Swords and Ancestry

Kindler:
I'd argue the opposite, but it's really just preference; I think that the teasing of other candidates (Murphy and Susan briefly, then Butters permanently) points to the final Sword falling to a Carpenter. The twist would be that it was the one least expected, the Dutiful Daughter Amanda rather than the more prominent ones, like the youngest children and Daniel. I could buy Hope, if only because her nickname is Hobbit, too.

I'm one of the few who wouldn't be particularly happy if Thomas or Marcone wound up as a Knight.

Marcone's out in my book, he really only fit Fidelachius.  Id still be pleased with Thomas for Amorachius.  I also tend to think (or maybe just want to believe) that the whole Carpenter family got passed over for a sword when Charity fumbled that catch.

Im curious who we'll eventually see take up Esperiachius at the end (because you know all the original Knights are going to bite it); I suspect Harry will get a one-scene use of it as their last Hope.

Well, we have three names: Faith (who will be returning), Hope (Carpenter), and Amanda (which means "Worthy of love"). It's a bit on the nose, but I can't argue against that kind of thing.

Quantus:
Another reason why I dont want it to be any of them is that they are all still mostly faceless extra's.  I want them to go to characters we've spent time with, not somebody from the fringes.

I still don't want it to be Daniel. Way too linear.

Have you considered Daniels potential fall into (click to show/hide)An incarnation of Kain? His is a basic reinvention of the biblical families after all. And we have little Harry for him to fall to jealous toward... Mmm I hope more than theorize this one lol. Not that I hope it ends the same of course
