well, i liked the idea that the wizards had to be "married to the land" so to speak, in order to get their full powers. the myths & general world-building i liked.
i guess you're right about the incest being a motivation for both characters later on. it's just that it was such a surprise & seemed to be treated so casually. (but i suppose people in that situation would see it as such)
as for the term "B story" i take it to mean the second story told at the same time as the first. it could be just as important at the "A story" or secondary.
