It might surprise you to know that I'm not actually the person responsible for the Spanish translation of this story. I've realized that although I'm proficient in both languages I'm terrible at translating fics from one to another, particularly my own, so I'm not even trying that anymore. The Spanish translators who contacted me didn't even know that I'm Spanish myself, since although I mention somewhere on the warnings for this story that I'm not a native English speaker I never disclosed what my mother tongue actually was. They were quite surprised when I responded to them in their language...
I don't know why exactly Vietnamese either, and I hadn't realized that they have their own thriving snarry community over there until I was contacted. I think it's wonderful to find out that this ship is doing so well outside my own niche of English-Spanish fandom.
In answer to your question The Voice Under All Silences has a total of 43 chapters and a word count of 235.214 words. Trust me when I say that I'm not trying to either push you into translating it or discouraging you from doing so. But... It's very long. Very... heavy going, story-line wise, and by all accounts extremely difficult to translate.
Take care for now, my friend, and I hope that you continue to enjoy the chapters ahead of you.
