Well.  I bow to you, for I believe you have found a significant
connexion here.

In addition, I note that Morrolan, like another certain character,
woke up (as it were) not knowing who he really was, in several

I am afraid that here, I cannot agree.  Benedict is the General Who
Never Dies, and thus, you perceive, for reasons perhaps best known to
himself, has undergone a sex-change and become Sethra Lavode.

Is Sethra Lavode glompable?
