Because i heard longn ago that Pyrrha was based on Achilles this reminded me of Achilles mother said
"You could live a long and peaceful life have children and when you die your children will have children and their children will habe children and tell tales about you
Or find glory in the battlefield and live a short life with honor

I read out loud with these things and not gonna lie, I almost cried on some parts. Thanks for this!

This is a lovely piece! I love the alternation in the first chapter and the scenes that follow add wonderful color to the concept. Great work, and I'm encouraged to check out the others you've written in this general vein.

i keep fighting the urge to regurgitate the same adjectives and same praise for each story
your writing is sublime for all of them, each concept executed beautifully, framed to perfection
consistently consistent in quality, adherence to theme, in freshness of conception

Great job. Keep it up.

This... this was just beautiful. No complaints. It's simply perfect. Good on you, man. Good on you

I must have read this story like, 20 times by this point. It's one I always come back to if I'm feeling down or just want to read something that makes me happy. You write very well and I enjoy your style. Plus this story is just so sweet; not in a saccharine or cloying way, but very wholesome. And as a fan of Jaune and Pyrrha, this story hits all the right notes. So yeah, I know this review is several years after the story itself, but thanks for writing it and sharing it with the world.

I cry everytime

It was a nice read.

That was one of the most solid finishes to a story I’ve read

Very cool story, and the first chapter held up very well in comparison to the 'Oum made a farmer' part.

Man now I respect farmers. Can't believe I never did before.

Ah man that's so sweet.

Nice

beautiful, simply beautiful
