I've sent it on Fanfiction, but anyway, here it goes!
About the Oblivion fanfic, "The Gatewalker"
"First of all: English is not my mother language, so please forgive any grammar mistakes!
What can I say? It's been a month since I read this fic, and I still can't let it go from my mind.
It's 2016, and I played Oblivion only this year (yeah, I'm really really late), as soon as I finished the game I started my mission to find cool fics about it (specially with Martin Septim) And all of them were the same... They described the game with a cool OC, and then, Martin dies, just like the game, exactly like the game, and life goes on for the OC, like nothing happened (god dammit! Martin Septim died, how can life go on like nothing happened?!)
But your fic... Oh, your fic! It's by far the best fic I ever saw. As I said, it's been a month, and I just can't let it go from my mind. Every time I think about Ailirah and Martin my heart warms a little. I can't imagine any other Champion of Cyrodiil with Martin anymore, it's just Ailirah and him, and no one else can take her place. (Everyone imagines their original characters being the Champion of Cyrodiil while playing Oblivion, I just can't imagine my OC's anymore, it's just Ailirah, she is THE Champion for me)
The way you described the scenes, and the way you constructed the characters, their feelings and thoughts, it's perfect and beautiful.
Your story completely caught me (it's true! I'm Brazilian, English is not my mother language, but I've read all the pages of this story, one after one, desperately).
For you to see the power of the way you described the scenes: it was 4AM when I read the part when Martin sacrifices himself... And I cried, I cried like a child (and it's been a looooong time since the last time I've cried over a fictional character). I felt broken and ill just like Ailirah for almost a week, until I finish the fic, then I felt better (that's the real power of a well done first-person story).
No one else could describe the Oblivion characters as you did, it was a perfect work!
Well, I'm sorry for the long review, long story short: you are amazing! This fic is amazing! Keep on the fantastic work!
Last thing: there are two songs that makes me think about Martin and Ailirah all the time I listen to them, I'd like to share them with you:
'Empire' by Of Monsters and Men
'Goodbye My Lover' by James Blunt
I wish I could really say what I feel about this story... But my English is too poor ;-; and I don't have enough words to describe it in this language
I'm trying to do some fanarts of it (well... I'm failing miserably) but if I manage to do something, I'll try to post it on DA and show you... Ok?
If u write a book in the future, I'll totally buy it! Ok, I live in Brazil, but I'll manage to get it somehow!
Anyway! That's All! I'm sorry if all this text sounds crazy... But thank you for this amazing fic (again). Everyone should read your story (that way i would have more people to fangirl about it xD)"

Hi, I'm not sure if you ever come on here anymore..(according to your journal)..but I'd like to say thanks for the wonderful fanfiction on db..you've really brought the characters to life.
However, you have made one mistake that maybe you should go back and correct..
Sarielle gets harrassed by a certain dark elf - but I think you mean Alvas Uvani the Silencer with an allergy to honey..not Banus Alor, the speaker for Leyawiin. : )

Well I do not write, I just read the fictions (I don't even have an account on FF.net so far, but I will change that, if I have time). I'm from Germany and my skill in expressing myself in English is far far away from good, so I don't want to expect you to bear my poor attempts. But I can understand a lot and I know some things about good literature,so...I am here

I don't know what the procedure is with this kind of stuff, but one of your scenes in Forged in Darkness inspired this: [link] , and I'm not sure whether this counts as fanart of the 'fic since it's a little changed from the actual scene, but I thought I'd let you know anyway. Hope it's okay I have that up.
