DSC01 Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 I don't have my book in front of me to double-check, but it seems like the articles have some things confused. For one thing, Temoo is listed on Galladon's page as one of his aliases. I'm pretty sure that one belongs to Demoux. In fact, I don't think Temoo and Vao (for Baon) are actually aliases at all. Ishikk thinks that they're using false names, sure, but I believe that they're using their real names with each other. Hoid already knows they're chasing him, and they're on a totally different planet than any of the 3 different worlds they come from. However, because those names are from languages that are unfamiliar to the Purelaker (and the interlude is his POV), we see them written as he hears them. Maybe I'm confused about this, but I really don't think so. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 50/50 chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeiryWriter Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yeah I just double checked this again (though I know I've checked in the past because I thought the same thing when I first noticed it) but the way it reads, to me at least, makes it pretty clear that Baon is addressing Galladon when he says "Temoo". Him addressing Demoux would be a bit of a non-sequitur since he and Galladon are in the middle of an argument. Also Temoo does fit the feel of a Dula name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC01 Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Okay, I just checked it out, and it does make the most sense for him to be responding to Galladon. The only alternative is that he was kind of saying, "And what objection do you have, Demoux?" That is a bit of a stretch, though. It seems very odd, though. Vao and Temoo are exactly how someone might mishear Baon and Demoux. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ninja Yodeler Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) What intetlude is this in? Just wanna re-read it, since I know who Baon is now. Edited November 13, 2015 by The Ninja Yodeler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaa Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 What intetlude is this in? Just wanna re-read it, since I know who Baon is now. Not sure why nobody has answered you, and you've probably discovered it on your own by now anyway, but it's the very first WoK interlude, "Ishikk". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it is them, love the way he slides things into the story so we go crazy over it later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC01 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 It's definitely them. Confirmed by WoB and everything. I just thought it seemed weird that Temoo is Galladon's alias, when it sounds almost exactly like Demoux. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
