Well there are really four key issues I want to have resolved at least in part, before they enter a relationship.

1 Nick's disability, not really fixing it .But at least have him accept that it is a part of him and not something to be hated.

2 Vellantha's rage and transformations as well as her psychological distress and alternate self. Have those two find common ground and goals before they try to connect with another person. (Before the full transformation takes place later on.)

3 What caused Nick to be so standoffish from other folks. As it is revealed in the novel he's always been a tad reserved. (Living amongst aliens on Earth would tend to make you feel isolated after all) But he becaomes a lot more so in his 15th Incarnation, especially after a certain calamitous event. (I think there are a few hints in the excepts I've posted as to what that calamity is. But they're out of order from where I posted them to where they tie into the novel timeline so it won't make sense. Whoops.)

4 There is a big mystery surrounding Vellantha's childhood. She can't remember large chunks of it. and what she does remember is vauge and questionable. So that will be a big source of confusion and speculation.

So I want to have a big enough time span to address these issues without bogging the narrative down in meandering plots. I don't know, do you think twenty years is long enough to adress all of that stuff and do it well. Or would it be really fast and sloppy?
