On the assumption that most people wouldn't want to pretend that they just got turned into a teckla. nor that Dragaeran authors usually kill off their heroes that way - does that passage mean that there's been a Dzurlord who has managed to win against Sethra (history) [1]? Or is it simply the usual way Dragaeran authors show their (fictional) Dzurlord as being the Greatest Dzur Hero Ever!? Karen [1] Ie, is Sethra the kind of undead that you can only manage to kill for a short time before they reform, and her 'merging with the stone of Dzur Mountain' isn't quite as voluntary as I'd been thinking?
