Quellvisks (did I spell that right?)

For some reason, they remind me a lot of the "warder" that Foamfollower and Covenant had to bypass to secure access to Foul's abode.

I went back and compared the descriptions. They're both as tall as giants and both have six limbs (though AATE suggest arms specifically) There also seems to be a similarity in numerous eyes/heads.

At any rate, I found it pretty interesting that through their bones, using the marrrowmeld technique, Jeremiah could free his mind. It brings up some questionable and startling connections. Foul, Elena, Ranyhyn (I sometimes forget the pajamas he wears bear horses) and that mysterious fellow that introduced Foul to the quellvisks... His name escapes me, but apparently he also partook in the big committee of the dead to help sort this mess out. I wonder what his deal is.

I'll have to check that out! Foul could re-construct dead things with the Illearth stone, so you may just be on to something.
