"Reave The Just" and "By Any Other Name"

Post by Holsety »

So, I somewhat recently (actually, a few months ago now, I think) reread "Reave the Just and Other Tales" and I noticed that in the very last story, "By Any Other Name", the unnamed character who helps the POV character (Sher Abner?) has a kind of potent vitality and reality to him as he steals the POV character's identity. So I have come to the conclusion that the unnamed character is probably Reave the Just...mucking up the bad guys' plots again. Anyone else have comments?

I think so. But it's been a while since I've read it; I loaned my copy to a friend a year and a half ago, and haven't seen it since :(

SRD admitted as such in the gradual interview a few years ago. :)
