Sunder, because he is the only person not to appear in the first Chronicles?

Sunder
because he never compared Covenant to Berek?

WHen did Troy compare Cov to Berek? You're getting close, but wrong person.

you were closer with your first guess.
It has to do with when each person met Covenant

The group in order of appearance:
LFB:
Lena - met TC first - died in PTP saving TC from Pietten
Baradakas - Hirebrand of the lillianrill - TC met him at Revelstone - part of the quest for the staff of law - Died in LFB
TIW:
Susie Thurston - Singer at a bar in the 'real world'
Hile Troy - from the 'real world' - but met TC in the land became Caer-Caveral
TWL:
Sunder - Graveler of Mithil Stonedown - guided LA & TC through the sunbane suffering land.

Susie Thurston - sticks out here but for for obvious reasons I don't think she is the one.
So I keep thinking:
Hile Troy because I don't remember him singing anything until he became Caer-Caveral
.... <Grasps at straws to hold on dearly to her sanity...>

The group in order of appearance:
Lena - called TC BEREK
Baradakas - BEREK
Susie Thurston - "BEREK" - sounded like it.
Hile Troy - saw TC AS A MAN FROM HIS OWN WORLD - BUT LEARNED THE HISTORY saw him in a positive light at first.
Sunder - as son of Nassic he knew the story of TC Illender - and he was warned as a Graveler to be wary of the halfhand. Sunder did not know the story of Berek. - ONLY NEGATIVE THOUGHTS ....

OUCH MY HEAD HURTS from over analyzing ....

I think Troy remembered him as an author... someone may have read one of his books to him?

Quillon
Nyle
Havelock
Gilbur
Eremis
