-Yes, that word.
-As for the spell being castable again, I'd posit that it very well could be. Many 10+ Level spells were "remade" as Epic Spells. In theory, Karsus' Avatar could. Given the fact that it took the great mage the better part of many, many years to develop the spell, and the methods of the spells creation have since been lost to the sands of time, the odds of some enterprising magician "converting" Karsus' Avatar into Epic form is infinitesimally small, but possible, in theory. |

Agreed. Though Richard said he might have survived, as well as those that are only "assumed" dead. In the first place, we haven't seen Nevron [The Mane] being torn apart by more powerful demons in hell. He might have countered Tam's spell the moment he set foot in hell.
While id like to believe that, maybe the more logical conclusion is that he is a mane but to make it more interesting he retains his memory. Now that i would like a novel made |
Everything ends where it begins. Period.

If he remains a mane, he wouldn't survive even for an hour in hell. That's exactly the reason Tam transformed him into such.

If so, all the deities should have been left virtually powerless during the Spellplague. Yet we've seen Bane pretty much in hale condition in Undead, [just moments after both the Weave and the Shadow Weave were shattered.] |

| In my opinion, too many main characters get killed in FR novels. It gets extremely annoying, especially when you get attached to a character. |

| Bareris and Tammith in The Haunted Lands. Their relationship was well-done and the end was fittingly abrupt. |

Hmm. I have to admit, at some point during my rereads, I thought the romantic subplot of Tammith and Bareris was an unwelcome distraction . . . |
