- Oh, nice ending. Surprising, to put it mildly, but nice nonetheless. Planting the tree was a very touching scene for some reason.
My only complaint is the chapter titles. Some of them look like Latin, some like... Gaelic? I get it, sometimes another language is more interesting/expressive/whatever, but unless your readers know the said language, it communicates nothing. Yeah, I know I'm being incredibly fussy about it. Can't help it. Sorry. :P
All in all, this was a fantastically well-written story with an interesting plotline, dynamics between the characters, and some nice twists along the way. Wonderfully done. I enjoyed every second of it!
Author's Response:
Lol! The titles contain their own joke: the first seven chapters spell out S.E.V.E.R.U.S and, as Severus is a Latin name, they're all famous Latin Mottos, each referring to the theme of the chapter. Harry, on the other hand, is a Saxon name, so the next five chapters spell out H.A.R.R.Y in Anglo Saxon phrases, again, each referring to the prevalent theme of the chapter. I could write out some translations if that would help but, really, all one needs to do is a quick internet search ^^
I'm glad you enjoyed the story ^^, I wanted the planting of the Rowan to be a touching scene so I'm glad it came across as such. The Rowan is called the Lady of the Mountains and, therefore, it seemed very fitting to end the story with the leitmotif.
AU GoF. Fake-Moody kidnapped Harry before the first task. Now Voldemort is dead, Harry and Hermione are the only ones who know how he died, and the Death Eater Severus Snape has vanished without a trace. 2010 Challenge Fest entry. Response to Student Snape by Foolish Wishmaker.

- I so love tormented souls. Harry's very messed up, isn't he? I'm glad Hermione's there for him.

- I feel for Dumbledore. After all, those things he did, it was 'the lesser evil of the two' kind of choice. Poor everyone.

- So sad it's over. I wish it were a bit longer to show us some interaction between Snape and Harry. Even so. Well written, slightly heart-breaking and perfect all around! As always, Bil. :)
