Regarding bold>>>> Take a different look at the meanings of "fatal" & "revenant".AcousticJames wrote:Well, since the name of the forum says to expect spoilers, I'm going to talk freely here.
I'm fairly convinced that the person that Linden sees is NOT Thomas Covenant. Remember that the second book will be called "Fatal Revenant", and that the word revenant means ghost (for the most part), so it all kinda makes sense. What or who he is I don't know and can't even begin to speculate who he is. At first I thought it might be a Raver that dug up his body, but Linden would feel that coming, I would think, and would be too easy/obvious.
I'm more excited about the fact that Jeremiah is back. That's what Linden wanted above all else; her son. Well, now she has him back, so now what? 'Tis definitely going to be interesting.

FATAL
1 obsolete : FATED
2 : FATEFUL <a fatal hour>
3 a : of or relating to fate b : resembling fate in proceeding according to a fixed sequence c : determining one's fate
4 a : causing death b : bringing ruin
REVENANT
Etymology: French, from present participle of revenir to return
: one that returns after death or a long absence
- revenant adjective
What if the subject referenced is Jeremiah and not Covenant? A fated meeting after a long absence? { coming to "right" mind is a return of sorts both from the "dead" and absence} To me, the question is: How does Jeremiah fit into the Last Chron of TC?
I think it is definately TC who also is a fatal revenant. Also, technically, Linden, Joan, Roger, & possibly Jeremiah are all dead. What is fated about these "revenants"?
