Joriaem (sp?) would be cooler, but I still think its Valzaan. And about those two reasons, Valzaan was saying "hold one, and you can tell her yourself years from now." That was if he lived.

The arms that bore the cross now bear me through my sin.
The nails that pierced his hands and feet now nail my sin to Him.
The One who suffered, bled and died, His life He freely gave.
And His vict'ry won over death and Hell now lifts me from the grave. ~Ramblings from the Life of a Sinner

It's not just that he was perfect. It was that he had trouble making up his mind and then didn't learn from his mistakes. (as he himself pointed out when talking to Aljeron on the Forbidden Island)

Personally, Aljeron was my fave character, followed by the twins. While I did like Joraiem, he just bugged me after a while.

HELLOO!!!!! man what happened to the forum? they change it?


aright, well hey nighthawk, Trellis, and all



Yeah I think it will be either Joraiem or Valzaan but it would have so much more of an emotional effect if it was Joraiem. However, Joraiem was never the "all-knowing calm dude" kindof guy. He was always sort of the "what the heck is going on!??!" person, who really wasn't that sensible although he had a big heart and really wanted to do what was right. it would strike me as odd if it was Joraiem because he's in the middle of winter in the land of Nolthanin, and when Aljeron says "it can't be" he says something of the sort of "Yes, it can!" It seems like more of a Valzaan sort-of thing to say, seeing as he was always the wise man who knew more than just about anyone.

On the other hand, Joraiem died and he could have gained wisdom from All-Father in the years he was dead. But most likely it will be Valzaan and towards the end when all things are made knew there will be all of the people, including Joraiem, that come back and it will be an extremely satisfying emotional ending.


But hey, that's just my two cents, sorry that my two cents was really long! lol

Yeah, they changed the forum when they took it off-line for a while.


Yes, it makes way more sense for it to be Valzaan rather than Joraiem. HOWEVER, it would be super cool if it was Joraiem. I mean, come on! LB's the author here, people. Look what he's done so far, killing of the main character in the first book, 'killing' the prophet in the second.

Anyway, sorry. Personally, I'd much rather see Valzaan, cuz Joraiem got on my nerves, like I said earlier. At the same time, I'd like to see Joraiem for Aljeron and Wylla's sakes.
