So what do the great minds of DL message board think ;)
#2 zombiegleemax Oct 15, 2003 0:40:01	This is an interesting point you have brought up. It would explain why he chose Raistlin to become the sword in the upcoming war of the lance. They had the same background probably...growing up poor and having to go through the same pains....makes sense...Par -salian comes across as someone who had to work very hard for everything he has achieved...not like some person who came from a rich family and had everything handed to him. Good point.

Its only brushed upon in thier conversations, but what a white robe and a black robe were doing together and their subsequent working relationship into later life would make an interesting story. Was it ever elaborated upon in some other books?
#4 zombiegleemax Oct 15, 2003 15:22:54	I don't think so that love affair i think will always be a mistery. But they could have been childhood lovers at there mage school
#5 zombiegleemax Oct 16, 2003 0:37:42	That is a good idea, the three heads of the orders during the wAR OF THE lANCE SHOULD BE FLESHED OUT A LITTLE BIT BETTER. wHAT EVER HAPPNEED TO THE MAGE THAT FOUND rAISTLIN?
#6 zombiegleemax Oct 16, 2003 1:08:22	I'm not sure, it's been awhile since i've read Soulforge.
#7 zombiegleemax Oct 16, 2003 15:50:01	Unfortunatly the only things we know for sure are that Par-salian and Ladonna were lovers in their youth (doesn't state when) and that they still hold some kind of affection for each other, no matter how weak it turns out to be. Both things are stated and hinted in legends, (in on the last chapters of book1) and it is also in DLA. I would like to see a book about their youth, and then again not. There must still be mysteries for us to think, or some of DL's charm would be lost. what happened to the mage who discorved raistlin? I don't recall it, but I think his name was Antimodes or something.
#8 carteeg Oct 16, 2003 16:44:53	Antimodes also appears at the beginning of 'Brothers-in-Arms', but since I've yet to finish that book, I don't know if he reappears. If he doesn't, then I think he's pretty much just gone poof in the histories. I also don't know what the guy had against Modes either.
#9 zombiegleemax Oct 18, 2003 11:21:32	i just finished reading brothers-in-arms he dose not come back but i still find it funny for him just to fall of the map after all he is a major spy for pal-salian and an arch-magus himself where could he have gone during the WOTL
