Talk:Corwin of Amber

message: I'd rather the page was called Corwin of Amber, he's never really referred to as 'Lord Corwin' in the books. User:213.60.0.173
:Agreed, and I have moved the page. —Lowellian (talk) 09:23, May 15, 2005 (UTC)
::He's never called Corwin of Amber, either.  Since I'm clearing up elsewhere, I'll move it to Corwin (The Chronicles of Amber) Percy Snoodle 14:35, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I don't think the Grayswandir article could ever grow out of being a stub - but it might make a decent section here. Percy Snoodle 14:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge from [[Grayswandir]] 

message: After learning that Grayswandir and Werewindle were spikards, I wondered if they were turned into blades after the Pattern was written (and inscribed for extra power) or whether the Pattern was drawn from the spikards and they reflected their nature when transformed. (And what about the Jewel?  It has the image of the Pattern inside.  Could it be a transformed spikard?)
:The Jewel could not be a transformed spikard, as it is the left eye of Snake of Chaos. Yes this is the problem: is the Pattern shape taken from the Jewel, or is it taken from the blades of Grayswandir and Werewindle? The solution may be, that the general shape of Pattern is more ancient and exists in some abstractive way in every source of power? Interesting: at first we believe, that the Shadows appeared when the Pattern were created (as a result of balance of power), then it is told, that some shadows existed before, stabilized by the spikards. My idea: maybe the left eye of Snake was an opposition to his right eye and so the power was gathered in Snake (so, where the Unicorn appeared from and how did he steal the eye? Maybe the Unicorn was just another side of Snake?). After the left eye were stolen and Pattern created, the opposition appeared and the Shadows became more fixed (at least at the order half of multiverse) and the infinite war begun.

replies: text: My specific question is whether it was brought up (in the short stories) that the Pattern could have been a reflection of information contained in the spikards. Ladlergo 19:54, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

text: It is?  I seem to recall him learning about it only in the Hall of Mirrors, after the first Chronicles. Ladlergo 18:10, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

text: Hrm.  If he knew that it was a spikard, then it seems like he didn't know the full amount of power that a spikard has access to (unless his lack of sorcery training limited what he could do with it).  I suspect that Brand didn't know about Werewindle being a spikard, or else he would have been far more juiced up at the end than he actually was.  Any suggestions for the way to rewrite the section?

text: I incorporated your ideas in the latest version here.  I also reread the stories and updated their entries. Ladlergo 20:10, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Grayswandir - Is this OR?

message: Is this page still a stub? It seems quite extensive to me. I'd opt for removal of the stub tag. --Bakabaka 21:17, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
