  1. From TWoK:

    There are four whom we watch. The first is the surgeon, forced to put aside healing to become a soldier in the most brutal war of our time. The second is the assassin, a murderer who weeps as he kills. The third is the liar, a young woman who wears a scholar’s mantle over the heart of a thief. The last is the highprince, a warlord whose eyes have opened to the past as his thirst for battle wanes.

    From where did you find it?

  2. In WoR Prologue, Jasnah hired assassins. I don't think anyone had imagined such an action from her. So... all sorts of secrets could be hidden in Elhokar's life. Though he is the king, his character hasn't influenced TWoK much. But there were some interesting hints. I think Elhokar's character will develop more in later books.

  3. Most of the differences between gender roles can be taken as cultural quirks. But how did illiteracy in men survive so long? Vorin kingdoms are a back-stabbing lot. So there should be some serious trust issues. After all, men are approving all sorts of documents without knowing what it really contains!
