anyway?

In keeping with the musical theme, it could be their 'repertoire' (but that
sounds more like a collection of their stories/ballads/song cycles).

Yeah, it does sound more like the collection of the stuff they said than the
places they said them.

Hey, how about calling them PODs? (stands for "Places Of Distribution". Sounds
sorta cute... "Shiri's POD", "Jeff's POD"...

  ~ sounds more like space theme than castle, tho!

   at it's simplest, they could be called (for example) the "Realms of Jeff
Johnston".  this list would only be seen in the Balladeers section, anyway,
and the realms on the map would still appear as individual places.

  eventually, we can use music inspired terms more effectively for
categorizing storylines.

later ~ craig~

  lego fans! you give 'em a toy to play with, and they start sorting and
categorizing right away, just so it will be easier to mix the pieces later!

LOL! I know, but it's so cute - like realms in a POD! (Oh, I forgot - realms
isn't pronounced like peas, but like pet. Bummer... :)

Johnston".  this list would only be seen in the Balladeers section, anyway,

Yep, that'd prolly be a better idea - I was just tryin' to be poetic, with
little success ;-)

eventually, we can use music inspired terms more effectively for
categorizing storylines.

Like you mentioned - duets, trios, etc, right?

lego fans! you give 'em a toy to play with, and they start sorting and
categorizing right away, just so it will be easier to mix the pieces later!
