Eeee, thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far, and OMG someone else who's addicted to Echo Bazaar! That game is going to eat my soul at some point, I swear. :'D

Ha ha, the thing about the rebellion against the Masters will take a few more chapters to come together yet, but that's where things are heading. ^^ I'm glad everyone still seems in character though - that's mostly what I was worried about writing them in this sort of setting. Thanks again for the feedback!
