My Tin Hat Has Cooked My Brain... So Here is One for You,Rashid

(1/4) > >>

Mira:
   Harry is six foot nine, Thomas might be six feet or so, but not that tall.  Eb maybe around six feet or so, Malcolm isn't described if remember correctly is also about that height.  Margaret is described I believe as tall, but not out of the ordinary.  The only other wizard described as really tall, is Rashid at seven feet or more in height.  Who is the wizard who has managed to pull Harry's chestnuts out of the fire more often than any of the other wizards, including Eb?  Rashid..  Odd don't you think?  What if Rashid is really Harry's dad?  Yeah, I know, but it is hot and I think my tin hat over heated my brain... ::)

This sounds a bit excessive.

Plus we know Rashid is like, way old, having taking out Alhazred.

He's clearly Eb's dad, harry's great-granddad come to see if Eb is messing up this descendant too.

That is possible, but it is interesting that the only two recurring characters where their great height is repeatedly mentioned is Harry and Rashid.

I always assumed, Harry resembled bis father very much. Wasn't this mentioned somewhere? He got his heighth from Malcolm's line of family. McCoy got a pretty fresh description in Peace Talks chapter 3

--- Quote ---  An old man stood there. He was a couple of inches shorter than average, and stout.

So, what if Rashid is Malcolm's father? Isn't there a WOJ, that Malcolm was a normal human? This could still be the case, if he was a wizard's son, who has never got any magic.
I don:'t think Rashid is Eb's father.

As I said, it is totally tin hat, but now that the summer heat is here and COVID stay at home isolation, my cooked brain decided to just throw it out there.  Oh here is another little fun fact that
says maybe it isn't so crazy a theory..  Margaret and Rashid worked together a lot in and around the Winter Court, they traveled the Ways, they got together and compared notes.. Who knows?  They may have had a one night stand, and it only takes once..  Yes, I remember reading Margaret saying Harry is like his father, but not say Malcolm.  Maybe wizards are like the hero in "The Expanse," who was the product of multiple fathers?
