I don't remember reading this before, but just read imagines piece on ffn and needed to read this.

The two stories fit together very well. Both do a wonderful job of tying the stories to the poems. Doing it this way has made the story very touching and set it apart from other works.

You should keep writing. It would be nice to have unique stories on the pretender lists. While it is wonderful to have the adventure, mystery, humor and romance the more poetic style gives us a different touch and look to our "friends".
