Maybe this has been discussed, but from wikipedia:
| Quote: | | In more modern literature, Cassandra has often served as a model for tragedy and Romance, and has given rise to the archetypical character of someone whose prophetic insight is obscured by insanity, turning their revelations into riddles or disjointed statements that are not fully comprehended until after the fact. |
Oh shit.

lol
I'm pretty sure we've talked about this on another thread. In any case, I've always been of the opinion that Cassie is short for Cassandra.
Nobody ever listened to poor Cassandra, even though she was always right... |

I was more interested in the fact that her predictions come in riddles that cannot be deduced until after the event has happened... maybe we're destined to lose at this game...

I also watched twjaniak's video post Ti(N)aG and he makes a very good point, the two videos have not riven the story forward. And neither has this third clue. We've got nothing, nada, zip that gives us insight into what is happening.
I'm more depressed about that than anything else, as I suspect the CiW really is unrelated to LG15 and will die out as a consequence.

Oy. Someone's gotta say it. Evan, I'm sorry, bit the piccy in your siggy is just too big not to be obnoxious. Could you post a smaller picture to coincide with your video, or, perhaps, a text link?
Danke.

Yes! Very interesting. I wonder if her name was chosen by LG15 for this reason. |
