"None will outlast her on the sheets..."

'Bitch,' forsooth. I will deem it a courtesy if you will refrain until we are better able to heed you.

LOL

The Giant sailors are little more than star trek red-shirts.

Jeremiah knows what a "fane" is? Even I didn't know what a fane is.

Just as I predicted 3 years ago on this forum, the Giants are gone. I predicted this based on the flimsy evidence that they didn't have very interesting characterizations. They were just Swordmainnir. (And then Giant sailors.)

Jeremiah didn't call it a "fane", Infelice did. Jeremiah built a sanctuary for the Elohim. I didn't know what a fane was either, I just presumed it meant the same as a sanctuary - that's probably what Jeremiah did too. A rose by any other name...............

(Edit) I just looked it up, it means temple. That's how Jeremiah thought of his building - he called it a temple.

"It is not a gaol. It is a fane."
Like an antiphony, her bells chimed relief. They implied awe.
"That’s right!" Jeremiah crowed.

Jeremiah knew what she meant by "fane."

Well, he's cleverer than me then. No formal education too!

There is lots of arcane language that I have had to look up and all the "people from another time" seem to understand it! I just had to look up "devoir".

I also had to look up devoir, which means 'duty.'

Linden and Stave just beamed away somewhere, perhaps never to return. Gosh, how sad.

iQuestor, please finish your story.

The Haruchai as a people did not know that smell. They had never confronted the Despiser.

Linden Avery has been redeemed.

I'm not sure where all the "the Giants in the Last Chronicles aren't memorable" stuff comes from. Not memorable compared to whom?

Remember those "memorable" Giants from the other trilogies? Mistweave? Sevinhand? Galewrath? ....WHO?

Actually, besides Foamfollower and Pitchwife, Cabledarm might be the third most memorable Giant in the whole series.

Foamfollower
Pitchwife
The First
Honninscrave
Seadreamer
Mistweave
Sevinhand
Galewarth

all of them more memorable to me. All of them individually realized. The latter giants, not so much. IMO.

You think the Bloodguard tried to mind-speak with three insane Haruchai wielding the Illearth stone against them? Doubt it.

Jeremiah being fed knowledge of all the lore in the world - sounds like Neo and the others learning kung fu.

Well, they did it.
