So I finished TCG last week and what a rush! Over all I loved the book, but I do have one question that is really bugging me.
After Tavore places her sword on the barrow, there is a scene where Banaschar and Fiddler force her to eat. I bought the kindle version so I don't have page numbers.
In this scene Fiddler is burning his Deck of Dragons, all except the House of Chains and they discuss who from the house is with them on their gamble. I can figure out who some are but I am still confused about others.
Quote:
Fiddler: "Eat, dear Consort. The rest are with us. Reaver, Fool, the Seven ... Leper ..." and his gaze fell for a moment with that title, before he looked back up, grinned over at Banaschar. "Cripple."
So...
Knight = Karsa (of course)
Consort = Tavore
Reaver = ???? I seem to remember that Kallor was the Reaver but in this case perhaps Lostara has assumed the role?
Fool = Blistig??
Leper = Fiddler?? the quote seems to suggest this
Cripple = Banaschar
Any thoughts on this?

iirc, the reaver had two people holding the position, male and female. if that is indeed the case i would put lostara and ruthan gudd in the position, flanking the consort, tavore, as they physically did in the finale.
There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

Or it could be Lostara by herself since Cotillion possessed her (hence "the Reaver has two faces"), also I'm pretty sure the Leper was Hedge, not Fid.

Yeah, fairly sure Leper was Hedge. I did get the impression that Fiddler had a position as well, but not sure what it was.

There's a wink about Hedge being the Leper in a POV from him right before the first discussion (in the Glass Desert) on the seats in the house (the one where it's said that the Reaver has two faces.) Hedge opens a section with the declarative "I feel like a leper."
