However, have >> any of you seen any asexual characters. > An'desha kind of struck me as being asexual as the Storms progressed. Granted, he was involved with Firesong in SWarning, but by SRising & SBreaking (not a spoiler), he gets more mystic and looks more to the Moonpaths and the Star-Eyed for comfort and understanding. IMHO, it seems if Ad'desha is trying to find his niche in the world, and as he does so, he doesn't seem to need or want any intimate relationships.

When I was in high school (Ames High aims High) (rah) I dated a very neat lady who had a poster about 3 or 4 feet high and 6 wide of the pictures from the covers of paperback editions "Lord of the Rings" placed side by side. (the covers from the ballentine editions of the late '60s early '70s)("This paberback edition, and no other, has....") It was so cool and, other than the one June had, I've never seen a poster like this. Havn't seen June in nearly 20 years either 8-{(# a n d n o w f o r a l i t t l e s p o i l e d s p a c e I was so happy to find out more about the founding of Valdemar in SB. At least Misty is giving us some hints about it, even if she won't right the books we all want !!!!!<-ob# David Tiffany, Golt tt Opypots ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Dec 1996 17:40:51 -0500 From: Chris & Sean Talbot To: mercedes-lackey-+AT+-herald.co.uk Subject: Re: [[[[[[[[HUG]]]]]]]] for all list members Message-ID: <199612202240.RAA12487-+AT+-nemesis.idirect.com> At 08:40 PM 12/20/96 GMT, you wrote: >The support and love I've received from all of you is incredible and I >want to thank all of you for your well-wishing.

I've finally finished all my exams! Love you all! May you find love in this and all other times of the year. :) ***** Do you remember how we were whining about not having any ordinary people? Well, I just got _Sword of Ice_ (yes, it just came into the bookstore Thursday night, and the nice clerk-type person (to whom I was very nice, Jake!) went and looked in the boxes for it, so I got to read some new Valdemar these past two days-- I'm happy)... and there are stories about OP in there! That's all the spoiler I'll make, though... I'm not gonna say what their situations are, but they're there. ***** Guess what? The same bookstore has had SB for a while... do you know why I couldn't see it? Because it was hiding behind the SR they had face out. Argh! Anyway, I looked at the cover for the squid, and I have something to point out. It's not a squid! Squid's don't have suckers! It's an octopus! Sheesh! Get it right, folks! By the way, I won't be able to read any responses to this, because I'm sending out my postpone command in the same batch with this letter, so...
