No. Really.

'I dream we are three
Rutt who is not Rutt and Held
Who cannot be held-
The girl knows silence
Is a game
The boy knows the kiss
Of the Eres'al
The mother of wheeling stars
Who seeds all time
Through me they hear your need
I am the voice of the unborn
In Crystal I see fire and I see smoke
I see lizards and Fathers
In crystal I see the boy and the girl.
Heal the wound, God,
Your children are close-'
The girl and the boy are Sinn and Grub, of course. Sinn, who was mute for a while around most people, knows silence is a game. And Grub knows the kiss of the Eres'al??!! I'm assuming here of course that Grub is probably still a bit too young for the Eres'al's tastes for her to be kissing him the way she would Bottle (since he is supposed to be like 9 at this point, despite his enormous growth spurts), so instead what if she were kissing him affectionately as a child?
It could definitely explain quite a few weird things about him. And while Grub may be the supposed manifestation of the Chain of Dogs, he does still have to come from somewhere, just like Sinn was a little girl being tutored by Fayelle (and a Tanno) at some point. And while Grub does seem more of a mage-type in DoD, he definitely showed a more warlock-type affinity in HoC and tBH with Nil and Nether. His memory-blanks and appearances in crucial places are somewhat similar to the Eres'al's sudden appearances, too, I might add, especially the two of them appearing together in Malaz City and Grub showing Lostara the Eres'al's posession of T'amber.
