This sounds like something Chade or Fool would say to Fitz in one of his depressing moments. So perhaps it's from the Tawny Man books. I have to think more.

It also sounds like something Kennit would say to Wintrow (or Etta). Or that Hest might say to Sedric (or Alise). Hrmph!!!

Might it be a liveship speaking? (obviously not a final answer)


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.

I've come to the conclusion that it isn't in any of the main 12 books, nor The Inheritance.

That means it must come from one of the other short stories I haven't read. Cruel, Farseer. Dodgy

It does mean that...and I believe that those beings known as 'thul have not read the short story I have quoted from either. *sniggers*

Yes. Two (or three!) can play that game... Big Grin

My only full article within the wiki - [[Pecksie]] - , particularly the info under the heading 'Communication', may enlighten you. Smiling
