[Mark M, of Verra & Vlad] #>I think she's his mother. [MJ] #I think that anyone looking at Adron e'Kieron and then settling on #Vlad's daddy is just plain weird, even if she IS a Demon Goddess. #It would be like dating Steve Jobs [1] and then moving on to my #cousin Benjamin. Just. Plain. Weird. She's not in it for love, cuddles, lust, or a good time. She has a long history of hatred for the Jenoine and has long-ranging Plans, and doesn't hesitate to manipulate people and kingdoms in trying to achieve them. And she tells us she's not human (in either sense, presumably) and never was, and even if she had been, the changes she's been through in becoming a god would have made her no longer human. And you think "weird" is a problem here? -- Mark A. Mandel http://world.std.com/~mam/Cracks-and-Shards/ a Steven Brust Dragaera fan website
