I'm so glad you liked it :D I'd never have tackled Nicci if it weren't for the fact you enjoy her character and this pairing so much and I wanted to do something you'd like. If I got Nicci right, that's mostly down to your fics, which showed me sides of her I'd not considered before. And I couldn't resist a bit of Rahl angst :D
Honestly, it was supposed to be a drabble but Nicci and Rahl had other ideas, and I never look the muse in the mouth, so to speak. I may want to do more, and yes, the next part would probably be Rahl's pov. The overall fic would need a new title, and I'd need to check some facts and maybe brainstorm a bit; for example, I'm not even sure why Nicci did fry Rahl in 'Tears' other than to prevent him from interfering in her own scheme, nor why she let him live.
The void after death; it occurred to me after I wrote Nicci's debate about the Creator vs Keeper, that she'd turned her back on them both, and that she was dead for a short time before being revived and would have seen the Underworld if that was where she was headed. So what did she see? Maybe nothing, and what that might mean for her, and the world, raises some questions.
