not read the chapter yet, but wanted to say i thought your quoting of the rede was very well placed.

I only understood part of the prophecy. Very interesting plot so far. Liked Kirstin very much.

Wow. So many new chapters in one day! I am officially in love with this story. I hate to say this, but...I think your version of events, so far, is more plausible than what the writers of BtVS came up with. As much as I love the show, this story just seems more cohesive and logical. For example, the Council having informants on the hellmouth. I always knew that both they and the Initiative had either persons or a system of communique on the hellmouth. I love the introduction of Kirsten and what she has to say. Her reference to "the seer" and "the souled one" - do they indicate Cordelia and Angel? Do you intend to bring events of AtS into play with this story? That would be impressive, and a very massive undertaking. Obviously, "the red one" and "the yellow one" refer to Willow and Tara. I am intrigued to see how far and how fast your Willow will be drawn to darkness (if at all). I also am sitting on pins and needles waiting to see how you bring Buffy back. I would hope that she is not too broken or un-Buffy like, but I trust whatever you choose to do with her. Like I said, I am loving this story. The changes you have made just keep impressing and intriguing me. Thanks for posting again so soon. Can't wait for more!

Thanks for the big update to day. This chapter was great. I love that you are bringing your knowledge of wicca and witchcraft to the story. The Willow section of this chapter was so dead on - her ability to delude herself about the danger of what she is planning and then her nervousness at not yet having every problem solved. I love the mystery element with Kristen and Spike's conversation and the prophetic words she spoke...I wanna know what this all means!! lol
