Direction of the story

First you have Charis closing in which means that unless they remove themselves from the war voluntarily, it will be forced upon them. The second one is that we know that Clyntahn plans to gather those officers and bring them to Zion along With Thirsk. However according to textev, that shouldn't be until the following summer. So the issue of Dohlar's participation in the war should be resolved prior to that, putting both Thirsk and the officers beyond Clintahn's reach.

Come to think of it, the timing of Merlin's visit may have been set by the arrival of new instructions on whats-his-name the Intendant's desk.
