@Miaubol: Indeed! Though now I look at it I like how Burkhard's about as scruffy post Dragon as she is!
And yeah, needed an extra page to work as intended; I'm certain I've got the right flow now and should have the final pages together inside of this month!
@DT: Interesting point that I'll probably touch on after the imminent conclusion! I envisioned this as a standalone story in many respects but my thoughts on Burkhard have evolved a great deal throughout...
