I was not expecting more than your typical MMORPG level of storyline, and was not disappointed.

It isn't classic literature. It isn't post-modern lit. It isn't The Circus of Dr. Lao, Dianetics, the Song of Songs, Pride and Prejudice, nor the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. I think Shakespeare might have appreciated the level of irony in the story, and Charles Dickens the level of pathos in the story. Then again, I really enjoyed reading John Crowley's Aegypt before it got retitled, and Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum.

A simple explanation about why tethering will never restore the full Warrior of Light/Azem: at least one part of that soul is gone forever thanks to the stupidity of the Unsundered. Or is it?
I'm getting tired of saying this.

The point was the echo, not my explanation on how to achieve it. I pulled that one out my ass in the moment yet everyone keep being fixated on it.
