Do you like/dislike the winterking,Arkan? (spoilers for the riddle)

**Ashe** · August 27th, 2008, 09:13 AM

Anyway, I think he does have a tendency to be a bit over-emotional.

As my friend would say, he needs manger anagement.

**Bree** · August 28th, 2008, 11:24 AM

He is over-emotional.

**Ashe** · August 28th, 2008, 03:12 PM

He's always reminding people that snow has feelings, too. That's a bit weird, since it doesn't.

**Bree** · August 28th, 2008, 04:03 PM

I know. What's with his whole "Elednor!! Elednor! I shall give thee frozen flowers!" or whatever.
Pfft. Cadders would give her real flowers!

**Sirkana** · August 29th, 2008, 04:36 AM

He reminds me of the Wintersmith in the book of that name by Terry Pratchett, which I am reading at the moment.

**Ashe** · August 29th, 2008, 10:36 AM

Lol, Bree.

"Look, Elednor! It's shiiinyyy!" *Points to diamond*

**Bree** · August 30th, 2008, 06:10 AM

Hehe.
He's so cold.

He could never comfort her when she was upset. *shakes head*

**Becky303** · September 6th, 2008, 09:46 PM

Hi I'm Becky and am new to the cite. I just finished the crow. I'm not too sure about Arkan, he's really cold and hasn't been that nice he gets pissed off easily too. But thats just my opinion.

**kiaga89** · September 7th, 2008, 01:05 AM

hey becky! why don't you go introduce yourself on the introduce yourself thread?

**kiaga89** · September 7th, 2008, 01:06 AM

whoops! i double posted!

If i didn't have the image of the balding Arkan stuck in my head from the cover on the Riddle, I think i would imagine him handsome, by all the things we've been told in the books

**Becky303** · September 7th, 2008, 04:00 PM

Lol, I totally agree!!

**Sadie1787** · September 23rd, 2008, 06:56 PM

Me too, but even then I would not like him because

1 He tried to kill Cadders.

2 He killed Dharin(sp?) sorry can't remeber the spelling.

3 Kidnaps Maerad

4 Over emotional

5 He is always takling about snow... well I let that one go since he is the Winter King, but really.

6 How he starts talking about how he "loves" Maerad, when he in prisons her.

I could go on but I think you all think I'm crazy already.

I do like the charater though ,I think he is good for the story but I wouldldn't want to meet him.. well maybe I would but, I'M CONFUSED NOW.

I used a lot of buts

**roberth** · September 24th, 2008, 06:00 AM

Well, yeah, but what youve got to remember is that (SINGING SPOILER)

Spoiler:

In the singing he was the one who helped Maerad unlock her Elidhu powers properly, and basically saved Innail

**kiaga89** · September 24th, 2008, 01:33 PM

true, however (Singing spoiler):

Spoiler:

if you think about it, he probably did it for his own benefit, realizing that if he didn't help her, she would probably die and he wouldn't get his treesong back. I think he had his own motives behind helping her. Perhaps it was him being good, but I also suspect that he did it for himself and the other elidhu you know?

**Stenny** · September 24th, 2008, 02:53 PM

I've loved him since we first met him!
I dunno, maybe I have a thing for the cold, emotional type of guy! Or maybe it's a power thing!

Spoiler for Singing (hope this works, sorry if it don't, i will delete it quickly if it doesn't!!!! Never done spoiler before lol)

Spoiler:

I don't think he helped her just because he needed her, i think he did genuinely care for her. He helped her, wheras Ardina didn't. She told her something about not being a teacher, so she would have to learn for herself
