Just started reading Runes, so I'm dubious of looking too deeply at this forum topic area.
I realised that Anele is Elena spelt backwards.
If there is anyone else at the early stages of reading this book please comment, but dont spoil it for me if you find out later in the book if there is any significance in this - I just wanted to share an excited 'Ooooo thats interesting.'

Ooooh. Never spotted that. Dunno if it's relevant though, more likely a red herring.

Nah, I don't think it matters... Probably SRD hasn't even realised it yet!

No, there is no significance in that in the fisrt few chapters.

And in the GI, he indicated that he didn't even notice until a friend pointed it out to him.
Again, us fans are just way too silly about some things. Glad SRD thinks we're mostly ok though

Martin Bennett: I haven't yet completed reading Runes, so my answer may come within the pages of the book, but just in case:
Anele | elenA
Is this something to do with the corruption of Time? Both possessed Staffs (staves?), and both lost them. Both were involved in breakages of Law, although not with equal culpability.
What I am trying to say is - is the naming of Anele as the reverse of Elena a coincidence?
Martin Bennett
Yes, it's just a coincidence. I didn't notice the Elena/Anele spelling until a friend pointed out to me--too late for me to do anything about it. Sometimes these things just happen.

With a name like "Wipe" we should have expected that...
