Back in the first chronicles someone (maybe Tamarantha or Mhoram) was talking about white gold and said that Berek knew of the white gold but had never seen it and something about Kevin desiring it (though of course he would get the story from Berek etc) and the Sandgorgons groaning in their Doom at...

I am actually re-reading the part of TWL where they escape Revelstone and the Grim is sent after them. I didn't consciously make the connection but I did find myself getting confused as to whether this was the part where Vain's arm and leg got turned to wood!

Re: Mhoram's Overlooked Advice

It occurred to me, that both Covenant and Linden as well as the readers have (probably) universally overlooked one half of the advice Mhoram gave to Covenant in TWL. And that's while the particular quote is one of the most repeated ones in the entire series. It boots nothing to avoid his snares, fo...

I started my re-read of TWL the other day and came across the song Sunder sang regarding A-jeroth and it mentions the 'Master's mate' Diassomer Mininderain (the Master being the Creator) - could this be the Mahdoubt? The song says something about how she fell prey to the Despiser's charms and betray...

I have a terrible memory but I am in the middle of a re-read so I will check it out. I think in the 'soothtell' section of TWL it explains it.

As you say though, could be that Foul getting out :twisted:

Well I can be pretty dense about some things so ;) I didn't think that his hiding on the fringes of Earthpower had actually corrupted it though. I just thought it sustained him as it had done the first time when he was diminished by the Ritual of Desecration. There is something that rings a vagueish...

I dont know if that is true although in the case of elohim such as Chant did the other elohim not say there was a 'shadow' upon him or something like that? I am also sure Linden wondered if the Despiser was in fact Chant's 'shadow'.

I'm not sure if this has already been said but couldnt it be that the Elohim also dont want Findail to meet his 'wurd' because it means that yet more of them could be appointed to other tasks? If Linden can heal the Land without Findail being joined with Vain doesn't it mean there is hope for all th...

I meant similar to! I have just read back through this thread and realised other people have quoted the description of the healer from TPTP (which is who the Mahdoubt reminded me of). She also had a robe given to her by the people of The Land in thanks for her healing help.

It did seem a little silly really that noone figured it out. I mean after all Linden said on many occasions how perfect Vain was structurally and they all knew Findail was pure Earthpower; then when Vain's arm turned to wood she said it was just dead, when she closed her eyes she couldn't even sense...

Geraden is a character in the Mordant's Need books. He is very clumsy and inept as well as sunny natured and optimistic.

don't get me wrong, i think he loved the Land, but like the way i love my dog, i don't think my dog is my equal. he has this condescending paternal attitude towards the people of the Land. I agree. I really didn't like Troy's attitude to the Land and its people. he also seemed to act like he 'owned...

He was placed there by Berek and as far as we know was never replaced until the Quest went there. He was visible as an old man in tattered robes to everyone until Brinn went to fight him then he was invisible til Brinn beat him up. The 'stars' were meant to be the creator's children or something wer...

The Creator cast Foul down, which is plausible as it may be the Arch is a one way door only so things can go in but not come back out again. It is then said the Creator could not put his hand upon the earth to destroy Foul as it would rend the Arch, which again is plausible as it doesn't mean it is ...

The whole point is that the creator could destroy the Arch and therefore the Earth but he wants to preserve it and therefore has to work through tools such as TC. the problem is though that the Creator wanted a perfect creation but eh obviously didn't understand the need for balance. As he had his o...
