Lord Foul and the Creator's identities

Post by High Lord Tolkien »

In a moment of clarity today I realized what aspect of Thomas Covenant that Foul and the Creator are.

They are TC's amputated fingers.

Foul is the "Ring" finger.
Hence the never ending lust to regain the wedding ring.
The Creator is the pinkie finger.
Not sure what the significance of this is, perhaps none but there it is.

Sorry to ruin everything for everybody.
I sent Donaldson an email today telling him of my revelation and he wrote back to me saying "Damn!" and that he wasn't even going to continue writing the Last Chronicles anymore since I figured it all out.

He's going back to writing Power Rangers TV scripts.


:P

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want
to test a man's character, give him power.

"Carrion, my wayward son."
"Will there be pieces when you are done?"

But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.

The pinky finger reassures your hand's grip.

An Uncle of mine is a coal miner and he had one of his pinky fingers ripped off in an accident and he claims to lack the grip he once had.

Perhaps this helps ?
Brian: Who cured you?
Ex-Leper: Jesus did, sir. I was hopping along, minding my own business, all of a sudden, up he comes, cures me! One minute I'm a leper with a trade, next minute my livelihood's gone. Not so much as a by-your-leave! "You're cured, mate." Bloody do-gooder.
Brian: Well, why don't you go and tell him you want to be a leper again?
Ex-Leper: Uh, I could do that sir, yeah. Yeah, I could do that I suppose. What I was thinking was I was going to ask him if he could make me a bit lame in one leg during the middle of the week. You know, something beggable, but not leprosy, which is a pain in the @$$ to be blunt and excuse my French, sir.

I think that wraps it up quite well.
My work here is done.
Now to devote my energies to uncover the subtle nuances of The Sword of Shannara.

I'm sitting here grasping my ring and pinky finger in the opposing hand as to restrict them... damn this is annoying, no wonder Covenant is so grumpy.

That one's easy-Just read The Lord of the Rings.
