I meant the journey that will bring him to Buffy :p don't know if or when it's gonna happen, but I hope Anne can follow him then, so she can meet Buffy and maybe live in her hall. But I guess it's a long way to go, before getting there, if we're even getting there. You know I like happy endings ;) I hope he won't have to fight the Norse... / Ariadne

I'm glad they're leaving... Poor Anne, it was terrible to read how they treated her. Her thinking of Buffy as a good woman is a hopeful sign and it was good that she hid her brooch from the bitches :) I hope William can bring Anne on his journey, so she can meet Buffy. That would be lovely! :) / Ariadne

Author's Response: wanted folks to see how horrid the bitches could be:) what journey would hat be then?LOL aren't I wicked. more when I can

Yikes! William and Anne's visit certainly was a disaster. Poor Anne, I never would've imagined she was being treated so badly when William was away. :( Loved reading Anne's musings about Buffy. *crosses fingers hopes someday the two women get the chance to meet* Fantastic chapter as always!

Author's Response: glad you enjoyed. I just wanted to show how evil Dru and Darla were. more when I can

I need some timing clarification please.... Is this visit to Winchester taking place the same autumn as Connor & Willow & Tara's wedding? I presume as much but just wanted to verify that we've hopped back in time a bit in William's chapters from where we last left Buffy, et al.

I'm also a bit confused as to how much autonomy Anne has. Clearly, she owned her own property as she was able to sell it to provide William's ransom, and she seemed free to accept the position in Shrewsbury at court, but the talk of her basically living at Harold's mercy threw me for a loop. I need a history lesson!

As always, appreciate the update.

Author's Response: right, yes visit taking place the same autumn as the wedding. Anne would have very little autonomy. she would be able to sell her dowery lands etc as they were her's. but would have needed permission to live there. basically she was desperate when she accepted the position in Shrewsbury, she had also lived there before and could have argued that her early vows to Athelflaed superceeded her mothering duties, though not her wifely ones. if she'd stayed in Harold's hall she would have been totally at his, and therefore his wife's, mercy. a man had total control over the women he was responsable for as head of household in Saxon times. her only escape would have been a nunnery. and she can't do that now as she has no dowery

Oh, really not liking Dru or Darla. Here's hoping Anne may one day find her way to Buffy's hall permanently. Great chapter sweety.

Oh I'm really sad that they had such a bad time in Winchester. I was thrilled when I saw it mentioned in the summary because it's such a lovely place and has so much history (of course I maybe just a little tiny weeny bit biased because I live there!).

Author's Response: I love winchester too, but I really really needed to show how evil Dru and Darla truely were.

Oh, poor Anne, what she's had to endure at the hands of those evil witches. I'm glad she kept the brooch hidden and that she realizes how bad Dru and Darla are and of course Buffy would be so very different to her. William keeps rising up in life, becoming worthier by the chapter. Loved it! Looking forward to more!

Author's Response: she doesn't know how good Buffy would be, glad you liked the chapter. more when I can

I've read about your visitors on the tag. I hope things will go well for you!
Oh yeah, the king is right about William having to protect his back.... with brothers like his.
Wow, indeed, with brothers like his or sisters in laws like he has he doesn't need enemy. Stealing from their MiL? They dare a lot. Would be good to put them down a bit (but there is nobody that would do that).
Buffy would be horrified if she get to know how her MiL would be treated. She would do better.

Ah.. hmm... so... could you perhaps push Dru and Darla over a cliff? Would be nice :) ! A wonderful chapter as always... I love to read your side of this part of time. And its nice to see the difference in living between British folks and Northman folks.
Please.. continue your fine work here and tell your story to all of us.

Author's Response: a cliff now that's a nice idea, but don't worry I have plans of my own. glad you enjoyed. more as soon as i can
