The next Mighty???

I think that Love is Ashe's girlfriend at the end of Destroyer. And I don't think that she is Reah (although that would be cool). I think that Reah is Kifirin's Tears, which I think will be a big enough job.

think about what the girl in front of Wlodek said mostly the last part. now why would Wlodek call anybody love? could the Mighty Heart be Fox?

Well, Ashe had a big enough job as the rebuilder, none of the protagonist characters have one job or title or impossible task. I commented on another thread, I believe the mighty are born into specific races to solve more than one issue.

Last I believe Kifirin's tears are just that, him crying. I think it will be what brings Reah back, directly or indirectly.

Remember it's the mighty heart, I think the Love comments are completely unrelated and Reah is not her.

I am probably wrong, but its fun to speculate with you all.

1) Compare Reah's "powers" vs. the known Mighty (Ashe).
Reah developed none before 19.
Ashe developed significant powers at 12.
2) What brought on the powers? Apparently stress.
Reah was physically and mentally abused and had bones broken - I think that qualifies as stress.
Ashe was the victim of bullying and threatened with going to a human school.

I think Reah's stress level was just a wee bit higher.

3) Calling volcanoes - nice power but a Ra'Ak (any one of them) can single handed destroy a whole world. Sorry not up to the level of a Mighty.

4) Heal a planetary core - On par with the Larentii she just does not have the "no interference" rule to sneak around.

Not to put Reah down, I love her character but currently it would take more than I see to convince me she is a Mighty. Ashe I was pretty sure he was the Mighty hand by the 3rd book in the series.

Yeah yeah

All good points, but I am sticking with my feeling.

Reah never uses power to defend herself, everything has been a result of protecting other people. Yes she is 25 now, but she never tried to pull a stars power until she felt empathy and sadness of connecting to sick, dying planet and she came up with the idea. I don't think she lacks the power, just the knowledge of it, and she won't seek more until she needs it to defend someone else.

I bet your shaking your head... LOL.

Mighty heart sounds more like a protector to me, Ashe had no choice but to reach as hard as he could because he was surrounded by people trying to control, kill or betray with the exception of family, Winkler and his handful of friends.. He also had the benefit of a list of powers and the ability to see his own future to figure out his powers.

Who knows what power will answer if Reah truly needed to call it. Don't forget we are only half way through her series, who knows what powers will turn up in the second half.

I never asked you to change your opinion =p ... my response was more towards FrazzledHaloz but I stand by it.

I could argue about not being able to help anyone if you are dead ... but Connie beat me to it ... (I get the feeling I am going to hear about that one ).

But seriously at this point I don't agree that Reah is one of the Mighty ... I could be wrong and it would not be the first time (or last) lol.
