When all else fails, cheat. ;)

Okay, who is the last person Terisa talks to before she has "more to drink than she ever had in her life" at the end of Ch. 17?

Damn. Once again, no question prepared, so expect it to be an easy one:

What incapacitated the Tor before the final battle?

I believe that would have been a kick from Gart. That ruptured something, causing internal bleeding.

Ok, maybe mine will be a little harder (or not!)...

What did Myste say to Darsint that made him feel inadequate, prompting him to make his ultimate heroic move?

"It's okay, honey, it happens to everybody sometimes"--in reference to his gun running out of power, and not being able to do anything else to help the battle.

Not even close, Myste. Actually, Racewind wasn't too far off with the "not having to do it" bit. A clue, the answer is WHY he didn't have to do any more. I'm looking for a specific word (in context, of course!). He really dwelled on it.

That's why it's called a guess. :P ;) Uhm, okay, is the word "honor"? "duty?" "Mission Accomplished???"

Keep trying, you'll get it. Remeber: Myste said it, Darsint repeated it.

Next clue:

There's no need to risk your life for this?

im gonna cheat, just give me a sec... (reads AMRT)

"it is not your burden," Myste whispered to him gently. "you have already done more than we could have asked- more than most of us would have believed possible. and you rifle is exhausted. Doubtless that is the reason Eremis decided to risk his monster"
AHAA!
