Odd omission in chapter 13 I found.

okay, I was rechecking the last chapter and realized a couple of critical paragraphs I'd written concerning Tarrin and the GoG's little talk got mysteriously axed.
The basic gist of this missing material explained why some of the odd things happened around Tarrin concerning Sorcery, such as the latent ability of Janette and his daughters, and explained that being a mi'shara was more about their one gift, it also allowed them to subtly alter certain aspects of reality to bend to their will, even without them knowing. The general point of that was that Tarrin himself had been subconsciously responsible for Janette being a Sorcerer. He'd been subconsciously afraid of seeing Janette age and die, so the part of him that makes him a mi'shara changed her. He didn't know he did it, but he did. And the same happened to the twins, he instilled into them Sorcery, because Tara was always so grumpy and unhappy...and even without knowing, Tarrin subconsciously knew what to do to make Tara happy. The happiness of a father's children is very important to him, after all.
I'll fix it when I get around to it, but thought it was important enough to bring up, since those are some pretty important plot points in the past.
