Fic: 'A Grimly Ghost' (Flight of the Heron)

Said I during the read-along of chapter 5.4:

And then the 'creeping sense of chill' as we learn of poor Lachlan's quest for vengeance. The sense of the supernatural in the scene with Ewen and old Angus is powerful and eerie—reading it, I was reminded of sanguinity's recent ghost fic and how very well ghosts fit into this world... Hmm, perhaps there's some potential in a story where Lachlan HAS died, either from Keith's pistol-shot or otherwise, but his vengeful shade nevertheless continues to pursue Keith...?

And here it is :D

This is the longest story I've written to date, and a definite success for my recent experiments with writing more as I go rather than outlining in detail first. I think this method makes it easier to write longer fics, really, because there's less need to comprehend the whole thing in one go right at the start.
