He has a talent for that, yes. And a good read on people, which is why he encouraged me to speak with you.
[ Istredd never spoke outwardly about his own dislike of Ambrose, but he privately did to the other Summoned. He saw the value in having his appreciation, but he won't miss his arrogance and callousness. It's hard to say so far if Mace is made from the same mold, but it's unlikely. Already he's coming off differently. Istredd's used to people like Ambrose. Mace is an unknown. ]
I've gone to the Singularity during the Dimming twice now, we've brought a casket on behalf of Thorne during those trips.
[ So it wasn't only his own drive, but they did a task for Ambrose in the process. Istredd doesn't know how secretive Ambrose was about all of that, so he'll just outright tell Mace the truth. ]
The purpose of the soil was to see if there was a difference magically or scientifically about the space surrounding the Singularity compared to, say, outside. But the findings were that no, it's the same, so the crater itself is not the unique aspect.
[ Perhaps getting a firm no about a theory would put someone else off, but not Istredd. He likes to cross options off his list so he can get closer to an answer. The crater is not special, it's just the Singularity's location. ]
If I may ask, what is your opinion on the Singularity?
