Vasic...

I finally got around to reading Tangle of Need and I had a thought about Vasic's "brain."

It is mentioned that he is "damaged" and basically plans to kill himself. Why can't Noor and Aishya's son (can't remember his name now) heal him? I can't think that Nalini would introduce such a powerful, well power, and not use it again in the series? I think it would be awesome if kids could save an Arrow.

Just a thought...

I don't think the problems with his brain are physiological. I think he's *deeply* depressed and in need of an empath.

I seem to remember it being said jax had ruined his brain. Maybe a combo of the 2?

You may be right.

I think it's confirmed in Tangle of Need that Jax had no long term affect on Vasic's brain, because he wasn't on it for long enough. That's how I interpreted the following scene anyway.

Tangle of Need, p.396-397: "Vasic hadn't been on Jax anywhere near as long as Patton, and so, in spite of what many believed, he could still think for himself. Jax might create perfect soldiers, but it also eventually numbed the minds of those soldiers. Vasic's mind remained razor sharp, his abilities honed to a lethal edge- after all, as a Traveler, he was part of the Designation Tk, teleportation not his only skill."

me too

you too, what?

I think she means she interpreted the scene in the same way I did??

Yup, sorry, must learn to explain myself better
