Furthermore, with as Tain loses his grip on the indigenous powers of the Falcon Kingdom, Jaine stands to gain much of what he loses.  Nobles that the King has terrorized into supporting his war can now redirect their resources to defend against the draconid hordes, etc.  Essentially, if Tain falls, they're back to looking for a King/Queen, and you have those in spades!    It's certainly possible.  You might be able to use your burgeoning deal with the Bluestar to learn how they can be destroyed, and then destroy them yourselves...but you'd probably have to be a little sneaky about it.   Dangerous, but it makes a cool scene in my head.  It would let you check on the status of Igosha, as well as whatever other Spirit Blades he may already have.  I'm not sure where the above-mentioned schism is strongest, but would a communal trip north save the circle?  Just remember, it also might end with all of you becoming mindless undead thralls.</blockquote>
