I'm pondering whether or how to change the new Gale's goals, as the original comes from a distinctly anti-Danor point of view as well as being anti-technology. I'll likely highlight the second more, but can work the first in as well. The new background goes like this;Gale, rather than escaping from Danor, is 'rescued' towards the tail end of the 3rd Yerasol War by the PC's father, a (then) young naval officer with his first command. He's more benign than her former Danoran 'family', but after bearing a very unexpected, for a high elf, child, comes to see that she's traded one slavery for another and flees. She leaves her infant daughter behind under the belief that she'll have a better life that way, etc. After that, she isolates herself for a time, doing a bit of self discovery and coming to a personal realisation about the evils of the 'Danoran way', and then begins to do her Gale thing as per standard.I'm quite looking forward to the PC meeting Gale and realising that she is her mother. She's very anti high-elf (and dislikes elves in general), having the belief that she was abandoned as a child. I expect it won't go well, but we'll see.Other than that, just wrapping up Book 1; the PC has become involved in a relationship with Lya Jierre- where both intend to try to covertly use the other for confidential information. It will make the stakes in future books as Lya fully outs herself as an enemy, all the larger, I think.Other than that, we're doing some brief vignettes to introduce the new 'contacts around Flint' being made in the intervening time and may do a short side mission as well (not sure on what yet.) After that, on to book 2.Cheers,-RI.</blockquote>
