Just caught up now on the last 2 PMs you sent.
Jade_Max posted:
Barriss rolled her eyes and glanced upwards. The ladder extended into the darkness further than she could see. "After you."
"Nervous?"
She snorted. "I just don't want you looking up my robe."
LOL.
That was greatly action packed. I liked the lessons and insight that Barriss got from the experience with fighting Dooku, seeing how it effected Anakin and from also losing her Master.
Jade_Max posted:
The pain never left but in time you became numb to it. You learned to live with it, to draw strength from its source. In time it eased into acceptance and in that acceptance a Jedi could find peace.
In time, she too would find peace.
Her death was very emotional and the descriptions about find peace was beautiful.
I love how it ended with Barriss becoming a Knight and telling Anakin to wait to see if those feelings are still there in the future instead of the 2 Padawans walking off in the Coruscant sunset.
I love the idea of a sequel and if you are taking names to start a PM list already for it, please add me

Okay I have been out for a while and just got caught up. Please please, please make sure I get a pm for the sequel. This is my absolute favorite story to come off these boards... ever. Thank you so much for writing it!

I apologize for this very, very, very belated response. 
This was a fantastic story, J_M! You took what I would have pegged as a “crack ship” and you made it plausible and, even more importantly, you made us care about the characters and the relationship in this setting. Brava! 
Of course, my little Anakin/Barriss shipper heart wants a sequel  …I shall try to be patient. 
Thank you for this amazing ride! 
*standing ovation*

EverydayAngel – Thanks I had a lot of fun with this story and the ending, for me, had to be as climactic as the rest of it – and just as emotional. That you enjoyed it
I love how it ended with Barriss becoming a Knight and telling Anakin to wait to see if those feelings are still there in the future instead of the 2 Padawans walking off in the Coruscant sunset.
My muse refused to do the “two Padawans” thing – I contemplated it, but it really didn’t fit the story once I’d finished it – or Barriss’ character. So the ending was left wide open – and now the sequel is in the planning stages *laughs* it’s been interesting to say the least.
I’ll be sure to let you know when I start the sequel.
CodyMonKenobi – Dude!  It’s so awesome to see you back – welcome back and thanks! I’ll be sure to let you know when I start the sequel
Jedi Trace – This is all your fault Tracie – yours and no one else’s!
See what happens when you get my Muse inspired? *laughs* But I don’t mind – this story and its ramifications for the next fic(s) have been a wild ride – both fun and frustrating in places, but overall something I enjoyed.
You took what I would have pegged as a “crack ship” and you made it plausible and, even more importantly, you made us care about the characters and the relationship in this setting.
aww shucks. That just means I did my job right
Sequel Update: Two vignettes are in the works that will take place between this story and the next “epic”. One will be the discussion between Obi-Wan and Anakin about the relationship between Obi/Lumi and Ani/Barriss; the other will be an A/B regarding Anakin’s knighting.
Yes, they’re planned, and yes they’re already being written. Just a matter of time now.
Thanks for reading everyone!

Brilliant. Luminara's death was unexpected, but so very believable. And now Bariss and Anakin have even more obstacles in the way of their relationship.
I wonder what impact Bariss' knighting will have on the rest of the saga?
Add me to the PM list for the sequal. Pretty please?

Of course you can! Once I finish the sequels... they're almost done... time's not my friend right now.

Thank you. I hadn't intended to kill Luminara when I started writing this, but the Muse wanted it and he wouldn't be denied. The ending just didn't work any other way. I'll certainly PM you when the sequels go up.

I just caught up with this story after a major attack of Darth Real Life and no FF-reading.
It's an amazing story!
But, you killed Luminara!! 
I think I'll have to read the promised sequel... 
Very well done indeed.

Thanks for reading The promised sequel is in the works and will be written after a couple of other stories are finished first. The planning for it is ongoing, however - I have help with it!
