First, the Please-don't-flame-me disclaimer : I've been afk from the list for a while now, so my apologies if this has been discussed already -- ran a couple of relevant key-word searches, but couldn't find the following discussion if there was one. So...question is below MINORS SPOILERS IN QUESTION BELOW: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Having just re-read SL, I found myself wondering about Piro and Ibronka's career(s) subsequent to Paarfi's final note that they now live somewhere in Adrilanka; it seems to me that both are excellent candidates for the Jhereg. They are, after all, ex-highway men, socially well connected, and have to maintain themselves somehow. (This might also apply to Roaana and the rest of the band, for that matter, save he who joined the Guards) Indeed, it left me asking Why wouldn't they join the Jhereg? Taking this notion to the extreme, I found myself wondering...has Demon's identity been trully sussed? Thoughts? -- For some the fairest thing on this dark earth is Thermopylae, and Spartan phalanxes low'ring lances to die -- after Sappho
