Unless there is a stricture against creating an alloy. We hear them talk about steel, and other pure metals, but I do not recall any metals formed by being an alloy even being mentioned. Such as bronze which is an amalgam of two metals. Brass and :?: maybe tin? I can't remember.

That's right. And one of the first things that military intelligence (an oxymoron if I ever heard of one :lol: ) wants to learn about is the location and strength of your enemy. So LF was definitely interested in where TC and the white gold and LA were. Although I am not so certain that he was reall...

Yes, our Creator allows our 'despiser' ie. satan to wander through our world, but would he allow an alien evil to wander through our world? I don't think so. Our Creator knows that there are enough 'banes' in our world without the introduction of a foreign influence that would tip the scales in any ...

I don't think so. Maybe I'm way off base with this, but I believe that any healer that came to the land would have had the health sense. But I think that LA was chosen to come to the land because she was twisted from the get go. And that was what LF wanted. He felt that if she was twisted enough, it...

You bring up a couple of good points yourself, but there is one I have to shoot down. The creator of SRDs' land cannot under any circumstances involve himself to help His children in the land. If He did, he would have broken the AoT. I think that it was LF who summoned TC, but the Creator came over ...

I was asking if they were one and the same. The parallels have been numerous and I was wondering if anybody else had noticed them as well as I had. I really don't think that SRD intentionally wanted all of these parallels to creep in so that there could even be a discussion along this thread. But it...

Hello everybody. This is a thank you to all who are involved with this forum. Since I logged on the first time, I have not once had any jerks come out with a 'poison pen' note about my views. Instead I have received acceptance as a peer. I have been involved with a couple of small debates over one t...

I don't believe so, but I will have to check it out. But I happen to agree that It would be nice if SRD 'checks out' more of the continent in the 3rd chrons. Plus bring in some 'new' people from the outer edges of the land. Maybe even a couple of original stonedowners and woodhelvenin communities th...

I think that it comes down to what each persons' individual 'id' is. Hile Troy was a war type person. He had worked for years in a think tank developing strategies for war and how to use the weapons of war. Linden on the other hand, was a healer. She was trained as a doctor, and was the only person ...

I just hope that it does not twist him as it did with Kevin. Then again it just might be that Kevin was twisted anyway. He let his despair take him over. I can't see anybody in their right mind invoking the ritual of descration. Even though he thought that it would undo Foul. It might have weakened ...

This is true. But there is also the view that our world was created for us. I don't believe that our God intended for him to have the ability to have the personal contact that it seems that he is capable of. I am thinking of when satan was tempting Jesus. At that point, it appears as if satan has an...

As to your first question, look in Isaiah 46:9. I am God, and there is no other. I am God, and there is none like me. And as for the inhabitants of the land, I do not see them as pawns. Rather i see them as jailers. Sure, LF is bound in his own personal prison, bound within the AOT. But in every pri...

Well, he now has it in death. He is stuck in the land, probably as no more than a specter in Andelain. So he will never be able to have a true 'rest'. So is that not still being there? He will still find himself revered. And unless LF twists things around again, he is going to be probably put on a p...

In some ways, I think that TC will be involved in a greater way than he has been to date. But I can only imagine one way that Foul would turn out to be a goodie. And that is if he is to be finally killed. Not just wounded, but to actually kill him. 8) And I think that might be what SRD is going to t...

I forgot to log in again! :oops: That last posting was mine. Another point is that while you are in prison, it does take a whole lot more energy and time to accomplish anything on the outside. It is possible that the land is nothing more than an alternate dimension, and the creator is a brother of o...

Ah, but there is a difference. The difference is that at the end of the 1st chrons. he knows that the land is real. He won't admit it even to himself out loud, but he as much as admitted it to Mhoram and the high council when they were trying to summon him the last time. He begged them to end the su...

Is The creator Our Creator, and Lord Foul Our Satan?

This is a question that I have pondered and would like some input on. After all, how could the creator save TC's life in our world, and how could LF have the ability to use his influence in our world? The creator did not seem to have any problems moving into our world, or to move TC back with ease, ...
