Damn, I have no idea...can't find it anywhere online either...will have to re-read to find it...

Anybody else?

I'll admit, I don't know the answer to this myself. That's why I asked. It would be shameful if I didn't even know my chosen mother's name! So the answer could be: she was never named, though I'd expect some proof of that.

[Avatar]

I was wondering (if she'd ever been named).

I think I feel an MN reread coming up...

--A

[IrrationalSanity]

I don't think she was.

[Avatar]

Well, we'll have to wait for Cord Hurn's re-read to be sure.

Finally, I've gotten far enough with my re-read to answer this. I've just read past the part where Terisa has been given the tour of Houseldon by Minick, and then Terisa goes back to the Domne's house and briefly discusses Minick and his wife with Quiss.

I feel confident in now stating: the name of Minick's wife is never given in the Mordant's Need story.

Alright.

Your question.

[Cord Hurn]

Very good! My question: What is Reverend Thatcher's first name?

[wayfriend]

Ghisteslwchlohm

[Cord Hurn]

No, that's not it!

(Unlike the case with Minick's wife, Reverend Thatcher's first name IS given in the story!)

[Avatar]

Archibald?

--A

[Cord Hurn]

Not Archibald.

[Cord Hurn]

(Though I admit that there's something about the name, "Archibald", that makes it sound kind of ecclesiastical. Maybe it's because it shares the same first syllable with the word, "archbishop".)

[Avatar]

Wilbur?

--A

[Cord Hurn]

Not Wilbur, but I hope that doesn't discourage you! "Wilbur Thatcher" sounds like a good fictional name, doesn't it?

[Avatar]

I'm trying to avoid looking it up.

Reginald?

--A

[Cord Hurn]

I'm trying to avoid looking it up.

This I can understand. And I'm trying to avoid giving hints. I'm bound to have my resolution crumble and give them out sooner or later.

Reginald?

--A

Reverend Reginald Thatcher? It sounds believable. But Rev. Thatcher isn't a "Reggie", sorry.

All right. Thank you, Cord Hurn.

[Avatar]

Haha, we can do this all day...

Edmund?

(Ok, I'm pretty sure it's not Edmund...)
