High D'Haran Love Poetry -- MASTERPOST

[nike_ravus]

Title: High D'Haran Love Poetry - Give Me a Thousand Kisses - Complete!
Author: Alsike
Fandom: Legend of the Seeker
Rating: R
Pairing: Berdine/Raina
Disclaimer: Berdine and Raina belong to Terry Goodkind, but think of this as their TV-show version incarnations. These are the girls who would hang out with our Cara and (sometimes) put up with her shit.
The eponymous poetry belongs to Catullus. Check out more here (somehow I was unable to find space for all the hilarious ones about his douchey friends and the goats in their armpits). All the translations, in their awkward glory, are mine (with the helpful assistance of Whitaker's Words).
Wordcount: ~20,000
Summary: How do Mord'Sith fall in love? No really, how? The Berdine and Raina origin story, guest starring Cara, Hally, and the ever-charming Darken Rahl.

Don't fear the Latin. Latin is cool! Berdine would be sad if you feared the Latin. :( (Also, It's completely translated in the text.) And the chapters should all be linked to the next one! So if you've been waiting, or doubting, or suspicious, it is time to Read from the Beginning!

this is the end. (Well, for now.)

Hi,

I was curious to know if you had your story hosted on an archive or in a single file anywhere online? Your story was highly recommended and I'd love to read it. :)

Hmm, I don't have it archived anywhere. I did link all the pages together, so if you start at the beginning it shouldn't be a pain in the neck to find the next one. I'll think about getting it up on ffn soonish though.

Thanks for responding so quickly. :) I tend to prefer single file downloads so I can read fic at work off my usb drive. It's harder to save a story when it is on multiple pages.

Well, since you explained so nicely, I went through my main file and made sure it had all the bits. (It might not be as carefully proofread - but sadly, none of my stuff is carefully proofread.) You can grab it here:
