A Creator's Club. That's awesome! How do I join?

I do remember the Creator (don't recall when) mentioning something to TC about creation and creators (plural) and the fickleness of Creators. Perhaps he was alluding to the Club

*bump*

Feeling nostalgic today, I've been laying here reading some old threads. This one was fun, so I thought I would bump it up. Can't believe I've been here for six years.

I really miss Sky...

The Land wasn't real. It 'became' real as a necessity with the 2nd Chrons.

The Land became real the moment Donaldson wrote from someone other than Covenant's point of view. (I think it was Mhoram's.)

I sort of agree with Earthfiend. I've just re-read the first Chronicles, and it really DID give the strong impression that the Land has a genuine life of its own when SRD follows Mhoram's thoughts in TPTP for a fair while before the (failed) attempt to summon Covenant is even made. And Mhoram's arc remains essentially separate for the reast of TPTP.

Thanks, Loremaster! I feel rich. (*Runs off to store*)

I've been re-reading the Chronicles, oh, ten years or so after the first time. I'm finding that there's' a lot more I can appreciate now (not that they weren't awesome then) and lo, when I went looking for Chronicle-related stuff on the Web, Google did summon me here.

It wouldn't matter, any perspective in the Land is within Thomas' head, therefore he can experience any character's perspective as they are all parts of his psyche or imagination, his dilemmas and struggles.

Of course the Land isn't real, it's a book =P

if its not real...then how the hell am i going to get to Andelain when i die????????

I figure Andelain is just as real as Heaven..if i have to choose between the two, im going to Andelain

assuming i get to go to a nice place. I may end up cleaning the breeding dens of Mount Thunder.
