Why This Must Be Read: From the Ashes seems, at first, to be a rather typical story – Teal'c comes across a sick Daniel, asleep in the commissary, and shooes him off to the infirmary. But when the rest of SG-1 gate to a planet and meet up with the natives, it takes a recovery team to bring them back… and that's when disaster really strikes.

Sam Walker gives us superb Teal'c characterization with his anguish over a truly tragic accident and his determination to make it right. Ancient and obscure Jaffa rituals are such a fun plot device, after all! And this one takes a particularly fascinating turn, as Teal'c joins Daniel on a journey through his life's experiences… until the final moving confrontation on the "earth sea."

With Bra'tac in usual fine form, teamy goodness, and some great support from Janet and Hammond, this Teal'c and Daniel friendship fic is one that you'll remember for a long time.
