: And here I go, breaking my vow not to answer... :)
: Let's see, the sentence is, "It could be that Shiver
: and she are the same, Shiver was on her second and
: third lives in Balor's and Soulblighter's wars
: respectively, and the last Fallen Lord has yet to be
: revealed!" Now I haven't yet taken Rhetoric 1B,
: but I don't see any grammatically valid way of parsing
: this that doesn't take "It could be that" as
: modifying everything else in the sentence. Neither
: Shiver's identity with Ravanna nor the existence of
: another Fallen Lord are definitely asserted.
For some reason I was thinking that those commas were semicolons. You're right. I wish someone had pointed this out two weeks ago when I based an arguement on it.
BTW, the real problem I have with your theory is it lacks a motive for the Ravanna. Why would she want to pretend to be Shiver? Why wouldn't Soulblighter be able to capture the real Shiver's spirit?
