Quote #10
"How are we going to find the person we're looking for if we aren't allowed to say his name?"
asked Tahl."There I can't help you," said Lananeth. (6.114-115)
When Faheel's name causes a commotion in Lananeth's chamber, no one can say his name aloud there anymore. Tahl wonders how they're supposed to find Faheel without the single biggest clue they have to go on, but Lananeth warns them that using a name is just too dangerous—the nature of a name attracts unwanted attention from the powers that be (i.e., the Emperor), and the Emperor wouldn't be happy that strangers are trying to track down a magician he doesn't control. The name is the key to their (lack of) safety.
