Time Frame and Characters

[starthorn.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! Thanks for the story... After my initial read last night, it seems clear that the events in this book are coincident with Val Con's visit back to Vandar to clean up the DOI teams on the ground there (I forget the name of the story). Is that right? Also, are the Bedel the descendants of the group that Liad dea'Syl brought onto the bridge of the Quick Passage and asked transport from Cantra yos'Phelium? I wonder if the luthia has a dream of that time...

Thanks again, I enjoyed it very much...

Possibly, though I think those were mostly the precursors to the dramliz. What ship is being alluded to in the story I don't know. I found myself wondering if they had anything to do with the creation of Bechimo. They seem to be fairly good on the tech side after all.
