>From Chapter the Seventy-Second: "It was on a Skyday in the early spring toward the end of the first year of Zerika's Reign..." that Khaavren received a message from Temma urging him to attend the party at Castle Black on the following day. >From Chapter the Seventy-Fourth "It was on a Skyday in the winter of the first year of the reign of the Empress Zerika the Fourth that Morrolan opened the doors of Castle Black." Also, Khaavren and Zerika received somewhat different invitations. K's is described as "an invitation written on silk in gold lettering" whereas Z's is "...on thin black paper with gold letterin1g..." Have fun, Alexx and Mark. Casey Rousseau
