Ravens (and rooks) are default male in Czech (crows, jackaws, jays and magpies are all female, though). So it did not occur to me and I'm not sure I could switch my thinking that way, used as I am to a male Sallowpad with a male Czech name - as much as I would love to... Just like I have a lot of trouble thinking of Glimfeather and all the Owl Parliament as male. Aw shucks once more. But I'll just go on throwing them in elsewhere. Sallowpad needs a partner, after all, because Ravens work that way. Asta the Dog librarian should logically be one of Methos' allies in Cair Paravel, and I think Bella the Squirrel Monkey will get to play a larger role later on, too - a Golden Age needs an artist (or preferably lots of them)!
