(urth) fifth head owlet- wolf

[Marc Aramini]

Originally the Shadow Children were saying they were from earth, more or less.  After the percentage shifts to a 1 to 1 ratio, they were saying they weren't sure if Sandwalker's people or the Shadow Children were "human".  Did their uncertainty just come because the ratio shifted - I was asking, in other words, if their original claim was more valid than the second claim, that the Old Wise One had made a mistake and Sandwalker was of human stock.

I also agree with Tony's analysis (though I'm not certain Sandwalker is yet part of the Group Norm at this time).

He makes this pretty clear in the passage starting "Now I am half a man..."
