I'm a big DnD nerd so i always think of Netheril style floating castles built on upside down chopped-off mountain tops, and i know Mr Brust played DnD once upon a time.... but I dont know if thats what he had in mind or anything. I did a little investigating and Vlad describes teleporting to the center of the courtyard of Castle Black (forgot to write page number down:o( ), but if you're a floating Castle, how do you have a courtyard? I also SEEM to recall a description of him landing in the 'courtyard' and seeing nothing below his feet, but feeling a 'ground' beneath him as he walked, which kindof throws my Netheril idea out the window. Then theres the part of me that thinks there are things in the 'courtyard', like floating pillars or something, that sortof dilineate a path to walk or what a real courtyard might look like if there was a ground..... but maybe i just always thought there should be, and there arent. who knows? -carol the nutter --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
