Yeeeeah... Etzel Send a noteboard - 27/01/2010 04:35:03 PM
I know, it isn't impossible that there are two different Queen Ethenielles quite close together.

However, I think it makes more sense that it was rather RJ's intention to mention a familiar character in the introduction of SaSG to make it possible for the readers to approximately place the writing of SaSG at the time of the beginning of the series or a few years before. Plus, also in the WoT roleplaying game, which IIRC was supervised by RJ, "Ethenielle Kirukon Materasu" is mentioned as the name for the current Queen of Kandor.

If there is a mistake, it's rather in the Guide, because it came out earlier. Maybe RJ even wanted to change her name to link it better to the beautiful soldier queen of the Trolloc Wars Kirukan, whose ancient Sword of Kirukan is one of Ethenielle's regalia.

Until Ethenielle dies or is deposed, you cannot claim this has been written yet, much less published - 27/01/2010 03:05:49 AM 519 Views

I would say it's probably a mistake in the Guide - 27/01/2010 03:31:14 PM 440 Views
Elayne was named after the grandmother of the High Seat of another House. And what about Henry VIII? - 27/01/2010 04:16:17 PM 364 Views
