I'm just now getting around to this thread, and haven't even gotten past page 1, so I know I'm late to some of these posts, but I wanted to comment on this:
Umbran, I've been reading those books for more than 20 years, and I've thought about so many aspects of the stories over the years, but that's one of the most beautifully elegant distillations of the struggle at the Sammath Naur I've ever heard!
Excellent words!
Thanks,

Umbran said:That last struggle is epic, but not Big Magic, greywindyshadow world epic. It's the epic struggle of two very small, very worn people over a tiny little thing, seen by one other very small person. And the fate of the world hinges on it. I like it that way.
