At one point Keira says "Vlad might well feel it necessary to go and do something dangerous, and if I let him get himself killed, I'd never be able to explain it to Cawti". Now the problem I have with that sentence is that if Keira is talking/writing to Cawti wouldn't she have just said "I'd never be able to explain it to you"? So is she talking to someone else? Maybe even Vlad's little metal box, although I doubt that. Or is that just a slip of Steven's pen? ===== Doc www.toubib.us __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!
