That's what brought me to believe that She existed - probably in a quite different state - before Minnie was cast down. And consuming Minnie changed her into the beginning of what She is today.dlbpharmd wrote:That is correct. Confusing, isn't it?But I also seem to recall, somewhere late in the book, that Diassomer Mininderain is mentioned as one of SHE's victims.
But what was She in the very beginning? And ... whoa! Minnie is a third eternal being! Another of Foul's stature there on Earth! I wonder if Foul was responsible for feeding Minnie to She to begin with. If *I* were a cast-out god, the first thing I'd take it out on would be the similarly cast-out girlfriend of my Enemy. I think it took a while for Foul to come to the Land, but perhaps She didn't start out under Mount Thunder. Covenant did say that She had a hand in the formation of the merewives. And She is made up of too many women to possibly account for lost travelers to a virtually unreachable place under a mountain. She may have gone there in hiding or to sulk in peace. Or another force in the world may have banished her to there.
