I have a question I haven't seen here before: Now that Linden has gotten the Staff of Law from the past, does that remove the Staff from the timeline, and there's only one Staff in the present? My thinking is, Covenant told her to get the Staff, she decided to pull it out of a "safe point"...

Yes, but after that TC started 'seeing' the Land as everyone else did. Up till then his Land-sight wasn't evident. It's like once he used the Ring he was in tune with the Land. As far as the Storm being the trigger, that's pretty thin. He has always needed contact before. I go more with number 1 He...

Kevin's Dirt...I think the Elohim put it there, and I think it's called Kevin's Dirt because you could see it clearly from Kevin's Watch, or because it blinds people to the truth of things like Kevin was blinded to the truth about Foul. I agree, Lord Foul even says as much: Also I had no hand in yo...

I think we will see the krill again - especially since the Demondim have re-emerged as a threat to the Land. The "beyond all hope of recovery" statement was probably meant to indicate in WGW that Loric's blade had served its purpose and was about to pass from the story. (If it was ME in A...

I meant destroyed as a power. By the time of Runes it has probably crumbled to dust.

From WGW, chapter 14: Stabbed deep in to the charred wood beyond any hope of removal was the krill . Only the flames that licked the stump made it visible; the light of its gem was gone. Don't hold your breath for seeing the Krill in action again, the above quote is prettry specific. I would even a...

But the fact is, it did not dry up. It is still there in WGW, and is the same as when Elena first took Covenant to see it in TIW. Exactly. Its like alanthia and Andelain. They are are examples of Law under seige. If Covenant was never summoned (Say, he decided that he did not owe his X that much an...

In that case how is it that only LINDEN is restricted in the wild magic that she uses and not Joan? Joan is exerting wild magic as well, creating the caesures - why would Lord Foul permit that? Findail said, "should the Worm of the World's End be roused finding the Despiser without the white r...

Hey Sylak, I can't help but notice that you are blowing through your resources, man! What are you running on a 1GB of RAM system that would consume 77% of your resources??? Do you have a lot of spyware? It depends also on how the metric is calculated, IIRC modern windows OS will use big chunks of m...

However, does that excuse his responsibility to the fans? He created his world after all! I would say that he has no responability to us at all. I pay for the entertainment of his work, if he ceases to entertain me, I stop paying. As you said he created his world, he can make up any rules he likes ...

I have no recollection whatsoever a green moon. I stand corrected. But still - at that point, Foul had the Illearth Stone, and since green is the Illearth colour... Yes, the stone is the source of the color of the moon in TPTP, but it was the SoL in the dead hands of Elena that changed the moon, an...

Since both the Law of Death and the Law of Life had been broken, why not call up High Lord Kevin or somebody like that, give him the Staff, and try to fix things in that manner? OR... at the very least, have the called up High Lord instruct the new user on the lore and knowledge of the Staff? Yea, ...

Well just got an answer to the main question of Lindens choice on the GI. I thought that in this long thread we (at least I did) came to the conclusion that SRD had an idea of the time travel rules he wanted to work with, and would ignore or was unaware of the difficult problems introduced for the ...

In fact I thought of another 'time and space issue'. Linden and crew travel to the Lands past about three thousand years. Linden at that time was in 2 places at the same time! She was still in the 'real' world about 1 year after returning from the Land? I think SRD answered this in the GI, have to ...

Although the Fall gives access to every time, I just automatically guessed that they could only be *accessed* from the time in which they existed, but variol son could be right. I had a much cooler explanation all ready, which was that there *was* one Fall that existed thousands of years before the...

No. Linden works out that when she gave Joan the other ring (years before) that was the time when the Caesures started appearing. Years in our time is hundreds of years in the Land, so therefore the Caesures could conceivably be far back for the Ur-Viles to go into one. According to the GI, the fal...

That's like asking what was the Forestals duty? They knew that they had to protecct it from Fouls servants. That's why they took it from Aneles cave. It's what they decided to do with their collective being. Or maybe im not seeing the question? But do you comprehend that we speak of Law? Of sequenc...

Maybe it has something to do with restoring the One Forest in the new Land, or maybe they will all band together to become something more than each of their seperate being. Perhaps they will even help in the fight against Foul? We will have to see, but I don't imagine that SRD will bring back the O...
