Ha ha ! Trouvé ! C'est pas dans la Trilogie des Tempêtes, mais dans celle des Vents. Dans Winds of Fury, plus exactement et c'est pas Darkwind qui le dit. (mais je dirai pas qui pour pas briser le punch)
Encore en anglais, désolé.
[spoiler:cyblff9a]:There's no great virtue in being lifebonded, you know. It's a lot like having a Predestined Fate; often uncomfortable, frequently inconvenient, ususally hazardous.:
Skif shook his head [...]. He had often envied Talia and Dirk - how could (prénom secret #1) say something like that? Wasn't being lifebonded the ultimate love?
"I thought lifebonding was something to be sought abose all else," Nyara replied dubiously.
:That's the poets' and Bards' interpretation,: (prénom secret #1) said with a grimace. :It has far more to do with compatibility than with love, and the match is more random than, say - finding two people from different countries with the exact same eye color. When you're lifebonded, your choices are limited to the things you both want, because if your lifebonded is unhappy, so are you. It takes two very strong, well established personalities to make a lifebonded pair work, because if one is passive, he'll be eaten alive by the other.:
"That doesn't sound very pleasant," Skif put in. "In fact it doesn't even sound - romantic. It sounds like a disease."
(prénom secret #1) laughed. :I don't know about a disease, but it isn't love, that's for certain, even though love usually cements the bond. (prénom secret #2) thinks that it's likelier that someone with an extremely powerful Gift of some kind and a tendency to deep depression will be lifebonded than someone who is not so burdened and hag-ridden. That's so the Gifted-and-suicidal half has someone outside of himself to keep him stable and give him an external focus. But - all we know is that while it's rare, it isn't something to yearn after.:
"To think I've envied Talia all this time -" Skif mused. And at (prénom secret #1) puzzled look, he added, "That's the current Queen's Own."
:Of course, the one with all the Empathy! [...] I liked her, though - so, she lifebonded? You shouldn't be too surprised. I'll bet I can describe her lifemate. Strong, kind, toughtful, intelligent, tends to keep his feelings to himself, the kind of man everyone knows they can depend on. Little children and animals love him immediately.:
"That's Dirk!" Skif exclaimed.[/spoiler:cyblff9a]
Nyaeve mon truc pour trouver les références c'est que j'essaie de me rappeler du livre dans lequel il pourrait être, ensuite quel mot qui ne revient pas trop souvent dans l'extrait possible et après je vais sur google et quelqu'un à rentrer les livres anglais en pdf, donc j'écris pour tomber sur ça et après je cherche dans le livre ou trilogie à l'aide du chercheur de mots. :lol: C'est pas vraiment que je suis douée, mais merci quand même. :oops:
