Nice start, hate the cliffy...

Wonderful story, I wasn't sure how a Valdemar cross would work but this works very well. I do wish you could continue it!

shame this was never continued. was a good read.

Sorry about the delay in continuing this story. Unfortunately I have had several personal problems that have deeply cut into my creativity. Add to that my computer's motherboard crashed and I lost the next chapter and haven't rewritten it. Actually a good thing. I rewrote that chapter three times and hated every rewrite. Came up with a different angle and I like it. I'm trying to get back into the swing of writing but life is still hitting me from all sides. I know this story hasn't been updated in a long time but I will update.

Very interesting story.
I do hope you can pick this up again sometime

Thank you. I have most of another chapter ready and have finally gotten over my writers block. Now I just have to make time in my 60 hr work weeks!

Oh, I do like the way you are writing this. One minor correction on Al, though. His name is Alberich, not Albreich. Even Ironpants Ashkevron only had a slight alteration to her name, from Savil, to Sayvel, and there were still enough records of Valdemar for her name to be known.

Besides, Alberich is Groveborn, and there is enough evidence of them using the same name each time they come around.

My two favorite stories in one fic and a well written one! this is fantastic! please update, pretty please

I'm glad you liked it. *sigh* I'm trying to write the next chapter but I've been having alot of interruptions. Some of them of my own making (reading way too much, I'm addicted to reading), some of them job related, and some of them family related. I know it's been a long time since I updated but I'm getting there.

a very good start to this story. i liked it .only one thing wrong , you have not writenn more of it!!

I hope you post more of this story soon. I'm really enjoying this blend of the two different universes.

Pleeease update! I really, really want to know what happens next!

Woooooohw! Aside from how Alberich spoke at first, you're doing an excellent portrayal of him. This is a wonderful story so far, and I eagerly await the next chapter! 8/10!

I love this story

It was great to see another part of this story. Thanks for the update and I hope that we don't have to wait too long for another update.

Just found this story, it blends two of my favorite characters, IE Xander and the Karsite Harald. I am looking forward to more as you are able. I have fibromylagia so I understand that sometimes it hurts to function. Fan fiction is one of my favorite escape.

*does a happy dance* More please?

Ah, crap. He just got his channels blasted open a la Vanyel, didn't he. And he's an out of control firestarter. Ouch! I can't wait to find out what happens next. (I also loved Al's dig at Buffy's weapons handling). I hope your muse and schedule will allow you to write and post more chapters sometime soon. Keep up the good work.

Yes, but only his existing channels, not the closed ones. *grins* I thought that little bit with Al over Buffy would fit in well. After all, he was one of the three best fighters produced by Mercedes Lackey. (Alberich, Kerowin, and Tarma. Can you imagine how Tarma would have treated Buffy? That would have been real fun.)
