The idea brings me both profound relief and total panic, all at once. :) It might help if I knew what I was going to write next, but I really don't. There are some plot bunnies hopping around my head (and I blame you for one of them!), but nothing has grabbed me and said "write this!" yet. The thought of not having any story to work on is actually a little terrifying...

I am still thinking about your "who is Auron" puzzle. I have a couple of ideas, but I really don't want to just throw guesses at the wall until something sticks. :)
