The Speculation Thread!

[rowana.livejournal.com]

I suspect this may be one of many.

This is a thread for ideas about the next book. What's Gen going to do about Nahuseresh? What will happen to Costis? Is Sophos really dead?

Those and other questions can be discussed here. :)

But if he were hiding Sophos, why wouldn't he tell Irene? Or Eddis?

Gen? Telling people things? I have no doubt that Gen will find a way to keep Eddis from marrying Sounis, without revealing one little bit of his plan. And even if he isn't the one hiding Sophos and doesn't know where he is, I've no doubt that he'd never let Eddis marry Sounis without being absolutely sure that Sophos was dead.

:D It's definitely an idea, Gen does lie, but he seemed so genuine when he was talking about Sophos. And he usually has a reason for lying.

But I think you're right about the being unwilling to look favourably on the marriage unless Sophos was definitely dead.

Well, in this case, hiding Sophos could cause further unrest in Sounis (and if it doesn't I'm sure Gen could provoke further unrest), which might bring the Mede over unasked and Sounis will have to ally with Eddis and Attolia without a marriage just to get the Mede off his shores and the Powers That Be on the Continent will see that the Mede will stop at nothing to get there hands on the countries of Eddis, Attolia and Sounis and will finally step in and help and will forever after prevent the Medes from returning.


*breathes* Wow. I typed that just like I would have said it, super fast and without pausing for breath.

:D I think we should agree to disagree.

But the plot that you just gave was certainly one worthy of several books. :D

I'm not sure I agree with me, so it's perfectly fine if you don't.

I haven't really thought about what's going to happen in the next book, I'm just responding as I go and amusing myself with what comes out of my brain.

*grins* Even thought I pulled them out of my ass thin air, it would be nice to not only see my theories come true, but to see several more books. Within the next couple of years. I baby-sit! I was a nanny for two years. Just move back to California and I'm sure we can set something up!

It would be pretty cool to see anyone theories come true. The more different, the better. And good luck with the babysitting. You're braver than I am. :)

I don't baby-sit much any more. But I'd be willing to do it for MWT. Especially if it meant getting a new book (be it about Gen and Co. or anything else) that much sooner. And maybe if I was her baby-sitter MWT would let me have a preview. Oh god, that would be so great.
