Peace Talks interesting things and questions

--- Quote from: Conspiracy Theorist on January 10, 2022, 11:11:18 PM ---Could Bobs parents therefore be Mother Winter and a Black Staff.

--- End quote ---
If the Shadow of Mother Winter thing is true, then absolutely.

But that would imply that either we have met a previous wielder of the Blackstaff, or that Ebenezar went back in time at some point and gave "birth" to Bob.

Conspiracy Theorist:
But that would make Bob Margaret’s brother.

And Bob Harry’s Uncle. Would Jim set us up over 20 odd books for a “Bob’s You Uncle” joke. Why, yes he would.

The Black Staff has permission to break the rules, so a little time travel is not out of the question.

That may suggest that the price of taking up the Black Staff is to give birth to one of Mother Winters children, a spirit of intellect. I bet Mother Summer is the midwife if so . Eb doesn’t know about Bonny,  nor about Lash, so Harry and Eb may be blissfully unaware of each other predicament.

Again the British Prisoner may be a former BlackStaff, and Demonreach the only way to relinquish the shadow.

The_Sibelis:

--- Quote from: Conspiracy Theorist on January 07, 2022, 01:20:16 AM ---If there is a Denarian on the White Council it’s Ancient Mai, she is old even for a Wizard and doesn’t have the excuse of being in the NeverNever all the time.

--- End quote ---
was thinking the woj about them getting 'ancient Mai' accurate in the series had something to do with the dragon heritage emphasis?

morriswalters:
If Ancient Mai is a Denarian she needs to fire her fallen and Kick Nic's behind for Anduriel.  She's too visibly old.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Just re-Reading Peace Talks, page 19 states that the small wooden skull was prepared for her. Bob originally asked for it as a backup. However, many people have wondered how Bob didn’t spot Bonny growing. Perhaps the answer is he did, but didn’t tell Harry, (because he didn’t ask) but made sure Bonny had her own Sanctum when born.

This implies Bob put Bonny over Harry and was expecting Harry to die when Bonny was born, as happened on most such occasions. It also suggests that Harry has realised this. It may explain why Bob pleaded to Harry “don’t kill me” later in Battle Ground.
