I've been hinting at it for a while. But I just now realised that this could seem like an attempt on my end to gain a fourth Noble--but rest assured that's not what I'm trying to do. It's basically supposed to be an introduction of extra complexity into the plot--what if there was another person meant to be there, but they didn't make it, and their love is left to carry on in it without her? And what happens when they come back?

I have a good response, but I'll wait until later.
