All Comments on 'Homelands Pt. 07 Ch. 02'

I enjoy how you changed the point of view style from the last part. Rather than changing character point of views throughout the chapter, you keep it focused on Cahill for most of the chapter then switch to another character for the last part. It makes for an interesting read and leaves me wondering just will happen next.

Thanks, Myers. I thought it would be good to try something new. Glad you find it effective.

i enjoy that your playing up the head games and intrigue that would occur in these families, that might just be because they are self styled fey rather then the other supernatural flavors we have seen thus far. but it is a welcome addition. i also find it strange how everybody else just hopped on a metaphysical boat to get to the homelands but Cahill has to will himself there, is this an upbringing thing?

Good question, anon. In a sense, everyone "willed" themselves to the Homelands. For Cahill, that means walking into the woods. For the families in Summer, it meant taking a boat ride. The important thing is that they choose to leave the "real" world behind. This is harder for Cahill than it was Eric and Nick and Frank and others because Cahill has visited his family in his dreams so many times that he doesn't quite believe that the Homelands are real. But in a certain sense, they are all entering the Homelands the same way.
