The following are the comments that were made to the original Yuletide post in 2008:

Date: 12/30/2008 "...the really quite remarkably beautiful youth beside him"? *smiles* An incorrigible and irresistible Thettalos, and soft-hearted (i.e. mushy) Nikki...how charming!
From: Rubynye Date: 12/28/2008 Oh, this was a delight. Niko, you are such an adorable softie. Thettalos, you have luck, and know it. Thank you for giving them this fun adventure, o author!
From: True River Date: 12/26/2008 I enjoyed this very much indeed - wonderful detail too! :)
From: Tari Date: 12/26/2008 Thank you for writing my request! I know I asked for very specific details, and I'm delighted to see that you were able to construct a story out of them. Glad to see that Thettalos was rewarded by Alexander after all the hardship, though a little saddened to see him drift away from Niko. I also really liked the characterization of Niko; of course he would come to the rescue of a poor slave girl along the way. Thanks once again!

Date: 12/25/2008 This is a great story. Really enjoyed it. The descriptions and setting are perfect. Loved the characterizations. My favorite lines were: "No Dion indeed. And no Penelope either."
And, oh, my, about the poor girl's mother being optimistic when she named her Helen.
A wonderful read.
