hardly would I believe that you need much help I think this chapter was well planned and developed. You held my attention to the end and left me wishing the story continued now so I could read on

I must say that i love the direction this has gone. The story is fascinating and still adds to the bigger picture of the overall story as well. I don't think you will have a problem with lrngth as long as the stories withun the story are compelling like this.

I'm thinking this story could go several more chapters. Very wise of you to give it some slack in the leash and let it roam where it will.
So the fate of the city balances on a razors edge. Will Allutia go to see Tibertin and find him not there? Will she then have to make the final choice between him and her freedom? Will Tibertin end up a slave under Allutia's rule. (how's that for a twist?)
Excellent chapter. Great tension building. I liked the subheading format. It made things easier to follow.

This has such a classical feel to it Mikey. I said before it smacks of Shakespeare (and I mean that in the best way.)

I do have one problem area:

It was a terrible oversight on Tibertin's part. Time would tell if it was a fatal one. [Is this the Author acting as Narrator, instead of Tibertin? Author intrusion is rarely an acceptable way to get information to the reader. Is it important for the reader to be given this foreboding? Is there anyone in the drama who could make the observation? Just a suggestion. Even Shakespeare used the devise of the witches over their cauldron to tell of the auguries.

    Now I get it. I didn't quite have a handle on what author intrusion was exactly. I see it now. Great explanation. Okay, I'll see what I can do to fix that. That will also be on my mind in the future as something to avoid. Great feedback. Appreciated your input on the character's thoughts recently as well. Sometimes spelling it right out is the only way we get it! Hahaha. mikey
