Questions:
1. Balashov-he ingested wild mushrooms to so he would continue to have visions while confessing to Omar the horse and I would ask-did you submit to the act of castration and join the sect as an honorable solution to your cowardice in battle? Do you on this day believe that sex in the realm of marriage is the cause of evil deeds in the world?
2. Mutz-why do you spy on the castrate sect during their religious ceremony? Why did you not send your own telegraph to Prague to verify that the Legion was to remain in Siberia? Why did you save Matula during the attack on the unarmed soliders at the depot?
3. Anna-why did you go to Yazyk after you received the news that your husband had become a castrate? Why do you continue to ask your pre-teen son to assist you with your bath?
4. Samarin-Did you become a revolutionary to develop your relationship with Katya or were you already a member of a revolutionary group? Did you feel any guilt after you butchered your comrade so you could eat?
5. Alyosha-why don't you tell your mother that you do not want to help her with her bath? It makes you feel uncomfortable.
6. Matula-why have you not found Mutz guilty of treason? It is obvious he undermines your authority. Sorry more than one but could not help it. Anne r

Again, Anne, you've asked some great ones!
Questions:
1. Samarin-Why did you return Alyosha after he was wounded?
2. Balashov-Why didn't you just return to Anna after you deserted your post? Didn't you realize the affect your actions would have on your wife/child?
3. Mutz-Why didn't you organize a revolt against Matula sooner, or lead as many men as possible back to Prague without Matula?

Herestoyou-yours are good also-I wonder how Mr. Meek would answer them?
