Tull, Shull, and Vale?

BTW, the answer to the last question was "Whane" and "Lal" - remember the Ramen that were destroyed by the Colossus of the Fall during the battle with dead Elena?

Hey, no fair keeping us hanging here... were we right?

To kill time waiting for that answer, I have another question for y'all...

What is the name of the steering wheel of the Giantship Starfare's Gem?

DING DING DING DING DING!!! You win drew!!! It *was* Triock!!!

What's with ME knowing the names? YOU answered the question correctly!!! LOL...

The reason I know so many names is because I have read the books once or twice... <laughing>

OK... On to the next question:

Anundivan Yajna is what?

That it is a fancy name for "bone - sculpting" by the Ramen. Elena was able to do this and made a bust of TC from Myrha's bones after she died in the quest for the seventh ward. (TC did not really see it was him until he got back to his own world).

Hey hey, MrKABC you seem to be running this forum at the minute, so i'll take a little of the load of your back with a question of my own. Oh and i've been gone for a few days so i give an easy one don't berate me.

Okay, one point for the name of the assault that "fleshharrower" made upon Troy's army at doriendor corishev, and another point if you can tell me what the creatures that came out of the "assault" resembled (any sort of description or two characteristics of these creatures will also do).

There now, i tried to make that as difficult as possible. :wink: :D

We never got an answer for the name of Lord Hyrim's Bloodguard - someone with a book handy, what was the answer?

Okay folks, the answer to Lord Hyrim's Bloodgaurd was .............................................. wait for it......................................., Sill.

Oh and by the way, i cheated for this answer. But i had no idea what it was and i don't think we would have gotten an answer so i had a peak over the weekend. Sorry, my bad. (he he)

Oh crap i forgot to confirm the answer to my own question. You are indeed correct Man of Westerness. I would add howver that the beasts apparently resembled "kresh" with wings and razor sharp teeth. But you get the points.

So far the questions have seemed to focus on names, but this is no fault of our own because these are the easiest things to remember or ask questions about. Can anyone think of any other Topics of which we could ask questions? Such as when things occurred or in which book or chapter did such and such happen!!

A little variety is good for anything.

Maybe we could make the questions solely about Lord Foul for a few tries or about the history of the Bloodgaurd? All only suggestions of course, anyone else?

Ahhhhh... great suggestions Kevin Son of Ireland! I'll take a stab at it - let me know if I am working in the right direction, or feel free to jump in with a question of your own! :)

Name the reason why Lord Foul cannot use the Staff of Law directly.
