At this point it hardly matters. Tom Send a noteboard - 10/11/2011 01:15:17 AM
The Demandred identity debates were premised on one of the big secondary characters being revealed to have been Demandred all along, like Talmanes, or Mazrim Taim, or Davrim Bashere (all of whom were contenders at one point or another). The fact that Demandred was hiding as someone who hadn't been "seen" in the books prior to Knife of Dreams, and that he hasn't revealed himself prior to the last book, pretty much makes it irrelevant. Demandred was the gun on the wall that never went off, a major let down in a series of disappointments that have caused this series to slouch to a somewhat predictable and formulaic end.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
