Like many I would first travel the lengths and breadths of the Land .. particularly ensuring I spend time in Andelain ... the Celebration of Spring sounds like a good time to be there .. Then after I have seen the Land .. visited stonedowns and woodhelvins I would enter the Loresraat and study to be...

From memory .. Kasreyn states in TOT somewhere that gold is found in Brathairealm .. and no where else in the earth .. I will find the chapter he tells the questors this and return .. but not white gold .. though as I said earlier .. a man of his talent who works with gold and placing an impurity in...

actually that is a very interesting slant .. if there existed a theme through the chrons based on TC's degree of culpability and his stand with respect to other's free will .. just how would such a premise work? Sure his rape of Lena could be seen as a conflict between guilt and innocence <TC's act ...

I am not sure that anyone suggests they .. in their appearance .. would see Haruchai/Bloodguard .. looking like Klingons .. but moreso have similar persona's .. I guess it is just a way of finding a similar solid .. yet quaintly dispassionate .. honour driven peoples to compare them to. I dont see t...

'twas Brinn who battled the Guardian of the One Tree .. known to the Haruchai as Ak-Haru Kenaustin Ardenol .. I dont recall Mhoram actually sending TC on the quest of the One Tree .. but cetainly planting the suggestion squarely in his mind. I think you are right .. TC had to go on the quest for the...

Yes you raise some excellent and intriguing points yourself .. but there was no real failure .. only in TC's limited perception of the facts. He viewed it as failure because he believed he did not secure the wood of the one tree to fashion a new staff of Lore. We .. the observers .. know that that w...

*bows to superior intellect* well Amy .. you would most definitely know .. so far be it for me to question a medical practitioner ..

Absolutely correct!! The vow of the blood guard was terminated in TIW when Amok lead Elena to the 7th Ward .. You people came to the Land, and you swore a Vow to protect Kevin. You swore to preserve him or at least give your lives for him and the Lords and Revelstone until Time itself came to an end...
