Wow, I never expected to hear something like that about Loren. If Michaela had known the story, she wouldn't have been upset with him for shooting with Katie so close. It is sad to hear that there was so much fighting involved back then...
Sully speaks Russian?? Love that! It is so great that they are together again!!! Thanks for this chapter, Debby!!

Hi, Marion. I thought Loren needed a little back story to explain his wanderlust. In researching the battle, the opportunity presented itself.
Nothing better than M&S together.
I appreciate hearing from you.
All the best,

I understand why Loren had the nerve to shoot, but a handgun is not very acurate no matter the skill of the shooter. I believe he needed to take the chance when there was an opening because they wouod kill her when they were through with her

Hi, Lynn. Loren was at fairly close range since they were still near the horses. It was a tough call, but as you pointed out, given what he had done to Sister Mary Margaret, in all likelihood, Bart would have killed Katie, too. Anyway, I thought it would make for an interesting part of the story.
All the best.

Hi Debby interest chapter and to learn about Loren. I think he should have the chance to love again.
I'm glad Sully is back, but hope nothing happen from his scrach when he was looking Preston change to his sute. I wonder what Sully is going to do after Cloud Dancing talk to him about Preston. I hope something good comes from that.

Hi, Rosie. It's good to read your thoughts on this chapter. There's more to come with Preston.
All the best,
