Interesting trivia: The condition Baru suffers from in the final chapter appears to be based on a real case, described in the "Eyes Right!" chapter of Oliver Sack's classic book "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat". A woman suffered brain damage, which caused her to lose all understanding of the concept of "left". She would only eat what was on the right side of her plate, and didn't understand people when they told her that there was more food on the other side.

Yes, I also picked up on that straight away, having recently read the Sacks book and thus having it fresh in my memory.

Good job, General Battuta, write more stuff and I will read it.
