Isn't the definition of species that 2 individuals can mate and produce fertile offspring? If that is the case then there is no reason any Haruchai/anyone else mating wouldn't result in children though these children won't necessarily be able to reproduce themselves and may have other problems as we...

There is actually a thread in this forum which discusses he origins of Ravers and it reminded me that they originated in the spoiled plains kind of area and were forbidden from the upper land by the colossus, until men had cut away so much the colossus was weakened. With regards to the acid/burning,...

In the Raver-Demondim theory the timeline is the biggest stumbling block. Were the Demondim really created that early, particularly if it means that the Viles were already hating themselves at the time? Did Atiaran not say that the Viles were a 'high and lofty race' and then mentioned a timeline su...

Perhaps we will find out more about the Ravers in the Last Chrons. Obviously we are one down after Nom did his thing, but the other 2 must be lurking about somewhere. I am sure though that in the 1st chrons we found out from Mhoram that the brothers had wandered within reach of Foul and it was he wh...

I think the Ravers were just people who happened to hate, perhaps because of something that happened to them before. This was thousands and thousands of years ago so they may have come from a primitive people who were very violent anyway and these were the worst of them. When they wandered into Foul...

Funnily enough I was wondering if they were 'human' as well. They would probably think they were a more advanced form of human.

Interesting. It could be that the Creator himself isn't exactly 'good'. Foul himself has been known to 'help out' when it serves his ends.

The ruse of asking for Covenants help may have just been Foul taking a chance that he could get him to use enough power to destroy the Arch. It wasn't his main plan as he didn't really think it would work but it was worth a try. Kind of like a sub plan to his Plan A. If they had been able to persuad...

I think with Foul it is more of a superiority complex. He thinks he is better than everyone else. Also, his sole goal is to free himself from the Arch so everyone on the Earth is insignificant to him. He would do anything to attain his goal. His Ravers are under the impression they would be free wit...

lol it's true though! If he hadn't been so intent on messing up the Creator's little hobby he would've been free to roam the universe instead of being trapped.

I bet if he did ever get free and the Creator made another world he would probably mess with that as well. Some people never learn.

Agreed, although Foul's nature may be something which is found naturally his presence his physical self do not belong within the Arch. It is like an overload of evil. Outside the Arch I assume he and the Creator were fairly evenly matched but with him inside the Arch the balance has been disturbed, ...

As was mentioned in another thread (probably a few) it seems to be generally accepted that good cannot exist without evil, everything has an equal and opposite reaction. This would then support what you said Wayfriend, abuot not being able to destroy Despite. Of course then you could argue, Why is t...

Stop picking holes in my arguments :cry: hee hee I wonder if Linden may have seen the vision because it was a concept she recognised or if she did go into Foul's subconscious he may have misdirected her. Or the Worm may be 'real' and the theories of creation are all correct in some way and form part...

I suppose the Arch of time has to be the more accurate story as it has been mentioned by the Creator, Foul and Covenant himself. As for the Elohim, perhaps their story isn't quite true, or just because according to Pitchwife they are hard to argue with, does not mean they are right. The Elohim have ...

It seems to me that, before the Descration, different kinds of lore were dispersed more thooughout the people. It was probably true that a particular person chose a certain specialty, but it probably wasn't true that villiages were divided along those lines. That makes sense to me. So although ther...

Lord Tamarantha also told Covenant that because Kevin was a Seer he created his wards but because he was not a prophet he could not forsee the outcome of his actions either in the Ritual or in creating the Wards. The Earth has no morals. It contains forces of growth and destruction, both are a part ...

Yes you are right there! I confused myself (as usual) lol.But there is another conflict then. In the Arch/Rainbow myth wasn't the world created before the Stars got through the hole to explore it and were then sealed in? so in the Worm myth the world came after the stars' misfortune and in the rainb...

One of them being that the world was in existence before the Worm devoured the stars!

Could it not just be that the Worm was created by the Creator as the destruction part and placed within the Arch and the myriads of consumed stars were those which were trapped within the Arch already? I have probably completely skipped over loads of reasons why this cannot be true lol.

I would personally think that the Land isn't just a figment of someone's imagination (well, other than SRD's lol) because of the fact that the Creator interfered in the 'real world'. As did Foul as it goes. Perhaps Covenant and Linden as well as the Land people will find some way more lasting than T...
