 Aquilla was REALLY spelt with double L on purpose.
 Aquilla Lestrange first appeared in my Polish only fanfiction, titled „Tanderdalu Saga". She was created in 2008.
 The whole fic contains multiple references to Machiavelli's works, as well as Bible and other literature. You may make a "treasure hunt" and look for them. Hint: under the last chapter I thanked all the authors whose work I… let's say, got inspired with.
 Many scenes in the story were written a few times before I considered them acceptable.
 I didn't stick only to the book or movie to write this; I used both sources.
 Translations are like women: either beautiful or faithful, never both. I tried to make this translation rather beautiful than faithful, and many scenes were altered during the translation. As I'm both the author and the translator, I guess I had a right to do so.
 The original story was written on scraps of paper, usually the other sides of homeworks and short tests, mostly when I was bored at school.
 I lost some of the scraps with pieces of story on them, so I filled the gaps with similar plot.
 Original story contained Lucius taking Aquilla to Azkaban when she was two.
 The Carrows were included into the story because they seem a bit neglected by writers.
 I guess I gave enough hints about this: Amycus Carrow is a widower. His wife died while giving birth to the twins.
 There are elements of autobiography in the story: the way Aquilla bathed at the Tonks (my big brother did so), the lullaby which Ted sung, the way Narcissa got to know that Aquilla could read, Aquilla being left-handed and a few more.
 I have already written an alternate ending to the sequel to "All the sweetness of the world". Not having written the real ending.
 In a D&D Alignment Chart, Aquilla would be Chaotic Neutral… for now.
 Aquilla is quite a gatherer. She has her treasures and won't let anyone take them away from her. However, unlike Tom Marvolo Riddle, she keeps treasures, not trophies.
