I started asking him about the two conflicting chats [regarding Thom’s knives and the scene with the Mryddraal at Whitebridge in The Eye of the World ]. The question was already sent to him, but he declined to answer it for the question and answer session. I was wondering about why he would do it, but as you might guess when reading his answer. It’s because it’s a RAFO question.
Both answers on the chat are RIGHT!!!! He knows exactly how Thom managed to escape with only a limp and how he managed to survive that. But he might use it in the next book and doesn’t want to give away anything. So we have to do it with the knowledge that both answers, although seemingly conflicting, are both CORRECT.
