Don't know why, but Boat is the first thing to come to mind when read Imp's post.
Since ADwD is last of the books I read, only characters connected to boats are Victarion, but he would never think something like that, Tyrion, but when reconsider he did not pick the boat, Dany's commander of Fleet-that-doesn't-exist (don't know his name), and Quentin Martell, and now I'm almost certain he is the one in question.
Yes, your, turn, and I also apologize for my lousy typingMy turn?
I have a hole where my heart should be . . . and nowhere else to go.
