Random questions about Liveships (spoilers Farseer, LST and TM)

[londonlassie]

True, but his little charm effectively "married" himself to her in the end, taking it upon himself to make Etta think Kennit was watching over her.

Although, I found it difficult to believe she'd never work out that the charm was sentient. Everyone who touches a Liveship senses the underlying awareness, eg Brashen and Vivacia, even if it's not quickened. While the charm got away with pretending to be Kennit while the real Kennit was actually there, I doubt he could talk to Etta and not eventually have her realise it was the charm. But I suppose he'd essentially let her believe he was "Kennit", like a repository for all Kennit's feelings for her or something to help her along after he died.

Or the "Marry-Etta" could have been referring, not to Kennit, but to Wintrow, who almost definitely wanted to.

Although, as much as I adore going into such things in depth and trying to work out what they refer to, it was probably sheer coincidence.

EDIT: I'm liking the new signature, 'thul beings.
