Subject: New ECHO excerpt

Diana just posted a new excerpt in response to a question about whether or not Ian still considers himself married to his Mohawk wife, Emily. Message number is 61646.2

http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?msg=61646.2&nav=messages&webtag=ws-books#a2

I didn't peek at this one, so that's all I know. Enjoy!

[> Thanks for the snippet, Karen. So, I guess we can infer that he still considers himself wed to her. There is a Spoiler alert from DG, but didn't we all --those of us who read excerpts, that is-- know this already? -- Lemora, 00:39:46 11/07/08 Fri

[> [> Lemora - I think we all know that Ian still loves Emily - but does he still consider himnself "wed" to her. Wasn't she given to another man??? And there was some sort of "ceremony" indicating that?? Wasn't that more or less wht Ian left the Mohawk?? Because she chose another?? -- GiGi, 10:18:03 11/07/08 Fri

[> [> [> I seem to remember it happened as you tell it. The main reason was Ian and Emily couldn't conceive a child, and he was believed to be the one "at fault", determined by a shaman or someone else important. -- Lemora, 13:11:15 11/07/08 Fri

[> [> [> [> By the old ladies, wasn't it??? Particularly Emily's grandmother??? -- GiGi, 18:03:28 11/07/08 Fri

[> [> [> [> Emily conceived by Ian (more than once??), but lost the babies. Something about her spirit fighting his spirit. -- GiGi, 18:05:07 11/07/08 Fri

[> I remember that the Cherokee women were allowed to choose their husbands, not sure about the Mohawk but I think it was similar…And they could also choose to divorce them as well. Emily was to be wed to another warrior, but after she met Ian…she chose him instead and the “Mothers/Grandmothers” agreed…and the warrior ended up marrying her sister and thus became Ian’s brother-in-law…But, after Ian/Emily’s 1st child died at birth (born premature) and then she continued to have miscarriages, Emily appeared to lose interest/faith in Ian. -- Mitzi, 20:22:10 11/08/08 Sat

[> [> Emily‘s sister was kidnapped by another tribe and her husband “the warrior“ then began to show Ian/Emily that he was still interested in having her to wife and when she started returning his looks/interest….that is when Ian began to think that she did not want him any longer. The Grandmother brought him his belongings and told him to leave and he did (I assumed that Emily was divorcing him and taking the warrior as her new husband)....But he never discussed this with Emily to my knowledge and he never quit loving her either. -- Mitzi, 20:25:29 11/08/08 Sat

[> [> [> The only clue we have about Ian/Emily is that DG has said on Compuserve that Ian has unfinished business with the Mohawks…..and from that statement I think she is talking about Emily’s involvement with “the warrior” and their divorce?? Remember how he said to Bree that he wanted to go back and fight him for her….But, Bree advised him not to go. I don’t think he has ever been satisfied with that decision.
