RE: Leitner [my entry to Finish the Story #46]
First of all: congrats on actually getting that @curie upvote. Neaterino to be quite honest. Now let's get to the post and get cracking (obviously skipping over the @dirge created prompt as that is his and this comment is not for the prompt but the obvious finish the story entry; still like where this can go in any a case with the prompt and how it's not all that it seems despite being very much a central European story).
If there's one thing that I like, the usage of the format that the prompt writer uses. That goes for the nice usage of italics for the "thinking" part of the character. The quotation marks where needed for quoting characters at any given moment. The breaks in paragraphs because duh, but sincerely given things like a space and knowing we entered into a different space. Probably the only thing I would mark this for is that the closing stanza/paragraph could've used a <"hr/"> html (just remove the quotes). Not for my sake particularly, but for future references to major shifts in time and for the fact we don't have the luxury of chapter seperation giving a perfect excuse to jump time periods.
La filosofía (The philosophy): If there's one thing that the prompt definitely had given you, it's definitely the graveyard scene and the stereotypical Eastern-Central-Southern European stereotypes to play around with. (Not to say that @dirge actually used such, just allowed the possibility to form in any given prompt; especially the negative stereotypes against women who act out of line.) Upon such, I love the fact that you played up on the black magic part ("Vade retro Satanas!") and went vampiric on the ending. Much like some a Castlevania / Belmonte situation we got on going here, just without Count Dracula fucking up the World - yet. Also the employment of technology of that time is used beautifully at the end, especially when you used that to shoehorn in your motherland. c:
