Obviously, when she wakes she has time to remove them at her leisure, but I should still probably mention it.

I can't imagine anyone else do it, and the storm will not have done it either (unless you explain how). And a final issue: you should add a speech tag to the first line so it's clear that Rakko is talking. It took me several paragraphs to understand, and in a story this short it adds a level of confusion you don't really want.Katharina Gerlachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223722392075669331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007771869765628624.post-54855052347912681552015-08-28T18:26:26.622-05:002015-08-28T18:26:26.622-05:00Thanks, Kris! :-) Rakko's story will come to l...Thanks, Kris! :-) Rakko's story will come to light in the sequel to Blade's Edge (currently only in existence in my head--but aiming to be put to paper in November of this year). I won't give much away, but I will say that stormcallers are very rare... for a number of reasons.

The rain became..."The wind screamed with her.<br /><br />The rain became her fury."<br /><br />I love those lines. I'm curious to find out what becomes of Rakko, and if there are more stormcallers.<br /><br />Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262417986754667827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007771869765628624.post-36087766711361239452015-08-28T15:02:43.735-05:002015-08-28T15:02:43.735-05:00Thanks!
