Reborn *POSSIBLE SPOILERS* - t4terrific - 07-18-2005
Maggers Wrote:Hmm..I'm going to have to go back for a "Reborn" refresher. I thought, and my memory is not the greatest, that The Chosen, while appearing as if they were influenced by the Ally or whatever is opposite The Otherness, actually might have been influenced by the Otherness, which for nefarious reasons made the influence look like it was from a benign source.
Am I off the wall here? Very possible....
They were being touched by th Adversary, but interpreted it as though it were The Holy Spirit. Glaeken (Velleur I think) said so in a questioning manner in his thoughts earlier in the book.

Must reread the AC.
I don't think they were really being influenced by The Otherness as much as The One was just too strong for them. They were too stupid and ignorant to any real logical interpretation to carry out any meaningful task. In the end they only served to alert Carol to the forces at work against her child. So, they actually did help The One, but I don't believe it was as The Otherness would have planned. Could be though.
