It's quite ironic that the characters are dealing with their past returning to haunt them, whereas as a reader, I'm wondering when the hammer is going to fall in terms of canon events...
I've always been curious about the way that newly incepted hara would cut themselves off from their past lives so entirely. With the exception of Pell and his family, we never really learn anything about their previous, human lives, and what baggage they bring, so it's interesting to see you exploring that area - in particular the conflict between the ideals of the new society, and the way things actually *are*!
As I remember, Ashmael refers to his relationship with Vaysh as "...heresy" in "Enchantments", so there was obviously some tension there. I'll be interested to see how things develop (..and what happens to Jaffa. I'm sure a very...er... spiritual experience awaits him! ;-)
