Although, now I'm interested to see whether or not Soukra will be a rival love interest.

See, now I'm wondering all sorts of things.

Maybe Sinbad is the bad guy.

Maybe the Viking is really an albino from Ghana.

Maybe Poochie is a RC robot controlled by the cook.

Maybe the Bald Cook isn't really bald, he just shaves his head 'cause it's comfy.

Maybe the Chinaman is really a girl -- a princess disguised as a warrior to escape her own arranged marriage, and when she meets Alina, Alina will fall in love with the Chinaman because, hey, pointy hair is hotter than a pointed beard any day, and then we'll have the whole Shakespearean mistaken identity thing.
