Loved this part, too! Realistically, I doubt the elders would change the law after such a short time of having changes thrust upon them. However, also realistically, Clark would never be able to fly, so...I think it worked out great! smile

I'd happy Ching and Zara have their happy ending now, but I'm eager to get back to Lois and Clark now.

And really, forty-three people dying in the entire course of a civil war is probably the most bloodless civil war ever.

One little thing I forgot to mention...the chain Lois gave him to hang her ring on is silver in the show. I don't know if you changed it for a reason, but I thought I'd mention it. Hope it helps.

Again, looking forward to the last part--I've really enjoyed this story!
