The Mahdoubt's Gown

"Covenant wondered if he would ever hear the Giant laugh again.

Sourly, he reached a hand up to get his staff from Dura's saddle, and noticed for the first time what Morinmoss had done to his white robe. It was spattered and latticed with dark green stains - the markings of the moss.

The stains offended him. With a scowl, he looked around the company. The other riders must have been more adept at dodging; they showed none of the green signature of the moss. Lord Mhoram was the only exception; each shoulder of his robe bore a dark stripe like an insignia."

LFB, right where Covenant mentions the marks on himself.

Thank you. So...the Land itself is marking them as uniquely special and/or hinting at their destinies.

You're very welcome Smile

Actually, I have to thank you and the other people in this thread, and much - I intended to link or quote a piece of a song parody to this, wayfriend gave a good sample Smile

Only to find out that apparently I failed to post that one to start with, probably due to thinking that I've done it Laughing

So much for good memory and keeping in mind a single a line from LFB nobody remembered Big Grin

So very large thanks to everyone here again, now it's going to its rightful place kevinswatch.ihugny.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=939746#939746 I can repost it here if that's more convenient Smile

The reason this reminded me of that song - I had such a thought on this - if the reasons are similar, perhaps the fact that Mhoram received the marks can help to understand the other two better. And it's not just that the person is important or special, Foamy was with TC and Mhoram then.

It might be related to the Wild magic, Mhoram did have more understanding about it than even TC himself then. And this might be pretty much the same thing in the essence - the connection that feels best for me is that all of them find the ability to stand in the eye of the paradox, to find the hope in contradiction.
