Is Helekanalaith talking about what I think he's talking about?
[edit of previous answer] We'll find out I suppose

Actualy, the possibilities presented here reminded me of a short story Shemeska wrote featuring Larsdona (sp?) and the fate of her children- presumably by Helekanalaith. Between them and the Chechire Fiend, it seems like whatever plan's Helekanalaith may have for Shylara are going to bear interesting fruit.
Helekanalaith had two children. One of them was sacrificed by Larsdana on the Gray Waste, and the other was born into caste as an arcanaloth, and their subsequent fate is unknown. We also know that the Cheshire Fiend is a child of Helekanalaith, but it's uncertain who the mother might be. It's possible that the Cheshire Fiend is the one surviving child between the first two Keepers of the Tower Arcane, but I haven't said for certain.
Part of that is addressed in this storyhour, and it's further addressed in SH2 (Larsdana herself is a semi-recurrent character).
