I wonder whether Tarrin can use Soultrap trick again (on Pyrosia), if he is afraid he would die...

Re: Soultrap
Its a bit of a conundrum.
Tarrin powers sorcery through his sword, if he dies, what powers the soul trap. If I remember right the magic items that they are currently carrying, with the exception of the spellbook is powered by sorcery/weave and normally wouldn't work.
I suppose the soul trap might not be wizardry, but I'm pretty certain he couldn't create something that complicated so early in the book if it was arcane.

Re: Soultrap
I think something happened already in previous chapters/books that should indicate something about this.. it's a really big spoiler though so I'm not sure if I wanna say.
instead I'll make you pour over all of Fel's words over again to try to find it

Re: Soultrap
Niami picked up the cat statue. But that'll only work if he's in Sennadar when he's destroyed.

Re: Soultrap
I was assuming a new trap would be made.Niami picked up the cat statue.

Just to complicate things more
If Tarrin dies, and fails to kill the One, and the Soul Trap does work. What takes precedence?
The One keeping the souls in Pyrosia or the Soul Trap?

Re: Soultrap
I think that Soultrap must be powered up/charged to be working. I remember that Tarrin's Soultrap was not perfectly closed, the soul would escape in month or so, if ot transferred to body.dash wrote:If Tarrin dies, and fails to kill the One, and the Soul Trap does work. What takes precedence?

Next question: what happens to Tarring god's soul (which is Firestaff creation) if he were to die on Pyrosia?

Re: Soultrap
Tarrin would die since his "Icon" are his wings... I believe after the fight with the One, Dolanna mention this.shadowhawk wrote: Next question: what happens to Tarring god's soul (which is Firestaff creation) if he were to die on Pyrosia?
