Arzosah

edit

The article says "Her true name, Arzosah Sothy Lorezohas, is inscribed on a ring which gives its owner the power to command her. Compelled by the power of her true name, she assisted in the defence of Cengarn. Rhodry and she become friends, and he gives her the ring at the end of "Days of Blood and Fire", freeing her."

is that right? It's too long since I've read the books to remember, but I thought the only reason the name was on the ring was because it was Evander's idea of a riddle. The ring itself doesn't have anything to do with being able to compell her - all that is needed is the knowledge of her true name, and the ring was just a means of discovering that name. (And Rhodry gave her the ring so no one else would be able to discover her name). I hope someone else can clarify on this, because I don't really have time to read through all the books again to check! 176.252.54.26 (talk) 22:43, 24 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

I chose to use a blog source because it has several links on it to primary sources relevant to the preceding statement that classical sources viewed the celts as believing in reincarnation. A statemnt that appears in a Wikipedia article od Celtic beliefs (although with disputed sources). If I find a better, secondary source, I’ll use that.

Oh, and btw it’s not my blog/ Journal of Celtic Studies. I’m a Buddhist and got intrigued by whether the Celts believed in reincarnation too. ;-) Dakinijones (talk) 21:36, 21 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
