This was an excellent character examination and so true to the original characters. I can really appreciate the care you must have taken with diction. Truly a wonderful job. Alia has always been one of my favorite characters from the Dune universe.

Loved the story. Very well written.

Kind of wish you had done a Alia's POV for it, though.

Any thoughts on a sequel?

Powerful.

Thank you for sharing.

It can be a very hard task finding a well written fic that I not only enjoy but am struck with such an emotion that is undefinable, and when I do find one, I am forever grateful to that writer. I loved this fic very much, thank you.

This was amazing! I loved Alia and I was really touched with Paul remembering how long she was going to fight... I just always thought Alia was a rather tragic character and that Paul was probably the only one who bothered to try to understand her and cherish her. Please, write again some time soon.

Dune Messiah was always my favorite...this piece feels like it was taken right from it's pages, very nicely done.

This is just plain gorgeous. I *love* this look at Paul and Alia's relationship, replete with incestual undertones that were absolutely present in DM. There definitely is a flavor of Frank's style in this piece, which is tricky to do and even trickier to do well.

You have some beautiful phrases...I' m thinking about "reaching towards womanhood with an open hand" (or however you phrased it exactly.)

Finally, a plausible and sympathetic look at Paul's thoughts about the Tragedy of Alia. Bravo!

You nearly had me in tears reading this.

Very beautifully done.
