And the answer is a resounding "NO".
More likely the answer should be MEH.
(And no, I'm not joining!
)
Acknowledgment is a very large first step.

Why should she be forgiven...remember,
"She does not forgive"
Stave quoting LA

She should forgive Lord Foul?

True and mostly my remark was tongue in cheek - but there does seem to be some significance to her remark as Stave quotes her. Why? Does he detect some bitterness that smacks of the Haruchai? Stave has learned some of the folly of his people and their tendency toward extremeties in everything - they are an all or nothing kind of people - Vow or nothing victory or death - no sleep...ever! Give up wives and children...forever! No failure...ever! Be perfect and always win or you're unworthy.
Don't get me wrong, I love them, but I think we'll see that their extremism will land them with egg on their face and maybe LA may learn and thing or two as well about biterness.

I don't think she should be forgiven.
I'm not a THOOLAH member, I like LA, but that ressurrection was the WORST friging thing she could have done.
His first death was beautiful and wonderful and meaningful, and now he's just goin to die again, now he's incapable of helping preserve the arch of Time, and now (if we are to believe) the world is going to end!
HOW IS THAT A GOOD RESULT?

2 more books, my friend, 2 more books.
SRD won't let us down.
Plus you have no idea if he's going to die again.

He's CAN live forever because he's the creator...opps! Sorry. Wait, no, he's Lord Foul...er, I mean...

Well we'll see...
I can't shake the feeling that SD's doing what he can to Ensure that the end of this series is the final End... Perhaps so people won't bug him for more books...
That is an interesting question about TC's newfound mortality though... If he is resurrected to just like he was, he won't have a summonner in the sense that he wasn't summonned from our world..
And SD isn't going to let us down in terms of what he's writing, the quality of the books and the scope of what he's trying to achieve.. I fully agree to that!
