This seems very accurate to me--a good read! I hope you'll come join us in the Mordant's Need Group Read "Casting the Augury" forum, Lord Slaytan, I'll bet your ideas will really add to the discussion!
I understand what you mean. I just don't see it as a betrayal in the sense that she knew Therisa would be put in extreme jeopardy by her telling Eremis what she knew. But then again, I really should read the story again, even though I just read them again for the third time recently. I didn’t have a clue that, for once, I would have an opportunity to discuss them. I really don’t see Saddith’s behavior at this point to be wicked at all; rather it’s just Saddith being Saddith. She saw an opportunity to make one of the most powerful and enigmatic men in Mordant happy, so she did. It is still a betrayal, but not a ‘wicked’ one in my eyes.
C’mon. Don’t make me despise Saddith. Please.
On a lighter note: Thank you for the welcome! I am positive that this will be a site that I visit daily, and respond to on a regular basis. The movie forum where I’m a moderator is full of immaturity (“I’d bang that ass! U sux…I am 1337!”), often alienating its adult members. I find it
very refreshing to find a board that has members who are really passionate about what they speak about, and treat each other with a common civility. That said, I’d be more than happy to discuss anything concerning any of Mr. D’s work, as well as a lot of other author’s work.
BTW Myste: I really enjoy your wit. Fun stuff to read indeed.
Oh yeah...you guys can call me Slay.
