Correct and a good question aswell. I'll have to think about it.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

In the absence of a current question I will pose one:

What is the name of the explosive arrows used by the Warward?

In The Power that Preserves? They are called Gildenlode or lor-liarill.

werent they made from the gildenlode rudders that were supposed to be given to the Giants? I think Lor-Liarill (spelling is wrong I am sure) is correct though. These were made during the siege of revelstone in IEW, I think, not in TPTP...

That is correct, but they were used in TPTP as they were still rudders in TIW, as the Giants hadnt been killed at that point.

They were used to destroy the sheilds protecting the catapults.

There wasnt a seige during TIW, the first seige of revelstone was in TPTP.
