I am not sure how I overlooked this story.  But I am so glad to have found it today.  I enjoyed the viewpoint through different eyes.

It was nice to read something from Jehana's viewpoint, and showing the pain, love, even the wistfulness of past issues resolving and becoming the integrated person denied  by circumstances. I liked her thoughts about learning to love again, and her slow engagement and marriage thoughts with Barrett de Laney.

Oh, I am glad you commented on this story, I wouldn't have noticed it otherwise. I really enjoyed it, but would have dearly loved to have seen it continue all the way to her wedding with Barrett, I would love to see at what point they admit to one another that the attachment is more than just pupil to student, and how the details and implications for the court are arranged...

Having read the chapters of 'Forgiveness', it is well written, much enjoyed and full of hope, and love.
To see Jehana's perspectives, and he hopes for a new future, I can't pity her. She is a strong lady in her own way.
Perhaps the story can continue with the courtship and marriage of Jehana and Barrett. That should be exciting and informative.

I have read and reread this story and enjoyed it more every time. I can't believe I never commented. I especially love stories that show the characters in more everyday situations and It is lovely to see how Jehana is changing. I am just a little sad that Brion does not get to be part of it. I sometimes wonder if he would have learned more about his own magic and perhaps been better able to escape Charissa's dastardly plot if Jehana had not been so adamant against it. You are a wonderful writer and it would be great to see more stories from you.

This short story centering on Jehana shows a lot about what she has had to go through, the slow self-acceptance, the exploring of mind, emotion,reconsidering the past thoughts and actions. The best of all, are thoughts for the future, for HER future. It's not often that a mature adult can 'bloom from within', yet she she has the confidence to admit she can, and is taking good strides in many way.

Very true!

I remember reading this long ago, It is delightful!  I am so glad you have caused it to resurface.

I think this would be a wonderful inclusion in KK's Anthology. Chapter 7 could even be a perfect stand alone. It should be brought to her attention.
