Beautiful, thank you.

Fascinating! You are so creative!  I love it!

karelia... this was just so beautiful!!

What an exquisitely spiritual tale. I enjoyed it thoroughtly.

Lovely story. I love grabbing the Lady of the Lake out of mythology and making her an integral part of the wizarding world and how she is in a way it's protector. The diary was a wonderful tool to allow Severus to meet the real Hermione. Very well done. Thank you.

Wonderful story.

Very original! I'm glad I found this!

this is a gorgeous story.  i love it so much; i will try to articulate why!  well, the way you used and incorporated the legend of the lady of the lake, and that hermione was to become a priestess, and the reasons you gave why.  and i liked the sort of magical link between the hogwarts lake and her lake, and how you described it when severus ended up there.  and of course all the spiritual and energetic stuff really resonates with me.  and just everything, really.  i had started to work my way through your stories a while back and got distracted, but i'm really happy work was slow today and i got to read this.  : )

Particularly enjoyed Snape in the beginning scenes and the reading of the diary. And your Lady of the Lake was stunning. I loved this story, and I hope that you will keep writing.

I had read this once before, but was delighted to find it again in the highlighted section of this archive.  Since that first reading, I understand much more about such things like the hundredth monkey phenomenon, and so it was an absolute joy to see such modern and yet ancient mysteries of life worked into the story with such beauty.  Thank you so much for writing.

You're a great story teller. Thank you

WTG lady, great chapter!  I can't wait for what happens next.

What a beautiful story.

That was absolutely lovely. 

I  like it very much, nice writing, good job

I Loved this. I like the use of the old tales of the Lady of the Lake.

That was very interesting.  I'd say that it was definitely a departure from your normal writing, but wonderful none the less.  I enjoyed your blend of Arthurian and Potter magic.  Rather tantalizing.  Well done!

I've just finished reading this a second time, and I love it just as much now as I did the first time through.  It's lovely.  Thank you.

You might want to rethink your title to Etude de Magie. Sorry for the french lesson, couldn't help it. Great story btw

Sweet story.It was very moving.I love how Severus worshipped Hermione's body during the Beltane (May King & Queen) ritual, followed by his declaration of love for her.  It was beautifully written and brought tears to my eyes.I love happy endings.  Thank you.:D VERY well done--keep up the good work!☺

Absolutely loved this! See ... this is what I meant - you can take these characters and add such a unique element. The Lady of the Lake ... it's like Red Cloud again ... such mystique. Seriously well done.

Karelia, I love it!  Mystical, swirling, enchanting.  Incorporating the LoL into HG/SS was brilliant. 

Very ethereal.  How did he not know she was referring to him in the diary ? :)

Okay slap me upside the head an call me silly!  Here I am just browsing about and I come across this story I have read several times and what do I discover, but YOU wrote it!  Where is my head.  This again is one of my favorites.  I am so sorry I have never taken the time to tell you.  I love The Lady of the Lake!  It is reminiscent of Red Cloud.  Cheers dear Lady, forgive me?  Irish

Ooh!  I liked this one- it's so irritating when the /clearly/ non-Christian wizarding world gets turned monotheist!  The idea of being taken in and making big change fits nicely with the brilliant Hermione, who is tenacious enough to get it done.  Good show!
