The Locket and The Rosemen Tales are coming along, and I am now smoothing some continuity points. In addition, The Cousins Tales has been making demands on me to pen segments even though it was envisioned to be the fourth book of the series. It may well end up racing ahead of the Dunes Wars prequel. While Wai Yen was originally intended to be the central character, the Elf twins, Arun and Uran are demanding sizable portions of the storyline, and Omar, a reluctant participant in the tale, is starting to tie sections of the plot together.
