Did a 190 word review of Ch 6 of Sweet Sacrifice - https://forums.thousandroads.net/index.php?threads/sweet-sacrifice.627/post-35421 5 blecs? Is that how that works?

Oh man I think chapter 6 is actually one of my favorite chapters, specifically for that battle in the beginning! From the get go we knew that Lillia was going to win, so the real fun was in discovering how she would win. I have to say, I was like, super excited to see, not sure why. I guess I...

Echo brings Brisa some honey. He thinks she should look out for herself. Koa has been running himself ragged trying to rectify things been trying to help efforts before fighting Maple as much as possible. He seeks out the mysterious Eternatus-Xerneas being. He wants to see how they're doing...

What would that feel like? To leave behind all the fears and baggage of this world? What indeed.... Setting the curious thought aside, he focused. He didn't really know what to look for, only that Icetales hoped to meet his mother. What would she look like? He was about to ask when another...

Koa let out a slow breath as he took in the the sight. This was.... incredible. Yet not in the way he felt when looking at a legendary, but in the way that felt much more... somber. He gazed around at the twinkling lights, feeling on odd tingle of emotions. "What is this place?" he asked...

Koa clung to his perch on Buffet, still awed by everything around him. He felt a little jealous of Owen, who seemed to have no trouble gliding through this strange plane. He watched Icetales briefly, wondering how the Ninetales was truly doing. What did he hope to find by seeking his mothers...

This was all so strange. He'd known about Spirit's Edge, at least vaguely. But he'd never planned on coming here. But if it meant supporting Icetales, then he would stand by his friend, no matter what. Still... to actually be here, standing in some kind spirit world was... incredible, to say...

Chills rippled through Koa. To be abandoned by family like that. Cast aside.... His heart twisted. He wished he could help more or fix what happened but... He couldn't. Icetales had suffered so much... He knew a fraction of it from their previous conversations but. It made him angry...

Koa stood there, quiet. He wasn’t sure what to expect. A reprimand? A lecture in the ways he’d failed? Disgust? He wouldn’t have blamed him if he wanted nothing more to do with him. [/ISPOILER] But as Icetales spoke, his fear and shame changed to confusion, then a strangled sense of relief...

Echo's smile returned and he let out a pleased chirp. He liked Brisa, definitely. She was a good person. He'd have to keep an ear on her, make sure she was doing ok. "Thanks Brisa." He hopped forward and nuzzled her. "You're a good friend." Maybe he'd have to bring Brisa some honey to try...

Echo couldn’t help but smile a little. No wonder his trainer adored Brisa so much. She was cool (almost as good a honey, even). “You know, if Koa wasn’t my trainer already, you’d make a pretty good one.” How ironic. Koa had told him how when he’d first set out on his journey, he was dead set...

How much should he tell? He'd never reveal anything secret about his trainer, but him being troubled wasn't much of a secret either. Finally, Echo nodded slowly. “I think he’s trying to be ok but… it’s hard for him. He never took failure well but all this stuff is just bringing everything to...

Echo took the question and considered it carefully. Brisa was a friend, a good one, so he trusted her. His trainer needed some help, and he wanted to do whatever he could. "He's troubled," Echo said finally. A note of sadness crept into his tone, and his expression dimmed, growing more pensive...

Echo nodded in understanding. Power wasn't always appreciated. "I guess it's easier to fear strength," he mused. Was that why everyone back home was so scared of legendaries? Probably. At least here people were good and kind, and appreciated people like Brisa. "But as long as you keep...

Echo’s eyes widened slightly. “You’re half human?” The revelation was unexpected yet…. Not entirely surprising. Brisa was part human. Although her tone of voice suggested she wasn’t pleased about it. “That’s cool,” he said earnestly. “No wonder you’re so strong. And you’ve done so much with...

Echo's ears flicked and he smiled. That was easy. "Oh yeah! Koa's amazing. Being a trained pokemon is the best. Imagine having someone who's your best friend and who can help you get amazingly strong in battle. Koa looks out for me, I look out for him, even in battle!" He paused to consider as...

He never knew what Brisa's life was like, but it sounded nothing like his world. "Our world is different." He grinned a little. "Koa fought a few mean humans and helped some pokemon but everything here is really different." His expression grew more contemplative. "I guess we got some stuff to...

Echo nodded. "Everything that happened with the spy, right?" His tone remained both bright yet serious. The distress from his trainer during that gathering had been palpable. Maddeningly so. Guilt, anger, resentment... it was his job to protect Koa but physical threats were much easier to do...

He recognized the unusual Luxray immediately. Brisa, Koa's friend, mentor and someone he especially admired, despite his attempts to keep distance. She looked tired. Frowning in thought, he left his perch and swooped into the kitchen, returning a minute later with some berries in his talons...

Echo hung from the ceiling, wings wrapped around his body, deep in thought. As tempted as he was to use the ceiling fan again that Koa had gotten installed, he was more concerned about his trainer. Koa was still distressed, he could sense it easily. Even if not for their mental link, he could...
