Was there a specific reason Lord Tower took in Rune rather than someone else? Or was he the only one willing/ the only one to offer?
Hello!! So here a small number of my lingering questions:1. Was Rune an only child (other than Brand) before the Sun Throne's fall?
2. Since this subject may not come up again: The initial raid probably didn't include provisions for the bomb Lady Lovers set off. But the raid did knock people unconscious. So what happened to the servers & 'regular folks' at the Lovers Estate? Did most of them die? Did the entire estate blow up, or just the "science research" wing?
3. 'Tallas' seem to be somewhat rare. But is it possible for someone to have more than 1 talla? There's been mention of group marriage. Will we meet any of these groups? Do they have a name for it?
4. Will we learn anything about Rune's Mom? We don't really know much about either parent, but his Mom hasn't been mentioned at all so far.
1. They haven't mentioned any other children but they haven't explicitly said that Rune was an only child. 3. I love the idea of multiple Tallas. Rune seems to think he can't have one and I'm interested in why he thinks that? Is it some sort of guilt from his attack? His Brand his idea of a Tallas?
4. Rune's mom died when he was a baby but I don't remember learning how.
3. I love the idea of multiple Tallas. Rune seems to think he can't have one and I'm int..."I'm not sure if he thinks he can't have one, or if he's sure it isn't Addam. There seems to be some mysterious implication that he might already know who it is.
@F Rune does have a couple of comments that make it seem like he KNOWS he can't have one. But what Rune thinks he knows and what is actually the case may not be the same thing. So...@Jay I think you're right about his mom, but also not sure where that comes up. But my questions were about where does her family fall in the court. There's Lord Sun but the Hanged Man was happy collecting kids from various courts. So there is court cross-over and probably marital (note, not martial :D ) alliances. That's where my wonderings were focused. I can't help but wonder what the relationship between Lord Tower and Lord Sun was. Also, what is the etiquette of addressing the spouse of an Arcana-- Lady Sun, Madame Saint John? lol
When it comes to Rune and tallas, my current theory/ fear isn't that he can't have one, it's that he met them the night of the attack (since they can be enemies)

I didn't want to speak it into reality, but that's exactly how I felt, too. Sort of, "I know it isn't Addam because I have already had that unfortunate experience." Poor baby.

So...You might be very right and I am keeping my options open. My reasoning was the sadness in his words as if he were hiding something very sad and undeniable.
