The Tor
The Tor had been bleeding inside for days, killing himself with the effort to fill his King's place. He made a dismissive gesture; he may have wanted Terisa and Geraden to go away. Nevertheless they stayed where they were. After a moment, Geraden asked the physician, "How is he?" "As...

The Tor
That "small cloud" or "puff of smoke" is the return of Havelock's friendly creature of Imagery, though the Tor and his immediate companions (Terisa, Geraden, Ribuld, and the Tor's physician) are unaware of its entrance to their Esmerel valley camp. They are under a tent that can ...

The Mordant's Need Trivia Game (Spoilers!!!)
Thank you, IrrationalSanity!
Next question:
What did Eremis see in his flat mirror that made him grip the edges of its frame and say, "Excrement of a pig! That is impossible. You doddering old fool, that is impossible"?

Welcome Visitors & New Members !! - Say Hello in HERE :)
Welcome to the Watch, Helen Blood! I loved reading that you have tuned into so much Donaldson in recent years! I enjoy most all of his work (especially Mordant's Need and the Gap), and like you finished up The Great God's War 's last book The Killing God earlier this year. I considered it satisfying...

The Mordant's Need Trivia Game (Spoilers!!!)
Cool!
I think Geraden stated that he would never tell Quiss about what it was like seeing the ghouls feed and die--now matter how long he lives and how many opportunities he might have to tell her about it!

Terisa is really feeling that a predestined meeting, a prophesied and pivotal moment, is about to happen, and She tells Geraden to quickly get the Tor and Prince Kragen, Master Barsonage overhears that and sends Imagers to get them, and someone calls for Castellan Norge. All the nearby guards feel a...

My recent reread of Mordant's Need (spoilers)
On the current reread, I'm slowly working my way to the climactic parts of the story. I like when Terisa realizes her dream scenario, the augry of the three riders, is about to happen , and she gets the camp to be on defense quickly in case of attack. As she and the Masters finished translating the ...

Great question, Sanity! I recall it involves never telling somebody about what it's like to see the ghouls feed and die.

The Tor
Coming back outside from Esmerel, the Tor, Prince Kragen, Terisa, Geraden, Barsonage, and Norge encounter snowfall so thick that it's hard to see through more than an arm's-length away. Norge suggests to Kragen that they find their encampments immediately. Kragen says he'll string lines through the ...
