It's here (http://kotorfanmedia.com/story/caritas-o/when-all-is-said-and-done-chapter-5/), near the bottom.
To the author's credit, I think she still acknowledges that Carth loved Morgana, but...still. (I feel kinda bad, cause this is someone who's read and complimented my stuff. I never know what to do in situations like that; when someone checks out my stuff and then I go to check out their stuff and it's kinda...well...not that great :/)
I noticed, actually, a lot of resentment towards Morgana's existence way back in the Onasi Order in it's original incarnation on the Bioboards. There was an awful lot of resentment that Carth had been married before, which I found so amazingly strange.
Yeah, I don't get this either. Doesn't it make Revan more special if she managed to make Carth fall in love again after the woman he thought was the only one he'd ever love died? It pretty much loses all meaning if he didn't love his wife and Revan was who he was meant to be with, blah blah and so on.
There was once a discussion back on the Bioboards where a lot of women insisted that Revan was a better match for Carth than his wife (who we really know nothing about – except what we make up about her), because both Revan and Carth had bonded over an intense quest in a battle like situation, so Revan could understand Carth in a way that Morgana never could...
...the hell? Most militaristic organizations in the world don't allow women into their ranks, and even the ones that do don't have that many. Therefore, most military men in the world aren't married to women who have "bonded with them through battle". Granted this is different in the Star Wars universe, but...look, we're still all PEOPLE here lol regardless of whether your galaxy consists of the Milky Way or includes planets like Corscant and Kashyyyk and the like. And people don't have to share a profession or bond over life-changing events to fall in love. You need a certain degree of fantasy and suspension of disbelief when dealing with sci fi/fantasy fan fic, but people have got to act realistically too.
Btw: you need to write some Morgana, Rose. I totally want to see your version.
Pshaw. I love yours too much to attempt a pale comparison ;)
