So I read the other two parts a long time ago, I just haven't had the time to comment. So when the final part came up, I figured, hey time to comment!

One of the things I've always enjoyed about FFX is the whole "loss of innocence" themes throughout it, and you really captured that. I especially like reading from an Yevon perspective, because people are quick to suddenly discuss all the wrong and not realize that it's, well, a faith. Even if it's self-defeating.

Overall, enjoyable, wonderful handling of the virginity issue, and fantastic characterization throughout. Way to go! Experiment worked!

Thank you so much for the comments and I'm glad you enjoyed reading it.

I'm relieved that I was able to represent both characters well because knowing so little about Shelinda made it difficult for me to grasp her attitude at times. I'm glad she came across well and I hoped I made her a little more 3-dimensional.

Thanks again for your thoughts, it means a lot.

I must say this is a very interesting fic.
I've been searching for fics with Shelinda in them as a main character and I find it amusing that the two I've found, yours and one other, have both been about the Shelinda/Seymour Pairing.

The progressions through and the capturing of ht epersonalities is simply wonderous. You were able to keep Seymour extremly in character and you did a great job working with Shelidna despite the less available knowledge with her.

This fic was a spectacular emotional journey which really feels like an untold part of the game the creators left out. Simply spectacular

Well thank you so much for your feedback, I really apppreciate it. It makes me happy to know that you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun writing it. Shelinda was quite a challenge, but I'm happy I was able to keep her in character.

I'd love to check out the other story you mentioned if you remember the link! But thank you so much for the comment.
