My name is Elena. I joined New Seddleton about a month ago and have truly enjoyed seeing and reading y'all's posts. I am an avid Green Ember fan and am thrilled to be a part of our little fan community!
May y'all's feet find the next stone =)
So I'm a big GE fan so I decided to join! It's great to be here!
My fave GE character is Helmer
My fave book is prolly Ember's End
And I'm a big fan of The Wingfeather Saga as well! I'm also a writer ;)
So what is y'all's hopes for the books that have yet to be published. (I mean the ones we know are coming, Lost Cause and the other Helmer ones) Well, here's mine... (P.S. SPOILERS for LK, LL, and HIDT!!!!)
Let's start with Lost Cause... it comes out in the fall!!!!! I have two things for it. One, Perkinson needs to make an appearance! It would flow into EF so well if he shows up! Also I want him to defeat Challabat, because that would bring up a great reason for Helmer to make Perk a fowler. (Much like Jo with Solus) I'm not saying this because I like Perkinson or anything, but it would be prefect for the story. (actually Perk is my second least favorite rabbit- after Garten)
The other thing is mostly something that confused me in LL. So in Chapter 2, Fiona meets this random buck... Tommin…
It would make sense for Perk to show up during The Lost Cause, at the end at the very least. Whether or not he'll have a big role remains to be seen.
I half wonder if the red sunseeds don't have some kind of stimulating effect. After all, Fiona woke up quite a bit earlier than Tabal Lahc was anticipating.
Sam did a Q&A a while back in which he stated that he hopes to do at least a trilogy of Helmer books. It could be that he'll do more if he has the opportunity. One would hope that he'll touch on some of the moments you mentioned. But there are certainly other plot threads I'm sure Sam wants to hit up, such as those mentioned in the bonus story of The Lost Key.
Okay, I wanna share some trivia with you guys! In a couple weeks I'm hosting a Green Ember trivia at my house with some friends. One type of question is Who said it? questions. The trivia I prepared for my friends is more easy and it's only required to have read the four main books though I do have a couple bonus questions for the side books. Anyway, I want to give you some of the harder ones I've come up with. Basically, Who said it? questions are quotes (or random nonsense) and you have to tell me "Who said it?". Here we go.
1. "You can't take two steps, without running into one."
2. "That's the lazy, unimaginative solution."
3. "Like I always say, I'm behind you all the way. Sadly, I'll be so far behind that it won't help any, but I'm definitely behind you."
4. "But I…
Okay, here are the answers!
1. Cole
2. Helmer
3. Lund
4. Galt
5. Jo
6. Weezie
7. Jo (one of my favorites)
8. Perkinson
9. Whitson (another of my favorites)
10. Aunt Jone
Great job @Kilmarnock228! 9/10! -you didn't have to say what book the quote was in but you did get those all right!
I'm probably gonna post more trivia some time soon! 😉
