Also Kat--GREAT sleuthing with that last bit. Some right, some wrong, but definitely not far from the right track!

True blood stirs, hidden by betrayal,
A single chance for Forest King’s last daughter:
Win the throne or face Covenant fulfilled,
A deal in blood, rising with Darkness’ Mistress.
This is the blood deal that Kat is referring to. The Covenent/deal in blood are obviously referring to the same thing, whatever that may be.

Testing, Testing
I've attached a text file to this post, partially as a test for Kat, but also as a gift to the mystery solvers out there.
Kat and Gertie have both made excellent progress in fathoming certain parts of the prophecy. The txt file is an msn conversation between Gertie and myself on the subject that is at least partially illuminating.

test... I hate these....The_Universe said:
Got it fine, just had to go through and change stuff so I could understand the flow of conversation better One question did you leave some spots out or did you hit enter with nothing there?? (about line 125 is one occurrence)Interesting.... very interesting... and answers more questions that we had huge holes for and asks questions I hadn't thought of (Go Gerti)!!!
I need to read it some more and cut out some stuff (like the french label discussion and Kennon being president of RHA Pres.)

I've started comparing the prophecies based on theme, and I've been adding other bits of info based on the historical knowledge we have. So far, I've only done the Spirit Blades, and Mordred the Black. Next up are Tain Hawkson and The Forest King's Last Daughter.
It looks like we could have several of the last daughters.

Good job, Gertie. Thanks for trying to make sense of all of this!

"i pooped a hammer"
so Oberon's last daughter is really, Oberon's last daughter standing when it's all said and done.
anyway, i've been reading the prophecies and communions and this is my take...
Tain wants power.
Tain makes deal (with who?)
Tain gets to be king.
Tain gets a brand new soul(maybe in place of his existing or maybe confliciting)
Tain names his new soul Mordred
Neo-Tain, or Mordred if you will, sets events into motion to bring about the rise of Tiamat.
Neo-Tain needs Spiritblades to do this.
so, Neo-Tain + Spiritblades = Tiamat wakey wakied.
the Circle of the Phoenix = prophomisified heroes who may or may not triumph over darkness.
anyway, that is what my simple brain has reduced it to. help me out if i missed anything but have pitty on the slow one.

Good thoughts, but the evidence would seem to suggest that Tain could have been King without making the deal that he has obviously made with someone or something--he was/is a legitimate heir to the throne, with enough access to muscle within the kingdom that he didn't need to bring in any of *these* baddies to make that a reality.
However, the deal has apparently accorded him a little more power, and a slightly different mindset, as merely ruling the known world is apparently not enough. His motivation has got to be something *more* than being King...he had already ruled for seven years before the first draconids reared its ugly head. Whatever he's doing has to be something *more*....something that will not only motivate the man that was Tain, but also the person/thing he made a deal with, and thus motivate the man he has *become.*
But Mik's analysis certainly doesn't have anything wrong with it.
