RJ Hints at the Tower of Ghenji!!!

[Marie 73]

Oh, in that case I was disappointed on a whole lot more than Moiraine.

[Kaitlin 22]

I slept through CoT but I did read it.

I do not know what the tower of Ghenji is. =

But I am 3/4's through Lord of Chaos.

It's a Chekhov's Gun that was mentioned way back in book 1 I believe, when Rand and Mat are on the boat with Bayle Domon.

Oh, I remember that part. They were on their way to Whitebridge(?) and Mat stares lustily at its herculean phallic shape in the distance.

Tosh and Vertex: Proving the world right about Sweden one post at a time.

[Tosh 8]

The world are saying things about us behind our backs? Treacherous swine!

 

Alas, the things I do to amuse... Myself more often than not.

[Marie 73]

I am amused.

[Tosh 8]

Nice to know.

The Tower is also visited by Perrin and Birgitte in TSR. It's after Perrin hunts SLayer for the first time. Ah, Slayer is another REALLY CRAZY COOL baddie who I hope they give a good wrap up to in Memory of Light!

Yeah, I wondered what happened to him! IIRC we never see him again after Luc rides out of Emond's Field wounded.

 

Oh wait, doesn't he show up later on when some Forsaken hires him to try to assassinate Rand and Min in their bed through Tel'Aran'Matrix, but he gets the wrong couple? My memory is hazy. But I thought the whole identity-morphing/personality-fusion between Isam (Slayer and Lan's cousin) and Luc (Tigraine's long-lost brother) was really cool, especially since I think it was foreshadowed way back in TGH, in that poem that also mentions Lanfear that Verin translated.

 

Considering that he vanished into the Tower of Ghenjei when Perrin chased him in the World of Dreams... he just may show up when Mat and co. go there to rescue Moiraine!

[Ekho 52]

Yeah I always wondered about Slayer, maybe it was the Finn who morphed Isam and Luc into the one body

[Marie 73]

Slayer always reminds me that I am reading a fantasy novel (two people, one body).

[Kaitlin 22]

Slayer always reminds me of Tom Araya.

[Marie 73]

That whole possessing other people's bodies thing was always one aspect of WoT that made my head hurt.
