yeah, isn't that how the "deathgates" work? Shadow spawn can't survive being touched by the O.P. So when they pass through a gateway it kills them. Tollocs check in but they don't check out.
well, IIRC the deathgates mostly work on the principle that the gateway edges are extremely sharp, and that's the reason they open and close and they have not a round shape: that way, no one would survive a deathgate. The fact that shadowspawn can't pass through them is just a "plus".

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM*

Why would them not being able to survive a gateway be a problem?

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack?

Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot.

Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred

Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny

The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now)

I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London?

That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using.

It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place)

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house.

I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition.
