Writing adventures

Guess what? My matriarchy-with-magic-water story now has a plot! Well, two plots, actually, and I'm hoping I can bring them around to being interrelated. There's some detective type stuff going on, but there's an overarching plot that might best be summed up as "lol ur succession!" I'm trying to decide on names for the main character's mentor and for the members of equivalent to the royal family (and also decide which ones really are trying to kill each other and which ones are just misunderstood).
