Then 'thul can place it with fairly decent certainty.
Somewhere in Words like coins.



Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.

Either that, or in "Cat's meat".

Pretty obvious that it was either of those two. Especially since 'thul checked again with the remaining short stories in RotE.

The trick in the CoD quote was making you think it was from one of the eleven first books, Farseer. Not so much in giving you a quote you could not (yet) answer.

*flaps off to pack for a weekend away*

Since I haven't read that short story, I'll leave your quote here for someone else to answer:

And I'll leave one of my own. Big Grin

Since we're being cruel and all.. I'll make this difficult. Or rather, I hope it's difficult. Ouch It's hard to tell what will be difficult or not when you know the exact situation from which the quote comes, haha. P

Who says it to whom, where, about what? In which book? Book

This is it. Flowers

As for your quote, Valarya, I'm going to say it's Fitz speaking with Fool in Fool's chamber when Fool revealed the tattoos on his back to Fitz. They'd not been speaking and also knowing Fool's usual need for privacy, Fitz was hesitant and therefore asked instead of assuming. That would place it in The Golden Fool as that's the book with the two covers that feature bared backs with tattoos. Smiling

Doh! Ouch Now I have to wonder if it's not Amber speaking with Paragon in The Mad Ship.

Undecided

Scratch that. Seeing as everyone seems to be concentrated on RWC, I'm going to say a keeper or some such with a dragon in DK. Ah...Thymara and Sintara? Or Alise and Sintara.

Undecided

Right...going back to the beginning with my gut instinct and initial thought and, if it's wrong, I'll then go from there. It's Fitz talking to Fool in TGF.

I just came across this. Wink

Oh, sorry Blushing, I think I have to offer another quote after getting the last one. Ah, how about this:

Quote:Well said, and I shall not.

A tricky one but I will give a prior quote sometime later, if required. So...who, when, where, to whom, what about, which book etc?

Me too!


But as for me, my heart is with the Sea, and I will dwell by the grey shores until the last ship sails.
