omg continue! this is such a good story

I have been most intrigued by this story, you have created a most interesting scenario, which I find to be.......hmmmmm .

At th end of the 3rd chapter your authors note stated that you would like comments and allowed us to ask questions that were relevant or interesting in one way or another, so here goes;

when are you going to get on with it woman and write some more of this wonderful story?? 

can't wait for more dialogue between the two

wow, just WOW... I read all five chapters today and I must say this has been such a fantastic read! I find your characters and their though processes very realistic, was especially impressed about the detail regarding the killing curse, have never thought about it in that way before! So interesting! I'm really excited to find out your reasons as to why Voldemort has an agenda against Muggleborns, really looking forward to the next chapter! Please update soon! :)

Dun dun duunnnn. Ooooo, I am on the edge of my seat waiting to read what Hermione discovers, if she solves Riddle's riddle, and what that sexy, mysterious Severus has up his black sleeve.

ohhh, please update!!!!! The quote I noticed is the 'sometimes I think we [hogwarts] sort too early. And i think the knowledge is power one too...

I found your story through the banner you posted in the Owl Post-- it was lovely and I'm always interested in LV/HG fics! Count me very impressed - with your gorgeous banner and very interesting story. The quality of your writing is uniformly excellent. I love Powerful!Hermione-- and I like seeing her wrestle with the moral vagaries of what makes something Dark. Am very much looking forward to seeing where you take this! Well done!

You absolutely must update this story. I've read it and now I'm so hungry for more!!

Draco's death killed me. Crying in front of my computer like a baby. Damn you Lucius. I think I quite like Narcissa though.

Ohhh, my dear... I'm really sorry that I made you cry *passes a tissue as a peace-offering* But then, there's a part of me that is tickled happily that the scene brought out such a reaction out of you. Have to confess: I wasn't completely dry-eyed myself when I was writing it :( The image of his dying was so clearly in front of me that it was unbearable.... *sniffs*

those nightmares would be terrible. but how could she not lay all the blame on herself if she is the only one left alive? die Wormtail. you deserve nothing less. I was hoping she would wordlessly/wandlessly kill Pettigrew. that was mostly the case.

Author's Response:

Being a detailed dreamer myself for all my life, I never considered nightmares to be the ones where you're chased by monsters or meeting the boogey man. It's the psychological ones that wound the most, and that's exactly what's happening to Hermione here. She has been abandoned with only her senseless blame for company, and it is literally eating her from inside out. But at the same time, there's a piece of her that wants to continue living, to continue getting knowledge - for in my opinion, whilst Harry was always ruled by his heart, Hermione is ruled foremost by her mind.

wow, what an amazing story! please update again soon!!!

I need more. you have to finish this soon!

Author's Response:

Lol - your obvious enthusiasm is very appreciated! :) As soon as I update one of my other stories, I will start working on the next chapter of The Rise of the Dark Age (promise! *puppy eyes*) Thank you very much for your support, mandeemalfoy )))) xxx

Love.

Author's Response:

Lol, thank you! A short but sincere review ;) xxx

Great story. Chilling, but great ;)

Crap. All my reviews are gone. Grrr...

I posted the other review on AFFnet because you had to repost your story there and lost all your reviews, and now this happened here. It's like the devil's at work or ... perhaps Dumbledore's Army? Evil redheads? Yeah, now we're getting to the true culprits. XD

However, it really irritates me when my reviews go haywire online because, and I'm not kidding, I swear it takes me a long time to write them because I like to go through a chapter, quote lines, point out what made me laugh, cry, etc.

And in your case, there was a lot to quote and to like.

Shoot. If I'd had them saved somewhere, I'd have reposted. Now I'm afraid you'll just have to do with the memory of it.

But I can say this: I absolutely love this story so far. So go write, write, write. I am impatiently waiting. Desperate for some good Tomione. There are far too few of those, and this is looking so incredibly promising, it makes me check for updates all the time.

Much love,

dax or nerys, whatever you prefer. LOL.

PS. If you want to avoid having to clog up your chapters on AFFnet with review replies there, you can always PM your response to me here or on FFnet. *waves*
