DESCRIPTION
You might remember Thackery here from way back in ch07 of the first book, as the Jet who sat next to Duane at the Bodie meeting. They were casual friends at the time, though Thackery is not a huge fan of Soud and never associated with the Adeliers outside of the Temple.
It's almost seven years later and the Temple of Song is on hard times after their failures down south and increasing pressure from the strengthening Gefendur. Thackery is about out of patience for all of it.
Head's up to the old Soud lady here, Irina, a cameo character belonging to Stephanie! Irina's from an awesome fanfic she wrote, and will pop up from time to time :)
