Hello Indagare, I really have to get back to work on my characters, finish the current story I have mostly done. If Thanh and Binh get involved in any way, I'll have to go ahead and decide which curse Binh gets (sometime around 708-709) and what they've been up to since their January 708 arrival. I have some other minor characters thought up that might be useful at least for cameos, I just have to start writing them too.
