Going into Tth, what do I need to remember from MOI?

Starting Tth, I'm struggling to remember how some characters ended up.

The Bridgeburners retired to a bar in Darujhistan. Of those characters, I remember Picker being the leader of them somewhat, Blend was mysterious, Antsy was easily agitated, but I don't remember Bluepearl at all. Gruntle was Mortal Sword of Treach. Stonny was raped by a Seerdomin. I assume that Kruppe is still Kruppe. Looking at the cast of characters, I see Pust and Cutter and crew are coming into the story, but I'm not sure why. Was it that Cutter wanted to return home perhaps?

Unsure what happened to Silverfox at the end of MOI after her T'lan were taken before she could place them in her dreamworld. The Andii stayed in Coral.

Who/what am I forgetting?

Cutter, pust and spite head there after Bonehunters. Rallick Nom was left in the Azath to recover, Murrilio is a womaniser, Duiker is there too as well as Mallet, both are suffering from the events in their past. Silverfox and he Tlan left for Assail at the end of MOI so they dont show up as far as I remember. Did you read Return of the Crimson Guard? If not then in between House of Chains and Toll the Hounds Traveller has left Drift Avaii to continue his quest for vengeance against Hood. Thats about it of the top of my head without giving spoilery hints.

Yep, I read Return of the Crimson Guard. The other big take away from RotCG was ROTCG Spoiler or does that not come up at the beginning of the book?

Very unrelated, but the way the ROTCG spoiler you mentioned were handled in the series was kind of bad in my opinion. If you just read the main series and get to DoD(?) you suddenly hear about it, almost in passing. I mean, wtf? Stuff like that seems important, and should be covered in the main books.

But what do I know, maybe I'm just old fashioned.

Not in a massive way but it has implications for sure!

Rake and all the Tiste Andii have settled in Coral and there is permanent night there.

Remenber Crokus Younghand? In Gardens of the moon he snuck into that rich girls house, Chalice. They reunite. Toll the Hounds is really good. Erikson becomes a little more philosophical and the writing is strong. You will have no trouble picking up the threads once you are into it.
