Ave!
This story has been a faithful companion to me during the years. It’s so so dear to me, one of my favorite piece of literature. I just finished re-reading it, I think it must be the 5th time, or maybe the 6th. I love it, and I thank you once again for the care you put into it!
Every time there’s a new update I get giddy, and I hope I can read the next part soon. Hope it’s alright to send warm wishes your way, I hope this difficult times were not too bad for you!

I just wanted to leave a note of thanks for writing this epic.
It remains, with Victoria G's 'The Messiness of Life,' the most
excellent and awe inspiring story in the fan fiction
genre that I've ever read.
Thank you for sharing this with us.

I miss General Shizuru and Princess Natsuki so much, especially their raunchy times. Please, come back soon. . I love you. Hope you’re doing well.

I was going to post this on Ch:83 but for some reason they modified it so only one review a chapter per person. That’s dumb.

I just finished this story and all I can say is that this is ABSOLUTELY amazing! Very descriptive, with much character development. I kept reading it non stop. I do hope you are well and will finish this story in the future. It was a fantastic read and get away to have considering this quarantine that we are in. Bravo!

I have re-read your story once more. As expected, it never fails to amaze me on how the story was well-written. It makes me crave for more and wishes that this story will be finished despite its lack of update for the past two years. Your story has become a treasure, is a treasure, for us readers.

I just hope that you are fairing well despite what the world is facing nowadays. I may not know you personally, but I actually pray for your well-being. May you give us another hope that this treasured story will not be forgotten and abandoned.

I am so looking forward to your your next update Ethne! Take care!

First of all I wanna say WOW. ¡Pero que buena historia! Aunque no está terminada y de hecho queda en cliffhanger Vale la Pena cada minuto invertido leyéndola incluso si no la continuas, debo confesar que hubo un momento que la dejé de leer pero no porque me haya aburrido o algo así, sino que es no quería que terminara, ciertamente la puedo releer y reenamorarme( y sin duda lo haré) pero no es lo mismo que hacerlo por primera vez. Una pena que tus otras historias no estén, cuando descubrí Inter nos ya no estaban sin embargo me pica la curiosidad.
Espero estés bien de salud y que todo en tu vida vaya lo mejor posible, cuídate y gracias muchísimas gracias por todo, por la historia,por Catulo y Pindaro de quiénes había escuchado pero nunca me atreví a leer, por Roma es cierto que Hime es diferente en varias cosas pero gracias a este fic mi curiosidad por Roma ahondó profundamente y le ganó un lugar en mi corazón , en fin por todo.
Nuevamente te deseo lo mejor, cuídate mucho.

Beginning for the third time. I patiently wait. A decade of vivid scenes.

Hey! I was just revisiting this old treasure of a fanfic in the troubling times we're having lately with Covid-19 and everything, and I've remembered from your author's notes that your health isn't always the nicest to you. Hope you are doing well and are safe wherever you are now! With love from someone who has always enjoyed your writing

I’m just stopping by to thank you for writing this incredible epic.
It would be great to read more, but even if you never update again your story is magnificent and well worth reading.
I hope that you are well and I wish you love and happiness.

So, I've been holding my breath for more than a year now.

I'ts almost cruel of you to let us hanging like that for so long: what's with Tomoe staging her come back -alongside the infamous King Mithridates of Pontus no less!- with Faris, Calchis and Hiempnos rebellious conspiracy seemingly coming to fruition, with the worrisomely stealthy prince Nagi's fate still unknown and the openly unconstitutional strategies of the Traditionalists back in Hime in this dangerous year; eveything seemed about come to a head (or blow up) in spectacular fashion and all that when Natsuki looked more likely to finally accept Shizuru's marriage proposal!

We were left with a promise of more battles to fight, more scheming for Shizuru to impress her girl with, more ShizNat goodness in short, then suddenly no more updates.

I dearly hope you will come back to this story soon (if you ever left it that is) as I truly appreciate the well written mix of action, political intrigue and character development this has been so far.
I'm also looking forward to more of the art you put out to illustrate your story, it made for a nice visual.
Anyway if it's encouragement and well wishing you need to pick up the pen and the pencil, consider yoursel encouraged and well wished.

Greetings ethnewinter! Happy Valentine's weekend! Hope life is treating you so good!

Wow...every so often, I have to come back and re-read certain chapters of this incredible, intoxicating and engaging ShizNat story. I am so amazed at the long chapters, the twist in plots, and characters development. Just...awestruck!

Thank you for writing and sharing! to your MUSE AND FRIENDS!

Take care..ciao!

Just wanted to say thanks for all of this; I still think about this story regularly and am regularly in awe at its mere existence.

So I'm rereading this for how many times I do not know. It's a ridiculous amount probably. But I started thinking: this story maybe why I'm so interested in Ancient Rome so much for all these years. I first read this back when I was younger and you were like midpoint into the story. At the time I was only interested in Rome in a more passive way. Liking only the way their architect worked.
Bam read a few chapters then you had me taking a Latin class back in highschool lol.

Just wanted to share that thought here. Been a long time fan and I would totally throw all my money at you if this were to become a book. Happy Holidays and Happy New Years!

hi hope to see a new update. thanks you

I just read the entire story for the sixth times and I still love it. Everything is great and I just wanted to tell you one more time. As always I can't wait to read more and I don't mind waiting. I hope all is well for you.
