John Spartan and Janice have the World Wide Building covered, as you said... and anyone stupid enough to try and hit Tomodachi (or anywhere else on that planet) with (at least one of) the freaking Norns there is... just asking for whatever they get, really. The line about a great swell of pity just doesn't quite cover it. :)
(I could be wrong in my placement of Aunt Bell's home, honestly, but I'm at least reasonably sure I'm not. Two weeks of the flu, brain not operating at optimal RPM, etc.)
The only real fly in the ointment here is DSM on Jeraddo and their 'visiting professor' problem, which I suspect we're about to see come to fruition one way or the other.

You'll see this on the re-read, but Ms. Wong will be accompanying the Avatar and the Anti-Comet taskforce as an embedded reporter.

Keep in mind that they have a very tiny babby right now. :) They're building a home, but they've got more than a few places around town, as it were. Once Annabel's a little older, spending more time in Cephiro, Asgard, or New Avalon gets a lot easier. Even when you can move around magically, they still have a lot of stuff that has to come with them. :)

That's one of the reasons why the White Lotus is so nervous about Korra going afield - nobody knows what would happen if something major went down while she was out of town. Or, for that matter, if anything happened to her.

Yes, but I was asking if that had happened yet. Apparently not.

Why did I feel like I was watching an episode of "Everybody Loves Corwin" ?

Well, sure, not everybody, there's always Akio and Clarissa, but that still leaves a lot of the universe that loves him.

I tried a quick scan to find the quote but couldn't lock in on it. I was however heartily amused at Utena admitting her wife might just be one of the 10 most ruthless beings in the galaxy (the bit about Utena always trying to do good, but not necessarily all that sure about Anthy).

Just before Corwin dozes off, while they're cuddling on the futon after getting Garnet back, he expresses his amazement at her handling of certain matters, and she quotes back the old Animals song "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" song, which he has quoted to her in the past: "I'm just a soul whose intentions are good." (And then follows it up with, "Anthy, I'm not so sure about sometimes.")

WTF Nall?
That Highlander thing that happens with dragons? I wonder if Nax somehow sabotaged himself to screw with whoever managed to kill him? And the Ancient Masters burned it out of Nall without him even realizing what was going on?

Loved it! Great work all!
Something struck me though, is Among Honest Hearts the first full movement to not be released in .txt? I like it, and I imagine it gives you a lot more freedom with regards to -emphasis-, but it's kind of weird not seeing the old font!

First full part of a Symphony/OOTR series, yeah, I think it is. I converted An Avatar in New Avalon, which is of similar length, after the fact to see if it could be done, and there have been several compilations (A Fire to be Lighted and Desolation Angel) re-released under the stylesheet too, but this is the first major story not to have a plain-text release at all.

I think it is easier to read in the formatted form vs. the plain text.
