makes sense from a military point of view.
I can't help but wonder though... Could one of them really survive the other one's death (and that goes for the twins as well), Y&L are not twins but their link is certainly as deep.
And Parrish, i have no idea where this story is going, you completely got me with this one.

[samegirl]

I don't know if i'm too emotionall these days, but this chapter brought tears to my eyes...
Is she going to die doc?
I thought they were invencible...
Please keep them safe doc...

[warx]

yulia cnt do that....
yulia cnt do that...
she's nothing w/o lena???(vice versa)
their power is much stronger if both of them joined force

Chapter 14, "Lena's Decision", is up!

Parrish

[PoisonousTruth]

Oh.. *sighs* Why do I think something bad is going to happen... *chants silently to myself* Must not be so cynical, must not be so cynical...

[Veggie Delite]

together again
just as it should be!

[haku]

Whatever happens, they'll face it together, that's what matters.

"My beautiful stubborn love", i like that.

Besides, with the twins, the combination of their 4 powers is probably far more powerful than just the addition of each one's individual power.

[parrish122]

Chapter 15, "War's End" is up! It is also the last chapter in the storyline. However, there is an "extra" chapter, which is an insanely long author's note, explaining the symbolism of the fic.

Thank you, to everyone, who read and commented on the story. It wouldn't be half as much fun to write without the encouragement I get from you all.

:head smoking:

jeez parrish, i need to put some ice on my brain...

i liked the story so much, and i think iĺl read it once more to catch up on those symbol thingies...

excellent work!

[dare2dream28]

Wow that was awesome!!!!!! And wwoooaaaahhh @ the twins' powers!!! And awwwww@ what Ruth did. When I first read what was happening I was like "Nooooo!!!! It's practically done and this just *can't* happen!! Not after how far they've come!" But then I was greatly surprised and very happy. I absolutely loved how Yulia was still joking around a bit even in the situation. That was cute. Well Parrish, another great story under your belt. Two huge thumbs up!

[haku]

Wow, i'm glad i did not read that early this morning LOL

That was a great story Parrish, and the finale is impressive. I think it's fair to say that i missed all the symbols in that story LOL I need to upgrade my brain.

I'll end with a light comment, i can't help it. If i was dying, i wouldn't mind that the last thing i saw from this word was Lena taking off her shirt...

[warx]

its over???
cnt u jst put something else to make the story long....hehehehehehe----me jst kidding parrish....u knw i love this fic......i jst dnt wnt to end.....

so u gonna make another one....

[PoisonousTruth]

Okay, yeah.. my head is a spinning just a tad, but..*L* I reread the author's note and I think I understand it now.

*bows down to the Mighty Parrish* Oh Great One, you have finished another excellent fanfic. Oh how I love your stories.. let me count the ways.

*stands back up* Okay.. Girl, you've done it once again. I loved the beginning, the middle, and the end. I cried, laughed, and did both at the same time at certain parts. If you don't continue writing new ones I'll have to ... to.. *thinks*.. I'll have to harass you until you don't like me anymore.*l*

[parrish122]

Ack! Can you believe I forgot to explain part of the symbolism?

I'll make this quick and fairly simple, so I won't burn out anyone's brain. Jung called the darker side of our nature our "shadow side". So, that's why I called the King's men the "shadowmen".

Also, many myths use the "older, wiser figure" to guide the hero. In more modern times, we've seen that used in the character Gandolf in the "Lord Of the Rings" books. I split that between Morgan and Martin.

I *think* that's everything.

Haku--I *knew* you'd enjoy the image of Lena taking off her shirt! But seeing as how you go catatonic when you see her breasts even when you are in good health...I shiver to think of how soon she'd put you in a coma if you saw her like that while bleeding heavily. Still, there are much worse ways to die...

PT--Do you *really* think you have to worry about *me* not writing new fics? Well, if I died I'd stop......maybe.
