Well, the thing takes place in present day(albeit a slight bit "forward", if you will).
Requiem is indeed no longer known by his former name. From my perspective, he used it here as an "alias" as a bit of tongue in cheek humor only he
would understand, and because I needed a way to imply it was him without saying it outright. Lynna doesn't know who Uzzano is, and her parents merely think
Requiem doesn't want his name being said aloud, for fear of any spies. This project has nothing to do with Arahkan, to not-really-spoiler.
As to the name, Lynna is something like Positron in that she's an old RPG character revamped for the setting. Originally a spinoff of the appearance of
duplicate Sabers in 2040, Lynna went from Linna's evil twin and recurring villain to something of a devil may care independent who was certainly close to
the Neutral side of the scale, but never gave up her sense of self-entitlement. Making her a spoiled rich brat here was the closest I could get to that
perspective, though this Lynna will probably end up being a little more moral.
And the storytelling method will probably continue in a linear perspective from here. I just got the crazy idea to use Lazarus since I don't actually
*have* Kheldians yet, and it'd be an amusing reference to the fact that, as a character, she doesn't quite exist yet.

waste."
