Atlas333 Posted August 26, 2024 Posted August 26, 2024 Not sure if this has been figured out already but I was rereading the Bands of Mourning and a scene stood out to me that might point to her having the blessing of Awareness. When they're infiltrating the warehouse with the ship, this scene happens Quote Through the hole in the ship's hull, she [Marasi] watched the wall of the warehouse where the rooms were. Irich soon hobbled out of one, then shuffled off and called toward some guards. "What was that he said?" Marasi asked. "He told them to 'Send to Mister suit,'" MeLaan said. (BoM, p 279) If I'm reading this right Marasi and MeLaan are right next to each other but only MeLaan is able to hear what Irish says. Sounds like the blessing of Awareness to me. I'm still doing my reread of Wax and Wayne so I'm not sure if there are any other hints about her blessing but this seems fairly concrete to me. I would love to hear other theories though. 1

It's certainly possible, especially since I don't recall evidence of for any other Blessing type, but remember that Kandra can also increase their senses through shape-shifting. TenSoon does this in HoA to overhear some guards' conversation after escaping from the Homeland, and I find it quite likely he taught it to MeLaan as well, as he's something of a parent to her. This doesn't really disprove she has the Blessing of Awareness, just that there is an alternative explanation. 3
