How would Terisa have felt if Geraden and Saddith had

Post by Revan »

Got together? She wasn't in love with him at that time... (And I know they get together in the second book) Would she still been able to love him as much as she does in the second book?

You're confused, Revan. Geraden's character is what won Teresa's heart as much as anything. And it was character that Separated Geraden from the likes of Eremis, who probably had HIV by the end of the book.

Geraden would have never done that. He's just not that kind of guy. He's a decent and earnest boy-next-door type of guy.
And yeah, if there were venerial diseases in Mordant, Eremis and Saddith would both be in trouble. :wink:

Darth u really need to finish the books b4 you ask questions like this. Why do you want to know stuff in the 2nd book--just read the second book! Nobody else in a discussion forum here behaves like you do. It would have been a completely different story if that had happened--that's all there is to it. And yes it is implicit in the books that she is a virgin--have you really read the 1st book or is it your habit to ask off the wall questions?

I just can't be bothered to wait until four weeks for the bookstore to get the book through... Is it wrong to want to know what is going on?

Yes, it is. At least, for you. :D

Most people don't post or ask questions in a book discussion forum until they have read the books--so feel to post and ask question about The Mirror of Her Dreams. :D If in fact you have read it. :wink: That fact that you can't even find A Man Rides Through in a local used bookstore amazes me! :roll:

Shipping to Britain takes over a month, Danlo. Unless you want to pay for air, which would more than double the cost.

Not true Prince of Amber sent me a copy of Neverness 2 years ago and it got here in 1 week 2 days! And I'll pay--I'll pay almost anything so he'll stop prying answers and contribute to the discussion! :haha:

"How would Terisa have felt if Geraden and Saddith had got together?"

I noticed no one ever has answered Revan's years-old question, and while I realize it's unlikely most of the people who posted on this thread are stil watching for responses after all this time, I still want to answer the question because the thread is still here and present and future Kevin's Watch readers will still be checking this thread out.

There are a few clues as to how Terisa would react to knowing Geraden and Saddith were having a physical relationship, and I'll go over them once I've gathered up the relevant quotes.

First clue: Terisa finds Geraden physically attractive.
In [i]The Mirror Of Her Dreams[/i] Chapter 1 was wrote:He wasn't reflected in the mirror: he was in the mirror. He was behind her startled image--and moving forward as if he were floundering through a torrent.

He was a young man, perhaps only a few years older than she was, and he wore a large brown jerkin, brown pants, and leather boots. His face was attractive, though his expression was foolish with surprise and hope.
