I don't remember those rings mentioned later. Have they other powers? What happened to Denai and Val when we didn't followed their advemtures?In Denai's hands, the two steel manacles began to blaze with brilliant light, then began to change and contract. When the light faded, when Denai looked down at the miracle that had been taking place in her hands, she saw that the manacles had been replaced by two rings, made of many strands of multicolored metal twisted together to form a beautiful work of art. Denai and Sarraya stared at them in wonder, and then the Selani woman, not knowing what else to do with them, slid them onto her fingers. She would keep one, but the other, she vowed to herself, would be Var's. A symbol of their love for one another, and an eternal reminder of the strange friend that they had made in the desert, a friend as dear to her as any of her family.

Denai used them as wedding rings for her and Val. I think that's the last of their symboligy.shadowhawk wrote:"Honor and Blood", Chapter 20

Ignorance is bliss, knowledge is power. Are the powerful very unhappy?

Re: The Unanswered Question/Story behind the story!
I've just realized: how comes that exchange of wedding rings is common (?) marriage custom on Sennadar? How comes that Selani also (only?) follow this custom? Do the Selani use any (other) jewellery at all?lochar wrote:Denai used them as wedding rings for her and Val. I think that's the last of their symboligy.

Re: The Unanswered Question/Story behind the story!
I'd like also to see some non-Tarrin Sennadar stories. For example the story from Rallix point of view (first person, his impressions) from the time he got employed by Kerri to the marriage, ot to the birth of his son.
I'd like also to have some short stories (vingenettes) about Tsukatta, The Interdimensional Traveller (which can be crossover with everything you imagine: Forgotten Realms, Earthsea, Middleearth, Amber, Shadowrun, Valdemar, Escarp/Escore/Arvon, Krondor, Elenium/Belgariada world, hradani world,...).

Re: The Unanswered Question/Story behind the story!
Hmmm? I know this isn't the place but I would like to get back to Subjugation now. I know; I like Tarrin, Kimmie, Mist and the rest of the group, but lets face it before we jump off on the proverbial rabbit trails. I want to read more subjugation
. So there I said my peace. Keke.

Re: The Unanswered Question/Story behind the story!
I'd like also to know what happened to the Firestaff's Guardian after he was released from his obligation (i.e. after Tarrin got Firestaff).
And of course the story of Queen/Keeper of the Tower in Sharadar, Alexis Firehair, her scansion from street urchin to one of most powerfull Sorcerers in Sennadar.

Re: The Unanswered Question/Story behind the story!
I believe that this was because she had blue eyes before she turned were, and that whilst it wasn't common, it wasn't a "one of a kind" thing.shadowhawk wrote: An why Kimmie has blue eyes instead of the ordinary Were-Cat's green?
I'm sure this was explained in the books (book #2, i think).

Wasn't Val the dark God? I think it's Var that got the ring from Denai. :)lochar wrote: Denai used them as wedding rings for her and Val. I think that's the last of their symboligy.

"The Axe of the Dwarven King", Chapter 22:
She = Spyder. I wonder what this ibject is, why it is so sonesitive to shifts in Weave, and who this very old friend is (very old for Spyder? that must be ancient)?She wasnt kidding about her house. Virtually every room was nothing but bookshelves, bookshelves, and more bookshelves. She led him through six rooms to a stairwell leading down into the cellar, and they all were bookshelves, as were the rooms he looked into as they moved. You may move about the house freely, she told him. But there are two rooms that I ask you do not enter. Both are on the third floor, and both have the doors closed. One is my personal chamber. The other holds an object I am keeping safe for a very old friend, which is very dear to him, and is also sensitive to shifts in the Weave. I have the room Warded to protect it, but the effect that you and I have on the Weave makes it dangerous for us to enter that chamber.
