Here's a rough timeline (from memory): - Sethra decides to get things started, sends Jr and Kytraan to Adrilankha as escorts for Zivra and Piro respectively. She also sends messages to Khaavren and Z's foster parents with instructions. - A week(?) later, the messages arrive. - Last meeting of Porker Pokers. - Zivra leaves the next morning. - The day after, Kytraan arrives. - Kytraan and Piro leave. (next day?) - Zivra meets StY on the road (couple days after leaving). - Several days later, Zivra arrives at Dzur Mtn. and is told who she is. This is the first time Zivra could ask for Piro as a companion. - Several more days later Piro arrives. --KG
