[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6885128, member: 7006"] Time in the Realms moves on. Stories and plots happen. You can't expect every single character to remain upright until the end of time. And anyone who doesn't like what is so-called "canon" in the Realms just has to make the choice not to concern themselves with "canon". But as far as Drizzt is concerned... if anyone wants him to stop being such an intricate part of the Realms, all you have to do is convince people to stop buying Bob's books. Like it or not, the books sell. And it's not even like they are being sold to one small segment of the readership... The Crystal Shard is coming up on its 30th Anniversary. Which means these books of Salvatore's are continuing to be sold to readers [i]of all ages[/i], both older and younger. You people here on the boards might not like him, but the character sells. Which means Bob will come up with all manner of stories to place him in, and get the honor to make small changes to the Realms to accommodate that as he sees fit. And if folks don't like it... stop caring about "Realms canon". Cause you're going to be disappointed. [/QUOTE]
