Working on that, no worries! ... yet.

[@Xistina] your CS so far is a great read! Originally I'd intended for no one to have really interacted with the Ruse, but I'm compelled to make an exception for the Madakam. It only makes sense that the Ruse have different cultures among themselves just as people do, and one of them could definitely be the role you've provided here. Thanks for the ideas!
