This argument is getting old.
If CE is a puppetmaster of Talerium and Tara, then Eston was a puppetmaster of Darka and BoM. The relationships were fairly analogous as far as I could tell.
I'm starting to think that Kerwin's biggest mistake was to think that he was
actually in charge of the Northern Alliance.
