Wonderful! I can’t promise I’ll be available (looks like I just got a job and I have another one starting up in late May), but I will try. 🙂
Ahhh, ok! I wondered about the tent/pavillion thing. I think my confusion over the setting was just because I didn’t read the scene where they first saw it. 🙂
I do usually like harsh love, but something about the king struck me as… mm, IDK, wishy-washy? He tends to swap back and forth between harshness and gentleness with no warning at all. My brain is still trying to decide if it likes that or not. XD
I wondered if it was an analogy!! I noticed the taking-on-of-guilt, jealousy, and works-doesn’t-save-you bits in there, thought the whom do you serve was harder to pick up. Now that I know it’s in there, it’s glaringly obvious. XDDDDD Brilliantly done!
of course, the parallelism isn’t perfect (as no analogy is…) but as a sovereign ruler, I tried to show that the king said more than he actually said. =)
That… actually makes sense. XD
