I'm sorry to break it to you but the liklihood of an entire arc about *any* of
these stories is miniscule.  That's not what this potential series of DVD
stories is about.  It's an anthology series.  Though I'd love to see Prince
Vintari again.

You've had an entire season and part of Crusade to get to know Lochley and I
think we got at least as much character development for her as we did for
Ivanova in the first year.  More, in my opinion.  That you don't care for
Lochley is obvious but that doesn't mean that you're unfamiliar with her.
