[split] Memories/Forging (spoilers all books incl RWC)

[FoolishGirl]

Sorry for back-to-back posts...I am the worst, repeat offender here!

I've just had a thought that the serpents losing their memories is not unlike the loss of human memories etc during the Forging process that was instigated by the Pale Woman.

Hi Farseer! I'm not sure I would say that Forging is strictly " loss of memories". It seemed to me to be more like losing their souls or maybe their emotions. Seemed like I remember a description by Chade that Forged Ones know their family members (i.e., remember them) but lack any feeling for them. Although why you would not be able Wit sense a person who lost their memories OR their soul, I have no idea!
