questions on the elidhu

**secunda** · September 30th, 2008, 12:42 PM

I have some questions concerning the nature of the elidhu, especially ardina and nyanar. Sorry, i cannot quote, because i read the books in german.
I try to paraphrase.
When Hem is taken back in time to this beautiful place nyanar says there´s nothing that he is not (along those lines). Does this mean hem became part of nyanar at that moment?

How can ardina be the moon avatar and wander free around the world and the "spirit" of a forest, in which role she has to be stationary?

Spoiler:

maybe nyanar said that because hem is in nyanar's place(in den raven i think)...arkan said before that it hurts them to leave their place but still they can go anywhere..maybe ardina can manage to go freely in her forest because she did not recognise that "hurt" thing od arkan.

Ok, i just thought nyanar´s words included hem. Anyway, do the animals living in that place belong to nyanar´s "body"?

i dont think so....but i think that like ardina, the animals in rachia is free...
but ardina just guides them..ohh... i cant explain in whole...
ex: in your house, there is a house of ant... and its like that.
like nyanar, animals are only ants in his house.....
oh i cant explain it

...oh..sorry

ignore my explanaition(sp?) if you like.

don´t worry it makes sense

somehow in the appendix of one of the books there was this remark that at places where once were elidhus many dhillareare (i couldn´t find the two dots above the e on my keyboard) appeared.
I know it´s always about elidhu-blood that is said to flow in many bards` veins. Shall I understand that in a biological way?

I think ardinas freedom has something to do with her trying to cross the gates...

how did she try this?

**Maerad(",)** · October 2nd, 2008, 05:59 AM

i think yeah, when she tried to follow her love(i forgot the name of his lover!)
that's why ardina long for death. And in elemental blood thing: once a story said that a man became inlove with a water sprite. that's why some bards have an elemental blood like in the house of karn(w/c is maerad's family)

I think we should have these questions since Elidhu nearly never talk to humans/bards.... Oh I don't know what I think

i wish i had a better memory...
i looked it up: ardhor was his name
you all have read the singing, i suppose. do you already know what ardina´s interests are in the whole story?

Maerad(",), why should only plants or stones and the like be their body and not animals. If the plants can be part of their body why not animals? And why not humans?
