:D I'm glad you like the story! I'm really intrigued by your interpretation of the proverb. It's definitely a good depiction of what's going on here, but I also can't keep out the image of that while the war is going on the devil is going about tidying up, and making sure there are lots of places ready, kind of like the nurses at the field hospitals when a battle is about to commence.
I was desperately waiting for someone to comment with the 'holy crap, you made Emma a nun? Are you serious?' So you get the award for that. And definitely, her choice of vocation has a lot to do with her family.
And randomness - was it you who did the most recent post in the discussion on prologues on Book View Cafe? It seemed... relevant. I was the one flailing about Sabriel the whole time.
