[@TheMadAsshatter] Yep, I asked Eru about rejoining us a month ago to make this twist work. 
I remember in Tahlia's post about her suspecting what happened to Benji and Rend, and she assumed Rend could just as well be dead. To which she wouldn't care if he was. That's when I thought, 'What if he isn't dead. What if he is very much alive and breathing?' 

Anyways, hey you, [@Deserted]! 
Wait up! Wait a minute! O_O 
Did Echo just stand behind the empty sixth throne? O_O
You have NO idea what that means, but...

Owen's little pissy fit compares no insult to what she just DID. 

So I am going to again one more time,
did she just stand behind the empty sixth throne?
