It's been a real treat watching you rack up that word count.
Late last night I finished Scout's Progress, and when I went to check the timeline in the Unibus (I'm reading the e-book versions. I've heard of an omnibus, but what is an unibus?) I was extremely distressed to see that there were no more stories listed before the death of Aelliana. (extremely. Distressed.) I don't know which made me more upset, that Daav only has her for 4 years, or that there wasn't a story, where the two of them got to be happy together post Aelliana being abused.
It wasn't until this morning that I remembered about Mouse & Dragon and realized that this could be nothing other than the story I want. THANK YOU! (Although still unhappy with only 4 years for Daav & Aelliana.)
FYI, I love the Tree more and more, every time I read about it. I think the Tree and Jela are my two most favorite characters in the whole series.
When Baen asked us for titles for their electronic compilations, we weren't feeling particularly creative and the best we could come up with was the Deeply Unexciting "Liaden Universe(R) Omnibus Number One" and "Ditto Number Two".
Neither one of us was satisfied with that and we stared at the page and one of us said -- "It's a Liaden Unibus of course" -- scrambling "omnibus" and "universe".
We have very strange minds and even stranger senses of humor, I fear.
(Although still unhappy with only 4 years for Daav & Aelliana.)
...yeah, I kind of do feel like a Bad God for that.

Good Job!
