I don't remember how many time have I watched AOS and how much I hoped the story can be changed, but it isn't. It breaks my heart. I hate season 2, I hate Bryn and Sinbad. I hate producer and the way they let Maeve disappear. When I were young i really thought Maeve is something of Sinbad, but when I become a bit older I found out that Maeve is not anything of him, if she is something he must looking for her or feels painful when he loses her but he doesn’t, he has a lot of women in his life and Maeve is just one of them, that's all. Why didn't producer let Maeve die, Sinbad feels painful, Bryn comes to heal his heart, Sinbad keeps his promise to Maeve to defeat Rumina, after that he will marry Bryn and has a happy life? It will be fair for three of them. But if i were producer i would never let this happen with Maeve.
I'm sorry, my English is very bad.

Hello banmaixanh. First of all: don't you worry about your English skills. Most of us aren't native speakers and personally I think you're doing just fine. So don't feel shy about that one. Second: Aw, great to see you online. We always are happy to see new members post and participate. Now as for S2: yeah, I guess we all know what you mean. And you're right: S2 Sinbad is pretty much a Don Juan. He has a woman in almost every port, and doesn't seem to care much about the promise he gave to Maeve; nor does he seem to care much about either Maeve or Bryn (whom he more or less made think he cares for them). I mean, sure this is a more realistic view on things as sailors sure enough had many love interests in different ports, but problem is that we got to know a totally different person in Season 1. There he was a caring man who obviously was all in love with only one woman. Personally Season 1 always made me think of soulmates, so seeing S2 Sinbad act left me devastated back when I watched those eps for the very first time. And only in the very last ep do we see that he's not fotgotten about Maeve completely... but what is that compared to a season full of new women and without any promise kept (when I think about it now... his line "we'll either defeat her or die trying" was somewhat a lie then wasn't it? Because he didn't even think of searching for Rumi, or Maeve for that matter). Oh, but before I go on ranting... yeah, the producers pretty much screwed up there. And the idea you voice, yeah, it would have made more sense and would at least have been fair to all three of them.

banmaixanhFirst of all, nice to see you active I exactly know what you mean. I have watched the show like thousands times already and probably I will watch it like thousands more and I still wonder what they had to drug to write such a stupid plot like "The Sacrifice". Like a few days ago, I was talking to my friend, our Kahlan, that they had so many alternative versions for Maeve's departure and they chose the worst one. I hate Bryn and Sinbad, either. For me it's sick what they have done there. If they want to build some kind of strong frendship, there is place for love. Even Rowling knows this. But despite this fact, Capatin Casanova from S2 is fine on his own way. It all about that you need to get used to Season 2 which is something totally different from S1.

hi. I was upset about something is not important. Actually, I really like the idea that Meave dies, but how she dies? I'm still thinking. I wonder how much fun we would have if Maeve came back. Image how Dermort tries to prevent Sinbad comes near Maeve because of the way he acted through season 2 (I meant like a protective brother tries to protect his sister from the man, who always ready to go to the bed with any women he meets.) or how Maeve acts when she sees Sinbad look at girls. Sinbad look at a girl: - she is so attractive. Maeve treads down his feet. Sinbad: - Ahh!!! Maeve: - Sorry, you are on my way.

Nice to see you here!
Well, I kind-of agree with you about Maeve/Sinbad/Bryn, but to the producers...S1 didn't happen. They wanted to start over with S2 and trying to make it S1.
*Shrugs*

banmaixanh: Hehe, actually I never really thought about how Dermott would act the moment Maeve returned. I mean, I of course tried to imagine how happy he would be and things like that, but you're right: when considering how Sinbad acted during S2 Derm could well try to keep Maeve from getting emotionally involved with the sailor again. >_> Ahaha, and lol for your mental image about Maeve treating the sailor. Now THAT I can well imagine! ;D Hum, that idea again was never of my liking, and I guess I would have stopped watching the show right away had Maeve really died in the Sacrifice. And even though Sinbad was a real ideot (concering the way he treated women), I'm glad that the show left us with a plot where we, as the watchers and fans, can at least think up an ending that pleases us. But I guess that's just a very personal point of view. @firouz: Right indeed. Though, what it was exactly that made them think the fans wouldn't mind, I will never understand.

But I guess that's just a very personal point of view. Oh no, it is just only in this case. Producers give us the mess, and I really don't know how to solve it. You know one man and two women. It is not easy to solve their problem, so I think one of them should die, and Maeve is my choice. Maeve is the person, who always giving more than receive, so I think about possibilities that Maeve sacrifices her life to protect Sinbad and Dermort, or she dies after she defeats Rumina. I like the idea Mave dies after she defeats Rumina. Maeve spent all of her life to learn magic to defeat Rumina. I want her to finish her quest before she dies. And I am still angry with Sinbad. I want him to be punished, lose Maeve forever is the best punishment for him. Another reason makes me want Maeve to die is the way Sinbad forgot her during s2. I believe it hurts her so bad. I don't want to see Maeve live with broken heart. Death will release her from her painful life. I have watched a lot of films doesn't have happy ending. I think I somehow accustom myself to the death of main character. It makes me sad but it doesn't turn the show into hell. The problem is if producers know how to make it better? Of course, I also have some other ideas for this problem. EX: Bryn and Doubar, Maeve and Sinbad. I think Bryn and Doubar can be a cute couple.

I love that song. It reminds me of Maeve when I hear it. How painful Maeve feels when she is still waiting, and Sibbad might be never come. www.nhaccuatui.com/nghe?M=i2UfSR9KMcwww.youtube.com/watch?v=tpJjRSnmgfI&feature=relatedThe moment - composed by Truong Quy Hai The only lingering leaf is still here at the end of autumn. And I am still waiting for you in pain and hopelessness. Tonight is the last night, tomorrow that leaf will fall. Tonight is the last night, please come to me. Tomorrow, autumn will go and wordless tears will dry. And the autumn goes without happiness and sadness. I let the coldness surround my heart after those years. Only tonight, please come to me. Tonight is the last night, please come to me. If tomorrow you come you will see one leaf lay on the ground, and the winter will be here forever. Please come back to me, by my side, come back to the peaceful past, my arms and warm lips are still waiting. Please come back to me, my love. What did you promise? Do you still remember? Please come here to me, the winter is coming close. The last night in my life, please come to me. The only lingering leaf is still here at the end of autumn. And I am still waiting for you in pain and hopelessness. ******************* Forgive me for my bad English skill.

Hum, in that context, yes I do see your point, banmaixanh. And as sad as her death would have been, I also see the freedom it would have somewhat brought her - especially if she had died, defeating Rumina and thus keeping the promise she had given her brother. Also, yes, it would be the worst punishment of all for Sinbad - and in some way he does even deserve that, I agree. And the bitter-sweet resolve it would have brought the fans is as hurtful, as it would have brought peace, too. It could have been one last act of love - on both sides, ending what has become so painful for many (fans). A bitter-sweet ending indeed, banmaixanh. Of course, I also have some other ideas for this problem. EX: Bryn and Doubar, Maeve and Sinbad. I think Bryn and Doubar can be a cute couple. OMG, you have no idea! I LOVE that couple. Sinbad/Maeve and Doubar/Bryn are my favo pairing; originally only because I preferred Bryn finding someone on her own, but later also because I began to understand that, if one only took a closer look at them, they already had a great chemistry in the show which had merely needed some development. And last but not least as for the song you gave us: it really is MOST beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!!! The music itself is so melodic, so beautiful; and the lyrics are just stunning. And really fitting. And once again, don't worry about your English. That one's just fine.

@doubar I know. I have read your "silent joy", and I really love it. It's so sweet. I also love Kriss's fics, and all of your videos and fanarts. I wish I could do something like that. Talk about our couples . I have my painful plan for Sinbad and Maeve. I think my ideas can make my story become stressful (I'm an evil person, right?). Because of that I need a happy couple to reduce the stress and pain I will create. Bryn and Doubar are my best choice.

banmaixanh: Awww, you did? Aw, thank you so much. I really am so happy to hear you like it. As for fanarts and fanvids: well, we all started somewhen and most of us had no idea as to what to do and how to do it. We just tried. xD But thank you a whole lot for the compliment. It really means a lot! And I'm sure you'd be doing wonderful things as well! Ooh, and that sounds like you were working on a fanfiction. That's most awesome! Say, would that be in English then, because I'm sure many here would love to read it! Well, I would in any case. And, well, yes, it might make the story more stressful, but then again your ideas are good I think, and sensible (P.S.: hehe, no, not evil... though... maybe just a tiny little bit. *kidding* ). Well, not meaning to talk you into something, but you'd DEFINITELY have a faithful reader there if you chose to publish it. ;D ;D ;D Honestly though, do what you think is right. I've seen most poeple pair up Bryn with Dermott or Firouz and indeed these are sweet couples, too. And, no matter what you decide for, I'm sure your story will be a totally interesting one to read.

banmaixanhYou read my fics and you like it!? Aww, I love you! I will tell you something: a few years ago I was surffing around the old AoS pages, reading old fics and it was like somehow my dream to make things like that. Thanks to Distant Lands and people who believed in me, I did it. Firstly, I started to post my first fanarts then I made my first video and in final, with our Doubar's help( @doubar: ) I worte my first, own story. I keep my finger crossed for you to make it, too and you will always get my help if you need something

Yea, go ahead and write your fic! You'll have avid readers here! Kriss and Doubar are my most devout readers to my own, recent fic ( you two!), and I'll read it too! Just in case you want to read it, I'm under AOS as Anime Princess. According to Kriss and Doubar, I have done an excellent job.

Right indeed, banmaixanh. Many started off doing fanworks and vids here on DL. And if you ever have a question concerning programs for videomaking or anything, do not hesitate to ask. We're happy to help and to encourage. @firouz & Kriss: Aw, you both are most welcome. It's a great pleasure to support others and see them evolve. You have indeed! And I can't wait for the sequel and next story. ;D
