So, leave it now please. No more. Not interested. Not caring. PM works well...

For Tool - wasnt he just First Sword of one clan? My memories are iced. But I think that SE will bring back some his GotMism powers with final climax and Kilava-badass

Hetan has read the last book and hints at Tool being an absolute badass in the last book, cannot wait!

Apt is the only one who reads this. Apt is nice.

Kilava is alive after 300,000yrs because Onrack painted her on some cave wall, and what is painted has some magic properties. Neither knew that at that time, and the nest day they Ritualed and blasted the 4 Tyrants gathering for some streetfighter action.

While the hag Ethil chose to become undead like her adopted spawn, Kilava has evolved during the ages and grown, as Dust of Dreams noted.

She talked about flinting a new sword from the mountain ranges end of Memories of Ice and aspecting it for him.

I still haven't worked out why Tool freed Raest. Was he compelled to by the Empress? If clanless and thus not really controllable like the rest of his brethern, why did he?

If there were no smart people others wouldn't feel inadequate.

Right?

Hey I missed some drama, wth? I'd love to know the logic behind what Worrywort said, if someone could PM me about it I'd appreciate it

Anyways, quote-fu for the win, he's not a Bonecaster, though has a strong tie to Tellan as the chosen champion of an entire people.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

No, he was definitely the First Sword of all the T'lan Imass. Enough evidence of that in DoD when he meets T'lan Imass that weren't part of his clan and they still talk about him as their First Sword

So, you're the historian who survived the Chain of Dogs.
Actually, I didn't.

Or that T'lann Imass with the swords in her chest who survived Assail and meets Envy in MoI and is Kerluhn( I think) and also calls him the First Sword.

The GotM Tool was a hell of a lot more powerful than the T'lan Imass seem to be later on in the books. He had a magic killing warren that stretched across half a continent.

Maybe being a First Sword grants special abilities or maybe it's best to just not think too much about it.

Just to whet your appetites a bit - TCG delivers - big time!

Just to clarify Tool's position.

You are a harsh, harsh, Mistress.

Hetan's cryptic statements about Tool makes me think that he is going to end Olar Ethil. This has a flavor that reminds me of Erikson.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Interesting, I was always under the impression that Tool was holding back, first with the fight against Mok in MoI, and then with the Senan's challenges in DoD (I don't think it was a bluff when he asked Bakal if it was alright for a Warleader to slay a thousand of his warriors just to prove it point, heh)

Lives and loves, the gamut of existence was marked by such things. A breaking of paths, the ragged, uneven ever-forward stumble. Blood dried, eventually. Turned to dust. The corpses of kings were laid down and sealed in darkness and set away, to be forgotten. Graves were dug for fallen soldiers, vast pits like mouths in the earth, opened in hunger, and all the bodies were tumbled down, each exhaling a last gasp of lime dust. Survivors grieved, for a time, and looked upon empty rooms and empty beds, the scattering of possessions no-one possessed any longer, and wondered what was to come, what would be written anew on the wiped-clean slate. Wondering, how can I go on?

He wasn't holding back, the top ranked Seguleh are just that awesome. Mok is a rival to the 1st position.

In a sense, T'ool was th Mortal Sword of the entire Imass race, and then the T'lan Imass. In theory, he's the martial champion of the entire tellan ritual.

Tool was fighting Mok down to Moks level.

Mok proved to be the superior swordsman, but Tool was not using any of his other powers. It was a battle of sword skills, not overall potency.

However, Tool's other powers are most likely latent abilities. He isn't like Dassem, or Rake, where you are thinking "umm, why doesn't he just blast his opponent into oblivion rather than swordfight him? I think Tool is just an amazing swordsman, who happened to be granted powers of longevity and nullification by the Tellan ritual. From what we saw, Mok was the superior swordsman. Perhaps Tool wasn't really defeated by Mok, and he could have kept on going, sustaining larger injuries and being maintained by the Ritual. But for the purposes of the duel fought in MoI, Mok was better. As Rel told us in RotCG, Seguleh duels don't hafta go to the death to be conclusive.

So, you're the historian who survived the Chain of Dogs.

Mok defeated Tool and he makes no excuses for it, but since I am a fanboy I will make excuses for him. He most certainly says he is being weakened by Silverfox. He still manages to blow a hole in the city wall that hedge and the bridgeburner's follow in his wake. He doesn't use any such ability on Mok. Tool sees the ability/artistry of Mok as the better swordsmen. In my heart as a fanboy Tool would be the winner should they meet right now. At the end of DoD.

Sincerely

What I do not know fills many more volumes than what I do know.
