I just found this and so sad that you won't be carrying it on. You write so well and are spot on with characters. With you the best.

I'm making a return to Mass Effect, and found your fic. I loved it. You're an incredible writer. I wish I could flesh out this universe the way you can. I understand why you stopped; I felt so much pain after finishing me3 too. Even now, I can't play through that ending. I know you've got different projects now, and this fic is 7 years old. But still, I am sad that it ended in pain and mourning for you and I can't help but hope that you'll write more. I know I can't ask that of you, but I do want to say thank you for writing this, thank you for sharing it, and if you ever offer a writing class, sign me up.

Sooooo... you made me cry. I am so, ugh, furious. And disappointed, and sad, and frustrated, and just ugh! I was in love with this fic until the last chapter, and the note. I can't even communicate how I feel.
The ending of the Mass Effect series is WHY we need awesome, well told stories such as this. We need these amazing ways to finish the story of our relationships with the characters. This was so well started, only to be willfully cast aside.
If I never read another fanfic halfway through, just after I really start to emotionally invest, only to be abandoned, it will be too soon.

I'm devastated... i just found yr stories and spent the last 4 days reading them at every little snippet of time that i cld find and found out and i find out that u're not going to finish the ME 3 installment!
Frm ur fanfic account i can pretty much see that u are 100% certain that u are not gonna come back to finish this piece of fanfic. I blame EA/Bioware for taking so long to release the Citadel DLC becos maybe, just maybe, it would have inspired you enough to want to finish Shepard's story.
But one can hope right?
Maybe someday after you finish your original work, you would feel inspired enough to finish? I'm keeping my fingers crossed. And eventhough chances are low im just gonna add myself to your follow list! ;-)
Love your work!

Well it's time to bid a sad but fond farewell to a story that has entertained me no end for several months now, as much as I'd love for you to continue this story if your heart isn't in it then it would be a pale shadow of it's current excellence.
I checked out your gametourists post with your ME3 ending/story synopsis and I have to say that your ideas add a much needed boost to the complexity of the game's ending, plus it adds a lot more character involvement in the final stages (something that was so awesome in the collector base mission in ME2 yet was sadly absent in ME3).
Anyway, thank you once again for such a truly enjoyable read and I wish you well with your original fiction writing.

Awww I'm really sad to hear that you're quitting. I was really, really dissapointed with how the game ended and to be honest that's what lead me to fanfiction. I wish you were able to push through and finish this, but I really understand how if something isn't enjoyable anymore there is no point in trudging on. based on your notes (it was really great of you to provide them) it looks as if your finale would have been awesome. If you change your mind I'll definitely be reading.

I enjoyed this chapter...sort of. Mostly I was bittersweet. Yay for the update but I'm seriously gutted that this amazing story will never be finished. I love this series. Mass Effect fanfiction can so often be really cheesy and horrible and this one just was not like that at all. It's made me laugh and cry and hurt and I'm really sad that it is ending this way.
I understand rea life commitments can make writing hard but seriously I would have held out for this story because it was just so amazingly well written, wonderfully planned out and a joy to read. I really hope this is not the end of this story and maybe in a few years I'll get an email in my inbox telling me chapter 13 has arrived.
All the best with your original fiction a d thanks for sharing one of my all time favorite fan fics I've ever read.

I'm so sad to hear that you won't be continuing your story! If you ever feel like picking it up again, feel free! Thanks so much for your hard work!

No. No. I refuse to let you go out on a Dear John to us, though I suppose one part of my soul does appreciate that you actually let us know you're stopping rather than letting us speculate on whether such an amazing piece of fiction had been abandoned. I've enjoyed every single chapter of all of your fics. I really wanted to see you make ME3 better, because you took so many risks in your fiction all the while making it beyond compelling to read. The relationships between characters felt so damn real, and the tension just flew off the page.
I understand, really, about ME3 being disappointing. I think I blue screened for a few months, not to mention the mourning I did immediately after (complete with ugly crying jags). I am begging that if you're not willing to complete this fic, maybe do more snippets? Heck, these two interactions with Shepard and Kaidan are beyond wonderful, though no resolution on the VI leaves me wishing for more. Just do snapshots of your favorite moments, or at least the romance? I dunno, I know that this is a Hail Mary plea, but I feel it needs to be made.
Anyways, godspeed in your original writing endeavors. I'll continue to look for you.

I wont lie, sometimes waiting for an update on this story was the *only* reason I logged into my email half the time. That being said, I also understand the 'depressing vibe' part. I will continually check now and then to see if you picked up this story again. I have really enjoyed all 3-4 of them. Heres hoping one day you can finish it.

i can understand becoming disillusioned by that abomination of an ending i simply wish to say i would have loved to see your ending of it and to see this fanfiction written to its end, but alas it shall not be, if that is the case i wish you luck in your future endevors as you are, in my opinion, an excellent writer

Aaaaaah...'twas sad news when i clicked on the latest chapter on Ragnarok. I am so sorry the game's ending left you "disillusioned"...is that the right expression? it certainly does for me. Loss of spirit for anything concerning ME3...yep, it does me that, and sadly you too. Truly unfortunate methinks, for your works i held in great regards.
i fully understand. Deep down, all of us healed the wound by saying, "It's just a game", so yeah, it's just a game. Yet with your works, it became a marvelous game for fan fiction lovers. Over the course of reading your FF, marvelous works all, i found the spirit to replay the game and found myself enjoying the moments thinking what could have been, thinking of the parts and conversations Sagequeen has created in this digital universe where many of us immerse ourselves for hours days weeks on end, and it was truly joyful for an escapist like me, i thank you for that.
Alas, for every beginning, there is the end. The ME3 moments have passed, and slowly, the chapters will dwindle, updates slower, writers drying up, and so will the others. It couldn't live up to the hype, ME3, couldn't be the legend comparable to even Dragon Age Origin, let alone the old schools where you can become gods in Baldur Gates 2. It was very good, it was never great.
Nevertheless, Ragnarok, while it last, it was an engrossing experience. Kyrie shall be remembered, and i will certainly be one of those that treasure (and archive) your works. Maybe I'll continue the story in my own mindscape where the hunger for a complete story never dies, and whenever i click ME3 on my desktop i will remember Sagequeen and Kyrie with a smile.
Don't be disheartened with ME3 anymore, because nothing last forever and for every endings, no matter how bad, there will be new beginnings. there will be new games to play, new saga to thread upon, new romance to sigh at, new endings to debate. Life goes on.
Whatever you do from here, to quote a japanese drama, "keep the sun in your heart".
Adios Sagequeen, thank you for your hard works and may your creativity last forever. Stories come and go, but fanfiction writers like you are very rare.

I am so heartbroken that you have chosen not to finish this story. Isn't the beauty of fanfiction that you can remake a story to how you want it to be? That being said, I respect your decision as an author though I don't like it. You've provided me many hours of entertainment with these stories so thank you. Who knows, maybe you will inspire me to write my own fanfiction on Kaidan and Shep? Someday when grad school has stopped taking over my life.
Good luck with your original fiction!
