Final SPGOF Author's Note and Dedication

This is not a new chapter, I'm sorry to say. But, for those who are following SPGOF and might not know yet: the first chapter of Sephiroth Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is up.

Chapter updates will be weekly, hopefully. I look forward to entertaining you and reading your comments.

In the meantime, I would like to comment/point out that I make no claims to the plot twist where Harry is Sephiroth. If you check the archive, there is a challenge listed somewhere in here called "Harry Potter is Sephiroth or descendant request" by Acolyte of the Blood Moon. I grant credit for the initial inspiration to that challenge. Of the four - FOUR! - stories I started over the last two years in an attempt to fill it, I think this is my best offering. Even if I did have Harry merge with his memories of Sephiroth at an earlier point in the timeline than was suggested.

If I ever finish the other three, I might post them. Still, I've set them aside to work on this story and a couple of others. Once this series is complete, I may - MAY - be bringing back Bind the Serpent. I make no promises, however. My muse is thinking about pondering the idea, if you get my meaning. At the very least, I will try to update Possible Meeting at that point.

I want to, again, thank all of those who have encouraged me. This story is dedicated to all of you.

This dedication includes readers and reviewers on FFN and AO3. This also includes the people in my household: my husband and my mother. Despite living with us and having to deal with the casual annoyances that such a situation implies, she has always encouraged me to write. Also, she is (and has been) an excellent resource for grammar and other facets of the English language. Probably because she has a degree in the topic and taught it. (Though, I still insist that we speak American in this country, not any form of English that is remotely recognized by the region bearing that name.)

For those who haven't gotten there, yet - a look at the first chapter of Sephiroth Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:

Harry James Potter was less than pleased. He had been entered into the Tri-Wizard tournament. He had out flown a dragon, rescued the fair maiden from the lake (Okay, it was Ron. Still...), and emerged victorious from the maze. He had regained the memories of his past life and defeated Voldemort for what he was sure was only the latest of many times.

But, the Headmaster insisted that he return to his Aunt's abode. There was no commentary on how or why he had the authority to insist that he do so. He simply commanded and all those around him obeyed. If Harry didn't know better, he'd say the man had all of his friends under the Imperius Curse.

Well, at least he was fairly certain the old coot didn't...
