Posted: Sat Jun 11, 2005 1:18 am
Okay, dANdeLION’s running around chasing his tail, and the entire Mordant’s need dissection is four pages from being complete, and about six months behind schedule, to boot. So, when you’re dAN and you’re stuck in a Wal-mart getting your car fixed and you need someone to bail you out, who do you call? Well, me, Mr. Fixit.
So, here we are. The Good Guys won; the Bad Guys lost, including a particularly poetic loss by the slimiest of the Bad guys, who is forever faced with his own narcissism, as well as the medieval pimples on his bare butt. Joyse has once again proven his brilliance, and as the victor, he sets himself to rewarding all those who made his victory possible.
In a nutshell, here’s how the heroes of Mordant are rewarded; Prince Kragen is now High Regent of Cadwal, and the Lady Elega is his consort.; Nyle replaces Kragen as the Alend Contender. Darsint is now the Castellan and marries Myste. Artagel is the new Perdon. And the Armigite even gets a present; Joyse chooses to ignore him completely, even though Darsint sensibly suggested beheading him.
As for Teresa and Geraden, they are both given the gift of themselves, a gift that showed itself to them each more and more during the whole ordeal. Geraden would never again be the awkward, unsure boy he was when Teresa met him; a boy who seemed to subconsciously know that there was no person for him on the whole planet. Teresa learned how to have passion for her own self and for others; she learned to reach inside herself and find a nearly limitless reservoir of strength to draw from. Oh, and they get married, and live happily ever after, because that’s what happens in fairy tales.
