If Dragon was ever going to have a change of heart that time may have just passed. But then again, I can... appreciate that it's not that simple for him to let go. I wonder myself if I'd be any different.
Sad, but true. I just wish it wasn't like this. | |

| i don't think that his oath included that he has to go over to the dark side when she'll be killed. i think his oath was just a warrior oath like the one Stark did to Zoey. But as said before, stark freaked out when Zoey was shattered, so it must be much more painful for Dragon.

| I am so excited to read Dragon's Oath! It might give us more insight into why he's being so unforgiving and possibly has to do with whatever oath he had made. I wouldn't forgive someone who killed the person I love, but I wouldn't go evil and I think that that is what dragon is doing maybe even unknowingly. I mean he does have ho bag Neferet barking her opinions and lies into his ear all the time..... | |

![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Do you guys think that Darkness will play a part in Anastastia's and Dragon's story? Nope, you're not. I'm excited too. Hope it gets published here in Finland as well. If not... well, I have to order it via Internet. (And have my dad pay because I don't have a credit card. He can take the cash from my account, though.) Oh, I bet it's going to be really cool. I mean, I really like Dragon, and Anastasia was cool. | |

| Okay, the phrase "short but sweet" sounds appropriate. The novella doesn't take very long to read, but it gives great insight into Dragon's character as well as Anastasia and their relationship. It helps show Dragon's violent side, that is more or less his namesake.
After reading I can see that reading this book will not be necessary to follow Destined but if you want to understand Dragon and his actions better, or if you simply want something to wet your appetite until October, then I definitely recommend Dragon's Oath.

| I bought it! Haha, thanks wazzuman, I bet you I'll finish it tonight ![Razz](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_razz.gif) ***** YEP! I'm done! I'm going to write my thoughts on it now, so for any of you who haven't read it yet DO NOT click! lol For those of you who hAVE, I'm dying to hear your thoughts and opinions on the novella! ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif) - Spoiler:
Ok, so starting off, I think the cover of this little side story exceeds all the actual HON book covers. It's just sooo beautiful with her reflection and the sword! The purple was lovely also. This cover's detail was awesome. So the PROS for this tory in my opinion: -Anastasia's characterization was well done. She made witty remarks and came up with intelligent ideas throughout the story. I love how she had this childish side to her she always was trying to hide. It made me like her all the more. Plus she didn't sit around when things got rough, she actually played a part in fighting back. -The spells. The spells Anastasia casts in the story are well thought out and researched. I was interested in what she was doing and wasn't left feeling bored or like I was having random nature-type thingies thrown at me. -The Raven Mocker. Who the heck was expecting that?! NOT ME! I like how it enlightened us that the Raven Mockers have been lurking around for a while now and that Dragon has a past with them. And also it shows Kalona was actually devising a scheme in order to free himself. Doesn't that make you excited to see how he called Neferet to him??? I just freakin love the Raven Mockers, they add a lot of creepiness to the stories and I somehow manage to always feel bad for them. - How Dragon and Anastasia met. That was just awesome. The part where he was all in a trance by her words during the spell and she suddenly yanks several strands of hair out of his head made me really laugh. -The same sex couple. I just love how PC is not afraid to show what's actually going on in the world. There's nothing wrong with loving the same gender. Love is love, the end. - The art. It was phenomenal. Like gorgeous. As a student studying art I was inspired by the lovely drawings done at the start of every chapter. Much kudos to the artist! Now...the CONS...dun Dun DUN! (in my opinion ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif) ) : -The villain. The dude was evil, no question, but his motive seemed too weak. I don't know, he kind of lacked something. Other than that, he was pretty evil. -The love story. Now hold on! I'm not saying the romance between Dragon and Anastasia was bad, I just think it was rushed. But hey, this was a novella right? I'll give PC credit on this one. Otherwise their story was beautiful if not somewhat cliché. -What was with all the poetry? I get the spells part, I get the people realizing the truth about Dragon part as it was part of the spell, but I don't get when Dragon is talking to Anastasia at the end why they are speaking in poem. If I'm upset and trying to beg someone to stay with me I'm not working out a clever stanza in my mind to say to that person. I don't know, I found that part kind of cheesey. The beginning when he's at the pyre and the end when he's still there as well seemed cheesey too. Just his self dialouge. -Dragon chooses Darkness! Like uggggh. I am now fearful for Rephaim's life haha Side Note: Anyone else notice the similarties between Dragon and Rephaim, same with Anastasia and Stevie Rae? Dragon & Repahim: - Abusive Fathers who seem to enjoy chocking them and who eventually disown them. -Both have to overcome the beast (Dragon/Raven) using their humanity...Dragon has failed. - Both have pride issues. -Both claim that they are just the monsters without their preistesses. Stevie Rae & Anastasia: -Earth affinities. -Blond hair, blue eyes. -Criticized on how they dress. -Both their moms love them very much despite being around humans who don't accept their daughters. I don't know haha I was like "Heeeey." Everytime I noticed a similarity. I think that maybe, just maybe, the similarities might be seen by Dragon and maybe he'll realize what a butt he's being and forget about vegence and forgive Rephaim so he can turn back to Nyx and reject Darkness. Man I hope! But what are the chances of that happening?
Any way, I hope you guys love it just as much as I did! ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif) | |

| In all honesty, I think Dragon had every right to hate Rephaim. I get that Rephaim is good now and loves Stevie Rae, but that doesn't change what he did. I know you're not supposed to hold grudges and all, but I don't think Dragon is holding a grudge, he has a deep desire to avenge his mate. You know what he was like after Anastasia died, he had to be kept away from any building he could throw himself off of or something he could kill himself with. Imagine how many times that sadness and rage would be multiplied by when his Goddess asked him to accept the thing that had killed his mate, his wife, his true love! Dragon doesn't have the right to kill Rephaim, but he does have a right to hate him. | |
