He really did suffer the worst out of everyone I think and all he gets in return are stumbling letters from someone with no real idea of that. But she does try.
I suspect, though, that if this suggestion were made to J'cor, he would have to deny it. He made his own choice to let Karth fly, knowing he would probably win because of Ulyath's weird flight habits, and from that point on was as culpable as anyone else for letting his ambition outpace his better judgment.
Oh, that's wonderful. I stand with Roa, I think. J'cor had turned, and was walking out, and it was Yevide who spoke to him, and made him turn around, and almost took the choice from him; Karth was in the air before he had the chance to think through what would happen. He did have an instant in which he could have aborted the whole thing, but I'm not sure it would have been fair to have expected any man in his position to do so.
J'cor is, at least, one of the very few people in the whole sordid saga entitled to unsullied grief. I feel for him.

I <3 so very much for this. Poor J'cor. :(

I like that at the peak of his anger he plunges into guilt.
I enjoy the counterpoint of these emotions against (I feel horrible, a little bit anyway, to define it so simply) R'vain's absolute relief.
