Interview #769: Elantris Annotations, Entry #98

Brandon Sanderson

Another big nod of thanks goes out to my thesis committee for their suggestion regarding this chapter. I’m not sure how I missed it, but in the original drafts, Raoden and company never acknowledge the fact that Hrathen had been healed. They never even mentioned it, and they certainly didn’t give their thoughts on why it happened.

The fix was an easy one—you can read it in a few paragraphs in this chapter. However, the fact that it hadn’t been there before was indeed a problem. Moshe was dumbfounded when I mentioned the oversight to him.

So, thanks Sally, Dennis, and John. You saved me from some embarrassment.

I like the explanation that Raoden gives here for Hrathen’s healing. It seems like it would make sense to the Elantrians, and it saves me from having them suspect what was really going on.
