| "[ Isgrimnur ] took his supper in an inn partway down the Sancellan Hill, then walked quietly in the Hall of Fountains, something he had not done for many years. He and Gutrun had visited the fountains shortly before their marriage, when they had come to Nabban on a nuptial pilgrimage traditional in Isgrimnur's family." | SOF | Ch.11
p.289 |
It can't have been a very old tradition, since his father Isbeorn was the first Aedonite in the history of the family. |
| "...So you see, Your Sacredness, all that King Elias wishes is your acceptance of one fac: Mother Church's provenance may be men's souls, but she has no right to interfere in the disposition of men's corporeal forms by their legitimate monarch." - Pryrates | SOF | Ch.15
p.363 |
TW must mean "province" not "provenance." [1] American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language |
| "Now they [ Utuk'ku and Ineluki ] are ready to do what they have plotted for so many centuries." - Amerasu | SOF | Ch.28
p.712 |
Since she is speaking less than 500 years after the fall of Asu'a, it is difficult to imagine one of her age seeing that span as so many centuries. |
| "[The Sithi ] were little more than a shimmer of moonlight on metal at first, a distant cloud of silvershine in the darkness." | TGAT | Book 1
Ch.18 p.556 |
Sorry, Tad, even after the Exile, the Sithi wore lacquered wood armor, not metal. |
| "Geloë once was offered a place, but she suggested we give it instead to Faiera of Perdruin" | TWC | Ch.29
p.364? |
Geloë died before the end of the Storm King war. By Lady Faiera's account her parents died after the end of the Storm King War, and only after that did she have the time to truly dive into her interests. It is possible, that Geloë knew about a certain young woman in Perdruin, who was interested in the very topics the League meddled in, but it is very, very unlikely. Plus, by Faiera's own account, it is Josua who contacted her for the first time, who only became a member of the League after his supposed death in the collapse of Green Angel Tower. |
| TGAT | When Eolair and Isorn reach Hernysadharc, Isorn is referred to as "the duke's son" despite Isgrimnur not having been mention in this section. | ||
| TGAT | When Miriamelle and company arrive at Tiamak's house in the Wran, he cooks them pancakes using a cask of flour he had sealed and buried. However, Tiamak had been near starving to death before he left for Perdruin and had only had rice to eat? | ||
| "Benigaris was taller than when he had last seen him, but the duke’s son had then been only seventeen or eighteen. Nearly two decades had passed, …" | TDC | Ch. 22
p. 341 |
Probably a blooper: Though there is no mention of Eolair until later in the book it is very unlikely that a high ranking noble like him (especially one frequently dispatched to the High King on diplomatic mission - see TGAT [part 2, p.88],) was not present at the funeral feast for King John - for which Benigaris was in Erchester as well. They should have met. |
| TDC | In TDC, Isaak is the page of a noble, whose wife is the sister of the mayor of Meremund. In TGAT, he is the page of Fengbald, who is a Duke by now and with all his pride does not seem like the man, who would take in the once page of some lowly noble. | ||
| TDC | According to Jarnauga’s words and the appendix of TDB, the father of Jiriki and Aditu, Shima’onari, is the son of Hakatri. According to all the other books including "Brother's of the Wind" and the "Last King of Osten Ard"-series, Likimeya, the mother of both, is the daughter of Hakatri. Shima’onari is her husband.

| “My eyes are not good at the best of times,” Strangyeard complained. | TGAT Pt. 2 | Ch. 29 | Strangyeard is notable for wearing an eyepatch and would be unlikely to refer to his "eyes". |
| Simon sensed that Pryrates did not so much revel in his ability to crush those who opposed him, as Duke Fengbald and others like him did; rather, the priest used his strength with a kind of thoughtless cruelty, heeding no obstacles between himself and his unknown goals. But whichever was true, it was bullying all the same. | SOF | CH. 12 | Simon thinks of Fengbald as "Duke Fengbald", even though he would not likely know that the man had been promoted from an Earl at this point. |
