He still seems to be bonded to Jaine, which means as of so far, the two oaths have not conflicted.     Anyone who's been in the North for any length of time should be able to tell you if he's feeding on the souls of the living, or not.  That kind of thing ought to be obvious to anyone that's observed the state of life and unlife in the North.    How many?  What kinds?  Are you willing to use undead?  Monsters?  He seems sure to offer you at least some, but he won't be picky as to what he sends you if you leave it up to him, probably.    That's a good holding point, but if you have to choose between Big Blue and Tain, which would you choose?  Which one is worse?  Do you need the secret, if he'll destroy them?  Is a better idea to simply ensure that they will be destroyed?    He has already offered that, albeit for the one blade you've "traded" him.    Almost certainly.  Expect him to ask for this, and be prepared to have an alternative that he'll accept on the table.    Almost certainly.  When he was alive, he fought for the right of people born without arcane power to study magic.  He brought a brief renaissance of thought to the kingdom, spoiled by his own fall to darkness, and the fact that he took so many of his students with him when he fell.   Great set of analysis.  Keep it coming. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
