In this AU Flora is still known as "Windcutter", whereas Irene isn't "Flash Sword", but "Flash-Strike". Hope that clears things up.

Yes. This clears things up. It's a very good reference: I'm cutting & pasting it on my notes so I can refer back to the techniques. There's so much borrowing of names that I'm beginning to lose track
And who hasn't fallen in love with Flora? She's close to the ideal Claymore...But it's very difficult to write about her. So I think you've done more than decently.

I can understand this approach. But don't you think her change in attitude is too much an absolute about-turn? It'll all depend on how strong you portray that loyalty to Teresa: that desire alone seems to drive her on & on.
