The Malazan Fallen discussion

Long enough to justify it's own thread.

The prologue in short is a history of the wall.

Starting with the first story we see more stuff falling from the sky. A reoccurring theme having just come off Toll the Hounds. I'm not sure what the significance it right now but you know that will play back later.

The sea-goddess protecting from the sea-riders who we see have been at it for a long-long time. I was trying to see if I could figure out who see was but not enough hints. I couldn't help but think it would be cool if she played off of Mael in some manner.

Broken circle tattoo is the cult of the Crippled god.........that's new. A former priest of Fenner involved with the Crippled God. I had to wonder at this somehow being tied to Heboric.

Gheven comment about different levels of occupiers was interesting. Perhaps ICE gets a little more of the social aspect of SE in this one.

Mallick Rel the Merciful, LMAO. The victors write the history and all that.

So somebody knows who Graymane is and there appears to be a bounty. That should be interesting. Malazan interests or other? With the Crippled God coming up so much and with Skinner still out there we have a lot of possibilities.

Ironbars on the wall and one of the defenders recognizing his name, interesting.

Scott, great seeing your insight into Stonewielder.

- sea goddess and the "things" falling from the sky are connected, as well as this being the start of the wall. I assumed she is the "Lady" that the current time Korelians pray to in the prologue

- Greymane's bounty and his history finally addressed!!

-Ironbars standing the wall, and for how long!! Sad to see the state he is in, but the punishment he endures and he is still considered Champion of the wall! Those Avowed are beasts!!
