Bequeath, Pg 11B
The next update is running a little late. I expect it will be up no later than Monday, though. (Fingers crossed)
I knew I shouldn’t have taken Memorial weekend off… but I did anyway!

What are the bird things exactly?
I’m going to call them Mohawk Squids.
Does that enormous death egg belong to Zai’s group?
I think what you’re referring to as the enormous death egg is the Orbs of Rwahle in the background.
I’ve pondered this since I first started reading, but I’m fairly positive of it now – the Lady uses a very liberally interpreted, personally-biased view of what people ‘wish’ for.
I mean, that much was obvious beforehand. But taking advantage of “If I wasn’t capable of doing this, I wouldn’t feel so guilty about not doing it” to incapacitate someone, even though you were doing it to protect them, and then claiming afterward that you were just doing it because they wanted it…
One has to wonder if the Lady isn’t engaging in a bit of good old human telling-yourself-something-to-make-you-feel-better.
As I read the Lady’s last line of dialogue, I suddenly remembered a character from a 1970’s fantasy book. The Traveller in Black. He was charged to continue the work of bringing order to chaos. He was very good at this by granting people their wishes.
“As you wish so be it.”
I wonder if the Lady really doesn’t care or does she have a hidden agenda.
(Yay being over 4 years late to a conversation and over 18 months late to the last reply!)
Dude, I think this means the Lady really cares about Rona. She only used the whole monkey’s-paw-literal-wish thing so that Rona would, as she said, blame the Lady instead of herself.
