: Much less likely. It relies too much on speculation

: Besides, how likely is it she could fool Soullblighter?
: He was probably a more powerful sorceror than she was
: by Myth II.

Ravanna was apparently very good at concealing her true nature and intent, baffling even Balor. I think she could easily fool Soulblighter, at least for a brief time.

I dunno whether Occam applies here...the Shiver=Ravanna theory leaves a lot of unanswered questions as well. Like, why does she (unlike any other Fallen Lord except the Leveller himself) have two proper names, Ravanna and Culwyeh? How did the Voiceless One die during the Great War (she must have appeared during that time in both her Shiver incarnation and her Voiceless incarnation, since the Light thought they were two separate beings), when the Light hadn't managed to defeat any Fallen Lord before Rabican killed her a second time as Shiver? Why didn't she remember the Whisper Dream or her other powerful spells when Soulblighter revived her? I'm not saying that my theory is definitely more likely to be true, just that neither can be ruled out at the moment.
