Thomas Covenant wakes up in the middle of the street in front of a police car. (I really hope this doesn't happen, but it could.) Because it was all a dream, Linden Avery never existed. (That I wouldn't mind so much.)

But he's already "killed", right?
Is he?

During the reveal under Melenkurion Skyweir, he had bullet holes in his chest.

Pah! It's just a flesh wound. :D

I predict Jeremiah survives. It's my prediction, and I'm sticking with it.

We will discover that Thomas Covenant is both the Creator and The Despiser.

Eric Cartman is the Creator (Screw You Guys, I'm Going Home)

I've a feeling they're going back in time again.

There's no life for any of the characters from 'our' world - they are all dead (well TC, LA and Jeremiah are).. Waitng on confirmation on Roger.. And there was another with them from our world wasn't there?

Actually, screw my first point about Eric Cartman - ASLAN is the Creator! - a true fire lion anyway!

Many heroic heroes deaths.. Maybe the Masters will fuck off back to their own country..

A return of Griffins.

The endings of all Ravers...

I think the Sandgorgons will also end up in a place they can't get out of. Maybe a song by U2.

Lord Foul will turn out to be Osama / George Bush..

But yeah, if Liand doesn't re-educate his people about she Stone lore i'm going to be dissappointed.

i think that lord foul is part of the Creator, when the original story of the Creator was told to Covenant they said something like that "Despite was by him the whole time" (really paraphrasing)

but i don't think the worm is going to destroy everything. think of it this way, the elohim say they are the heart of the earth, they fear the destruction of the earth, so they fear their own destruction (obvious since they are so self-centered). Infelice says at the end of FR that "Now every Elohim will be devoured". so maybe the worm doesn't destroy the earth, but the Elohim, which the Elohim consider the Earth. if the Elohim created the knowledge of the worm (since they know everything) they could have manipulated the knowledge so that everyone beleive the destruction of the earth comes with the rousing of the worm. and if the earth ends when the worm wakes up, why doesn't it all end as soon as the worm wakes at the end of FR.

Well, I've always assumed that the Elohim were the Creator's children referenced in one of the creation tales, or the stars that were devoured by the worm in another creation tale.

- Whatever the method, I see Thomas Covenant and Foul's fates being intertwined for all time and Linden and her son being the instrument of this happening. At the request of Thomas Covenant, Linden and her son use the Wild Magic and the Staff of Law to help turn Thomas Covenant into an eternal prison for Lord Foul so he is no longer a threat to the land. This would make TC happy on so many levels

I also see the Law of Life and the Law of Death being repaired.

I don't think Jeramiah is going back to the real world.

Liand, along with some new characters, will help start a new line of Lords.

Somewhere I read that in the Last Chronicles TC becomes Lord Foul. Well, in a way, he already has...he's trapped forever within the Arch Of Time, a being from outside the Arch, still with (presumably) a ton of power, but who no longer holds the White Gold...and can only escape his prison by getting his hands on the Ring again...
