Oh, they can be persistent, indeed! Also, even when other options of a certain stories sound better, they still cannot be forced on the character! The thought that fictional characters can have such a strong grip on their creator is a bit disturbing...
I agree, nobody is perfect. As we can see here, some people even kill their own parents!
But it was inevitable - as I wrote before, I couldn't change the story. I just couldn't.
Thank you so much, my dear, I'm really glad you like my Saga's face

I like flashbacks, too! But too much is too much
Yeah, it is weird - but I think we all experience such weirdness. We just have to come to terms with the fact that our characters have rather strong opinions on their stories and how it should be developed
Thank you very much!

Maybe I use too many truisms, but I believe in this one: children have it better. They do. They don't have that much knowledge about life and death, so they are more accepting of it, finding some fantastic explanation to everything. It's an amazing skill - pity we lose it with time.
This piece was meant to portray Saga's stream of memories - and they are usual mixed with plenty of emotions, since she is very emotional. That's why I used those phrases - like simple truths she had learned in youth and held on to them in time of need. I'm glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for your comment, dear!

Yeah, I think I didn't give Saga the Assassin enough stage time
This is how I imagine her beginnings in the Brotherhood - her connection to Hircine completely lost, the calmness of a hunter shaken for a while. No wonder she was rather enthusiastic about the Sanctuary - her emotions were unleashed; besides, everything was so new and exciting! I think most of the novices feel that way when they're about to fullfil their first serious task.
I think the disdain was the only thing he could feel for the Brotherhood - after all, he disappeared for a reason (although we might never know that reason), in his speech he mentioned sacrifices. I agree, Sithis is definitely more sinister than Daedric Princes - after all, everything about him is covered in veil of mystery, and that adds to the fear. We don't know what the Void truly is - do you disappear when you go there? Not exist anymore? That's disturbing. And yes, escaping from theDread Father is probably impossible - as the case of Saga's father shows us.
I think she was - and is - in denial of what happened. It wasn't her father, her father was a smuggler, everything is fine, it's just the eye that hurts...
Thank you very much for your detailed and truly encouraging feedback!

Both Grim and Nat get an F and are to go to the Headmistress Office with their parents! 
Guys, let me tell you this - I thought about writing this story exactly this way - her father sacrificing his soul. But still, it would be a lie. It's not how it happened. And I know you both get that since we all feel sometimes like our characters decide about themselves against our will. Besides - all that stabbing event occured in a very small amount of time. Would her father be so perceptive to recognize his grown daughter so quickly and immidiately decide to kill himself for her? I don't know. And we will never know since he's pushing up daisies.
Wolfgrimdark - I assure you Kayol did no such thing! Kayol is a good girl and never even thought about stabbing her old man. But Saga, on the other hand...
The thing is, I don't equate myself with Saga. She is just a character. I like her, of course, and enjoy creating her (and sometimes she creates herself), but I don't translate myself onto her.
What can I say? Everybody's writing dark stuff, so do I! But fear not, we're coming back to the fluffy bunnies soon.
Thank you both for your comments!
