	Beautiful story, dear. I loved how seemlessly you flowed the present with the past and flushed out the story of the fight in Godric's Hollow. The pacing was slow in the beginning, reflecting their earlier lives in peaceful harmony, then it erupted with Gellert's pained entrance. Brilliant work! (Reply to this) (Thread)
