Pre-release City of Dragons (spoilers Farseer, LST, TM and RWC)

[NeverBeenWise]

I believe that Thymara will stay alone for a while, if only because she's just that stubborn. I'd like to see her develop into a more affectionate relationship with Sintara, though; as tense and deliciously dramatic their quarrels and spats can be, there's only so far they can go before sounding dull. When she finally does choose someone I'm leaning towards Rapskal, if only because (1) he's so friendly and optimistic all the time and (2) Heeby and Sintara would probably get along better than Fente and Sintara would, because Fente picks fights and is intelligent, while Sintara can just look at Heeby with some exasperation and disgust and be done with it. Then again, Tats might end up being with Thymara because the second reason would be a good, if minor, source of believable tension in their lives.

I doubt Fitz will make an appearance. He is content with his life in Withywoods *seethes quietly* and will probably not leave his settled life to do much more adventuring, especially with dragons, and most especially with dragons who are not haunting his/Nettle's dreams, pushing him to do things against his will. But perhaps the Fool will make a brief appearance at Kelsingra, or even just get a background mention? Once all the dragons are flying and living there, personally I think he (or she, or it ) should at least get to see the changes he wrought in the world before going back to Clerres. It's not TOO far-fetched, is it? *wistful sigh*
