Glad it's happening for you! And yep, Reno Nevada is quite a ways away from where I am in Oregon, but you're getting closer ;)<br /><br />And glad you've found a worthy blogger for the next post, looking forward to it!Marcianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-42713676786641101872011-02-22T05:07:03.776-05:002011-02-22T05:07:03.776-05:00So that will be a nice holiday for Frank and me in...So that will be a nice holiday for Frank and me in April in the east and just me in August in the west.<br /><br />I'm working up some old notes on The Gathering Storm to resume the read-through soon(ish).

I'm sure that there have ...Frank: Yes she has!<br /><br />I'm sure that there have been various causes championed by the Blues. One was that Lord in Murandy they thought could unify that nation and Siuan made Gareth Bryne and Morgase leave him be - and then he was killed anyway. (Gareth Bryne told that story.)<br /><br />Marcia: I love Leane's good nature and grace. <br /><br />Thanks Marcia. I'm glad you appreciated them. I've changed roles at work recently (more work, of course!) which meant a slowdown on the last few, and they were big updates anyway. Soon I'll be going over there for JordanCon and I'll also be in Reno, Nevada for WOrldCon in August(!). I'll book my plane tickets this week. I guess Reno isn't that near you guys in Oregon.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767984732078916662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-65525515476294862182011-02-21T22:28:04.958-05:002011-02-21T22:28:04.958-05:00Hah!

One of my favorite of many little telling moments in the series is when Leane tells Siuan how she wishes Siuan had confided in her about what was going on (Dragon Reborn and all) much sooner than before it became essentially too late. Siuan could trust so few, and yet the one she could have trusted above anyone other than Moiraine was right there with her the whole time. And yet Siuan still doubted her loyalty; was it to her or to the Amyrlin or...? Sigh.<br /><br />Thanks again Linda for all your hard work these past few months with articles like these and all that intensive updating for ToM. Now take a break! ;)Marcianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-84635998414496125502011-02-21T14:11:29.892-05:002011-02-21T14:11:29.892-05:00Though I've always liked Leane, I had forgotte...Though I've always liked Leane, I had forgotten a lot of that stuff from Fires of Heaven. She really has come a long way, hasn't she? <br /><br />One thing I've always wondered about Leane, and all the other Blues, really, is just what their "cause" was. We really only know Moiraine and Siuan's (find and guide the Dragon Reborn), but none of the other ones really so much as hint at what their purpose is (though maybe Lelaine's is just straight-up "become Amyrlin").Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03301077496668834657noreply@blogger.com
