(view spoiler)[Hi there I've been in contact a couple of times in the past love all your books. Have you ever thought that Hearn, Brug and Del could return in an angel form or that the angels could do what they did for Qurrah and bring there lives back maybe even Darius. I'm sure in one of the angels tell Harruq that they were once man or is there any books about the land of Ashurr? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Me and Rob went into this in the Breaking World books that take place during the first Gods' War. The angels were known as Wardens, and were guardians of humanity when the brother gods first made humanity.
As for bringing the characters back: I mean, I could have Ashhur wave his hand and bring back every character who died to life I wanted to. That's the power of being the author of the story, after all. The question for me is if it is satisfying, and if it fits the themes of the story. For the most part, I don't feel like it does. The deaths of those characters impacted *everything*, and I don't want to invalidate any of it. (hide spoiler)]

Hello David. A thought I got while rereading A Dance of Cloaks. How/Why on earth did you come up with that weird and disgusting worm guy?

Hey Mr. Dalglish, I really like Tessanna and her relationship with Quarrah. I was wondering if things would build up to a point where they would adopt a child in the future? Feels kinda right after all the shit they've been through and how much a child meant to them don't you think? (unless ofcourse they suffer a horribly grotesque death which seems unfortunately rather common in Dezrel :D)
