    Well actually Voldemort said that the basilisk answers only to him and his blood line. Sorry not meant to be a flame but a simple correction:D

    This story has so much damn prose it makes it boring as hell. I mean its great to expand and all but you can overdo like some published fantasy novels.

    ...This post makes no sense. How does a story have too much prose? Do you even have any idea what prose is? Honestly...

    I can only assume you meant either three things:
    1) Too much dialogue between characters (which in itself makes no sense; character interaction is a key to any story, thus it's hard to have too much).
    2) You misunderstand the term prose and actually meant the author was too verbose at times, which I almost understand.
    3) It's almost too poetic. But if that's the case, I'm not sure how you relate that to other published fantasy.

    Doesn't matter to me as I myself find this story very entertaining, it's a unique fic so even if it becomes long-winded at times, I still enjoy it.

    EDIT: I can't spell.
