Yea, Jenn, good one. The thought of him and LA not even MENTIONING their underpants, but making a big deal out of a beard, grosses me out. Hey, speaking of the beard, I have a question. It might prompt another thread; I'm not sure what the requirements are. I assume since the beard grew, the other hair did, too. But I don't remember any mention of TC saying he needed a haircut, and when he got back here, how did the change in the Land translate to NO change to his hair length here? They were here for several months, right? Long enough for TC to be a hippie hair-wise. Hmmmm..... any thoughts?
Heard my ears aright? Did not the gaddhi grant me this glaive?

I am surprised the Troy did not teach them how to make guns.

Of course I hope you enjoy them regardless of order but I am one of those folks that feel that a sequential readthrough from first chrons on is the best road. And sincere welcome to KW, messionice!

Covenant should have taken advantage of his wealth and invested in precious metals (like white gold, or even normal gold) to bring along. Mighty talismans of magic for everyone! :D Sure the plot would have become unstable, but Lord Foul would have been much easier ten to one.

If it was ONE thing.
Cherry flavor pez.
No question.

OR

My real answer. SOLAR POWERED electric razor. The man could do some shaving, but it would have taken the Loresraat 50 years to figure out how to power it with Lomilliar, and, of course, they haven't got 50 years.

The one thing I would add here is sunscreen, preferably SPF45 or more, and lip balm. Also, I don't think it's possible to break up these three books as TC didn't return to the real world between them. :screwy:
What about some SunBANE cream? Needs a little more SPF, I'm sure. But it keeps the wiggly worms away.

He had' em. It was his half-hand and white gold ring. :P

I guess I'm relieved to know that the lack of personal hygiene in the Land was not just an issue for me. I mean, they had rivers and stuff, but rarely took advantage. 8O

What "one thing" should he have taken with him? Hm... a girlfriend... an AK-47... a bar of soap and some clean boxers... some common sense... a Kevin's Watch t-shirt... it's too hard to settle on one.
