What was it about traveling through the Care of Armigite (sp?) that led to Terisa understanding his personality?

It was filled with soft earth and romantic orchards and vineyards?

I'm going to give this one to Avatar. I was going for exposed and vulnerable, but he had the gist, and I might have the exact description wrong myself (especially since he has read it far more recently...)

Well, reading your post you're right...vulnerable and exposed it was. :D

I'll take it though.

Sticking to the theme, how did the defenders of Orison know that the Armigite had cut a deal with the Alends?

The defenders recognized the numerous Armigate catapults used by the Alend army

Got it in one. :D

(Although, come to think of it, he didn't have to have sold them...the Alends could have seized them...)

That was too easy obviously. :D

Your turn...

Since you've just finished reading the books, can you name the substance Eremis used when refilling the water reservoirs to to complement his appearance?

Actually, that shouldn't have been a flat "no". He just needs to be more specific... (Yes, I know the answer, but I'm not in a position to monitor for answers to a new question at the moment... :) )

Very good! :mrgreen:

In A Man Rides Through, when Orison's army camps for the night after one day of marching towards Esmerel, Terisa Morgan learns to use a flat mirror showing a part of the Fen of Cadwal to translate suppies for Orison's army.
What is the name of the Master who made that mirror? :confused:

There's no shame in looking it up, Avatar, especially when it helps keep the game going!
Well done! You're in charge again! :thumbsup:

(Personally, I've always thought "Vixix" sounded like a noise I'd make if I were trying to cough and sneeze at the same time!)

I believe he was asked that by Artagel, and if I remember correctly his response was "I dream of Death!" and a rather severe increase in his attack intensity...
