Could that latter one be Fitz talking to Nighteyes in Fool's Errand?

These beings suspect that it was more in the direction of Nighteyes speaking to Fitz. Other than the occasional porcupine, *Nighteyes did not tend to get into trouble the way Fitz tends to. The location and setting would be an evening in front of the fire in the cabin he had retired to.

I'm thinking the incident with the fish.

Nope, sorry you are all on the wrong track. It is Nighteyes speaking to Fitz (for the first one anyway) but the location and time is completely out.

Paragon-Athena, can you please confirm that the above (quote 28) was Nighteyes to Fitz, as I think you meant in your previous post? I might be just confused though! I only ask as I have just had a lightbulb moment and thought that it may have actually been Burrich talking to Chade in the hut when Fitz was still coming back to himself after he "died"/from being in Nighteyes' body, which would make it in the beginning of AQ somewhere. Burrich was questioning Chade's wisdom in allowing Fitz to scry in water, even though he had the Skill and the Wit? I am coming up to it in my re-read of the RotE books so may be wrong...but I am sure this is one of the passages that got me interested in the whole The Circle of Magic topic. We never did find out for sure if Fitz could, or couldn't, scry in water...though he was unsuccessful at the above time, he was still not quite himself so we have to wonder if RH wasn't just putting us off for a 'reveal' of his true abilities at a later time! 29 Wrote:"And I would come and save you. Again." This one is in my head somewhere...I just have to pin it down!!

But yes, the quote is from Nighteyes to Fitz. But when? Ah, when.....?

This is one of those quotes I know without having to think... It's Amber speaking to Malta aboard Paragon, just before he sets sail on the voyage to retrieve the Vivacia (where Ronica, Keffria etc are there to see him off with Brashen and Althea at the helm). I remember this as it is in or around the same passage that speaks of the need for Malta to beware of one who would seek her crown for her own...or something like that anyway(I have quoted in the Malta thread)... This would make it in The Mad Ship? Now that I've said I know, I'll be way wrong!
