    I see the next epic poem since Iiliad and Odyssey Miles. Put these together and, *whistles*, you have something all right.

    And of course me being me has to mention my love for eloquence. Fantastic!
    I am immeditaly drawn to "The Lady of the Tower" series for the language you use!

    High praise indeed from such noble writers!

    There is more to come, though, once the inspiration seizes me. After all... an epic battle is to be had... and the fates of lovers eternal must, of course, be revealed....

    Not at all, Donald... just different kinds of poetry. I read yours and thought to myself that here was a wisdom, a remembrance, that I was lacking.

    So while you give me a wonderful compliment, I cannot accept it without returning it in kind.

    The suspence grows within each stance and more information adds to the story creating a better understanding in each part. The story is laying itself out in a poetic way and it is going very well. I am intriguied, and caught in it i must say and the depicting characters suplly the reader with new knowledge and backgrounds of each one. I really admired this line, "I stand firm and strong 'gainst Fate's dire plans for us." because it portrayed the "light's" power an strength which I'm not mistaken is predicting future exceed.
    One critisizm
    You seem to repeat, "I blur into night well cloaked by my power,
    The eve ill putrescent with energies dour."
    the rhyming scheme in those lines has reappeared in each scene, I don't know if this is a technique your using, but it seems unaware of. So my advice-if it is a technique then format it better so it fits mre profoundly in the piece.
    other than that, well done
