Hey Elanhil,
Looks pretty good to me...just a couple of things I noticed about it. Your syntax is a bit off. I realize you were copying from my Newbie's Essence thread but later on in the thread Sir Emeth corrects my explanation.

Anyways, instead of writing:

{Aspect
[Qualifier
(Characteristic
<metaphor>
)]}

It is correct instead to write this:

Aspect {
Qualifier [
Characteristic (
<metaphor>
)]}

Other than that...It looks great! :)

Oh, Yes. XD.. I even reminded myself of that before I sat down to do the essence. I just forgot. I'll correct that. :)

EDIT: Ok, All better!! :D

Hey! Warmth of a blanket is my metaphor, get your own! Oops! Just remembered that I never actually posted that essence fragment. *Blushes* Never mind, you're good :)
And, uh, Eruheran, could you not have just told him face to face? :P

It is easier to type. Especially because he was downstairs and I was upstairs and I am lazy. :P :D I've used 'warmth of a blanket' myself a few times. :P

I used Mexican blanket under Characteristic warmth, which is a bit different from your element, so I guess it's all good in the hood.

Blankets are great metaphors...we can all share. :D

(BTW, Merashath, I meant to type you were downstairs and I was upstairs and I am lazy. I just mis-typed. :D
