*flails and cuddles this*

I am so glad you finally got around to working on this again. Sonia and Sam are so freakin adorable, I just want to squish them and give them noogies and squish them some more.

*sniff* My heart hurts for Kahlan having to see all this stuff. You see what happens when you trust some dumb boy over your bb, Kahlan? *stern glare*

*shifty eyes*

*gives in and snuggles Kahlan*

Can't wait to see the rest of 'em :D

I live Sonia and Sam so much, I seriously cannot. I'm actually investing in their future (as you well know and will hear about when zombies is done). Guh, they seriously need all the snuggles the can get right now - especially for... uh... well we'll discuss that later when it can be kept all hush hush. XD

*pets Kahlan* I thinkthe poor thing has learned her lesson, this has to be absolute torture *smishes her*

Yeah, you snuggle her - she's got a long road ahead of her. ;)

YAYYYY you finally posted this little gem :)

First off want to say thank you for the credit in your A/N but it wasn't necessary {{hugz}}

Poor Kahlan not only having to see all the key development milestones of her children that she missed but seeing Dahlia being there for them just made it all the more painful!! Just heartbreaking to see what one wrong decision has cost her :'(

Also how funny was Cara trying to have "The Talk"...bwahaha..love how you've woven some lighter moments in with the dark - the kitchen scene, enough said <333...well done ;)

This story is heart tugging, angsty, dark/light and with just the right dash of humour and I LOVE IT!!!

Cannot wait to see the rest and hope for a happy ending for our girls..kplzthx

PS: Best.B'day.EVER!!!! thx bb

First off, missy miss, it most certainly was necessary because you're awesome and deserve credit for being awesome. No arguing or I'll sic Fox on you *glomps*

That's pretty much the theme of the story though - what one bad decision can lead to. There's going to be a lot more angst on the way, specially with what Kahlan went through without Cara. I'm tempted to write a oneshot about that as well.

I feel kinda bad for Cara, she's like, "wtf do I do? This is Kahlan's job... not mine. DAHLIA!!!!" All while trying to be all... stoic and badass Mord'Sith-yet-not-Mord'Sith cos she's not Mord'Sith anymore? At least the lighter moments make for XD

I'm glad you love it - but I think you're getting biased *wink wink nudge nudge*

I shall diligently return to writing... tomorrow. Apparently Tiffany wishes to get me shitfaced tonight in honor of my last final being complete.

PS: GOOD!

Oh goodness, I wanted to read the story so much that I didn't read the A/N and I just saw that this was a sequel to Crimson Regret. (I'm slow, I'm sorry.) Now I'm even more excited for the next part. Also, post as much as you want. :D

Bwahaha, well hopefully part two is all kinds of awesome enough for you ;)

Now pardon me while I go use my bed like a D'Haran whore.

I just read Crimson Regret and it was beautiful. Heartbreaking, but beautiful. :) I'm glad you wrote a sequel! Looking forward to reading the rest.

I'm ecstatic that you thought Crimson Regret was beautiful (and heartbreaking - since that was totally the intention). Hopefully this will be up to par with the previous story.

Before starting this fic I had to read Crimson Regret. The AU place you created was torturous from an emotional standpoint. Kahlan so insecure as to listen and believe Richard and not her love Cara, disappointing and disastrous. The sparse details of Crimson Regret juxtaposed with the many details or possibilities of life with Cara, Dahlia, Sonia and Sam in this fic was a delight. Although from a Kahlan~Cara romance more of a missing out.

I'm a little unclear yet what the second chance the Whisp mentions for Cara is about and that is ok. I wonder is it to just have Cara live, for Cara and Kahlan to relive the past of Sonia & Sam(like a Zedd re-do) or for Cara and Kahlan to have a possible future together. The images that Kahlan is seeing seem to be a real montage of what she's missed or what might disappear if a re-do occurs.

I look forward to reading more, and perhaps learning more about the red guard. Your stories are gripping and compelling. Thanks Kali

I must say then, my goal was seriously met for Crimson Regret. I was aiming for something excessively torturous, but in a good way of course. Hopefully this sequel will explain everything that was not explained in the previous story (sadly not everything will be explained that I want to [such as the Red Guard - it will merely be touched on], but I have a few one shots planned that focus solely on certain issues not covered).

Ah, the Wisp's meaning will definitely be a main plot point for this particular fic, especially for section 3/3.

Hopefully you will stick through with me to the end.

Tying up fics with a bow in nice neat packages is not why I continue to read your powerful words. I like to imagine what's next or what might happen, especially when the possibilities seem endless. The unfolding of events is your present to us, your faithful readers. Never fear, I'll wait around for the next installment, story, one-shot. I like your style and enjoy your gifts. Ciao, Kali

*le blush* Well hopefully part 2 will be up to par with your imagination and maybe even have a few surprises in store.
