Post by **Skyweir** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 5:02 am

How old are Joyces girls? In order of seniority?

Post by **Avatar** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 6:11 am

Gods...no idea at all.

Aren't Nyle and Elega the same age? They were in a semi relationship.

Not quite - Elega was betrothed to Gereden, but wouldn't have him. She said "Nyle is more to my taste", and Nyle was trying to work up courage to propose, but AFAIK, they never actually had a "relationship".

I believe the birth order was
Elega the eldest,
Torrent, the middle
and Myste, the youngest.

That's the order alright, but their ages...always thought Elega was about the same age as Gerarden, they played together as children.

No idea how old he is though. 28ish?

Figured Myste was probably around 16 or so, and Torrent about 20?

No idea.

I don't think actual ages were ever mentioned, but there might be enough hints dropped in the story to figure it out with enough work. However, Elega is if memory serves, a year older than Gereden.

I never thought the daughters had that many years between them, and I am pretty sure that Myste is an adult woman, so I'd guess the core team is in their 20's, and Artagel may even be pushing the low 30s.

There was a discussion about Terisa and Geraden's age a while ago. I think Elega is around 26 and Myste 17-19. Joyce and Madin were apart during his various military campaigns. When in Mordant's history were each of the three princesses conceived?

Hahaha

Youre all going well .. maybe focus on approximating ages and seniority

Yes Elega and Geraden were about the same age .. and yes Elega is Joyse and Madins first born.

So this means that Sanity has answered your question correctly, then?

Post by **Skyweir** » Sat Jul 07, 2018 7:58 am

YES, YES, YES

Thank the gods, the old and the new

apologies for .. well .. everything

IS. all yours

Post by **IrrationalSanity** » Fri Jul 13, 2018 4:56 pm

OK...

For what kind of woman did Elega believe Geraden would make a good husband?

Post by **shadowbinding shoe** » Sat Jul 14, 2018 8:30 am

A mousy girl that wants lots of children, ie the antithesis of Feminism

Post by **Skyweir** » Sat Jul 14, 2018 9:03 am

poor Geraden .. pigeon holed for mediocrity

I'm going to have to give it to you, Shoe, though I was kinda hoping for something closer to the actual quote, as it paints quite a vivid picture.

Post by **IrrationalSanity** » Thu Jul 26, 2018 3:06 am

P.S. In case I wasn't clear enough - it is your turn...

Post by **shadowbinding shoe** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 3:06 pm

Oops, been away for awhile reading new books.

Who were the little monsters that Geraden futilely threatened?

"Come back here you little monsters!" he roared. "I'm going to [...] until your heads fall off!"

Also, what was the exact quote, IS?

Post by **IrrationalSanity** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 9:55 pm

I know the answer to this one, but I want to give someone else a chance.

As for the exact quote, I don't have the books right in front of me, it was something to the effect of "a {can't remember the word} girl, with her mind in her belly, and a penchant for child rearing."
