This work has reached the exceptional level

Aallotar is my favorite in this chapter. She's very protective of Mara, I mean, their fates are joined, and whatever her father and uncle has called her for can't be pleasant. Especially when they see her mother and Aallotar with her. I fear Mara's friend might change to protect her, maybe attack her father, brother, or uncle. Man, I wish you didn't end it like this Olsen!! Ugh! You're baiting me! :)

No typos I noticed but I noticed a extra space: The Red Mountains are full( )of betrayal for a spell-breaker."


Please post the next chapter soon! Can't wait to read it!!

    Thanks for reading and reviewing. It?s definitely clear (I hope) that Aallotar?s not a huge fan of most of Mara?s family, which should have some interesting consequences.

    Yes indeed. Aallotar's a favorite. You're welcome!

Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

K,

Still creating a truly spellbinding world filled with inhabitants that seem to be of your own cunning and crafting. I say that only because I don't know this fantasy world. And, as you know, don't usually care for it. Your writing is so tight and precise - so clear - that the reader is easily able to visualize your characters, their actions, and these scenes.

Only a couple of small notes:
1.) It glowed like nothing she had ever seen before, growing steadily brighter as it came more and more alike.
--> edit for clarity?

2.) "That was not worried," Aallotar mumbled,
--> the worry?

3.) I hesitated to mention it, but 'alright', though often accepted, isn't truly correct. It should always be 'all right'.

Thanks!

    Thanks for reading and reviewing. I?ll go through and see if I can revise the edits saw as necessary. Might be a bit slow going, exams have been brutal.
