Raya-san - who helped with editing and lots of encouragment. Skuld-san - who told me that the table Raiel wears is a 'kotatsu', Hamel's nick for Raiel - "Chinchin Kamen" or "Masked Peepee" and for giving me the accurate translation from her Japanese manga of the last paragraph on pg.133. Sizer-san (sizer@crowsnest.aeug.org) - whose great info page at http://crowsnest.aeug.org/~sizer/ helped with clarifying names/places (e.g. Cittern + Kokyuu + The Northern Capital). Arigato minna!
