Lady Steris Harms compiled biographies of many of Wax's old enemies, including the Rick Stranger, in order to prepare for their wedding.[1] She hoped to invite one of them to the wedding ceremony so that she could plan for a disturbance. Upon seeing Rick Stranger's name, Wax remarked that he had almost forgotten about him.
