- the Mahdoubt warns Linden about "a glamour on love" -- an interesting choice of words when compared with how Roger's 'disguise' is also described as a "glamour" (whether at the Earthblood, or by the Harrow later, I don't remember), and she sounds like she speaks from experience, whatever that may have been. She also makes a few other ambiguous comments about her lost youth and beauty.
- we've seen that Kassy has the ability and will to exchange or give away parts of himself, perhaps that would explain the Mahdoubt's eyes. Linden never senses anything like fire in them; just that they're different colors.
- the original story (the way it was told in TOT) may have simply had Kassy involved with a 'normal' mortal woman ... we don't know what Donaldson had in mind when he conceived of the 2nd and 3rd Chrons... if that was a thread he always intended to expand, or if it was just a backstory he'd created which he realized he could mine for the 3rd. But since he invented the Insequent, it would sure make sense for him to tie the threads together.
- along with all that, it's just the kind of thing SRD would do
