     I have just finished reading MZB's latest Darkover novel,
 "Thendara House", and I have an observation and a question.

 Observation:
     Darkovan women seem to spend an aweful lot of time
  crying.

 Question:
     There is a very mysterious group of psychics mentioned in
 the book called the "Dark Sisterhood".  Have they appeared in
 previous books?  I've read 9 Darkover books (or so) and I've
 only encountered the "Sisterhood of Avaara" (or something like
 that).  Are these "healers" the above psychics.
     Their role in TH seems very omnipresent and forboding.
