What a joyful surprise to find out that Bongo is a black panther. Perfect!
And I am so glad Twilight showed up, as well. I had an idea he was not out of the picture yet. :-)

    Told you... ;) :) And I'll leave it up to the reader to decide panther or just the size of one... ;) :)

I think that Memphis sounds like a little bit of a problem. I hope things work out good for Maggie. How did Maggie's cat and owl get there before she arrived? Did I miss the punch line about the animals?

Ah, the mystery intensifies withe the arrival of the owl and Bongo. Things should start popping now that all the characters are getting into place. Intrigue to the max.

    Hooray, so glad you enjoyed!! Need to finish up the next part just as soon as life slows down a bit....there's a lot to keep active in my head with so many characters in this one and I gotta be focused rather than distracted....perhaps Wed/Thurs... :) ;) We'll see... :) ;) Take care! ;) Yvette

Hi Yvette. I have come late to this one. It would be difficult to catch to forgive me if I only follow your other writings.

I like your style and the use of local dialect to enhance the read. Lovely to see you list the characters with a description of their roles.
hugs

Hi Yvette. I belong to a local writer's group and when someone has a chapt. each month they also supply a synopsis. I think it would help me keep up with books as sections are ready. I just wonder if you do that? I am old and keeping up is a chore for my exercised brain, especially if there are many days between sections. I had to laugh out loud at the word "soon" in the story. Every time I ask my wife when something is going to happen, that is her exact answer. The word is a variable to her. It never means the same thing to her. Z

    yeah -- thought about that, but there is SO VERY MUCH about each of the characters and other smaller happenings that a summary would be nearly impossible without going back and re-explaining things that have been revealed (and others implied/read between the lines) through interactions and descriptions and other such instances. I know that probably makes no sense to you, but I truly don't know how to summarize without leaving out A LOT that is slowly being revealed... :) :) Sorry. I am glad that you found a smile in there.... and thank you sincerely for your review, Z!! ;) ;) Truly means a lot! ;) ;) Yvette

I am more and more glad I went back to the beginning but I'm enjoying it now.

the heat rolling off the exercised Kato lingering there - do you mean 'excited'Kato'?

but the hairs on the back of the Leprechaun's neck - should 'Leprechaun' be upper- or lower-case? I'm not sure. I guess as long as it's consistent throughout the story, it's not a big deal either way.

Kato who had gone from slightly on edge to extremely exercised - again, should it be 'excited'?

"Kato! Kato look at me!" She demanded looking up at the towering young male. - commas after the second 'Kato' and after 'demanded'

And the closer the black cat came to the house, Kato lost a little bit more of his person. - I might have written this as 'And the closer the black cat came to the house, the more Kato lost of his person.'

"Th' cat's 'ers, too?" Peadar tried to keep his nails from extending with his growing irritation with the whole situation. "By Artio*!" is the star at the end of 'Artio' there for a reason?

Shortly, however, Lyca's muscles return to normal. - should be 'returned'

"Welcome to the The Refuge, Marguerite Atkinson," - delete 'the' or 'The'

Great stuff
Best wishes
Judy

Now how did I know that Bongo would precede them? Maybe he was Maggie's consignment after, with the magical quality that all black cats have. Kato was obviously unnerved and restless, and the big grey owl made an appearance as a sign of Maggie's coming, well the new protectress is here, does she know what to do? Well done Yvette, good episode, blessings, Roy
