That makes sense. If she could cross the waters when Annie was around, how stuck is she?

Well, with Annie around, nothing's ever the way it should be. Who knows? Maybe she leeched some of Annie's... power.

Whatever put the Sword Girl beyond the Guides' reach must have been more severe than Martin losing his way, otherwise the Guides would have just found a medium to sort it out. Or maybe she got "stuck" on this side of the aether because the Guides couldn't find a medium quickly enough? How Sword Girl crossed the river is another whole can of worms. So many questions... |

Maybe the last medium who tried ran into... complications.
Perhaps the Sword Girl is malevolent? Or maybe another force (Wolf boy, Coyote... hell, maybe even Eglamore) stopped them?

But there's a difference between the boy and the ghost: Annie amplified the ghost's powers, but she dissipated the boy's.

On the other hand, the kid seemed to re-live the fire pretty intensively when Annie was around. Maybe if she had hugged Ghost Lady, things would have been different. But all in all I think the ghost lady is more than just a soul in limbo. Perhaps she is even the direct opposite of the psychopomps: where Muut and his pals guide the dead to the Aether, Ghost Lady may guide them somewhere where there's grinding of teeth and stuff. |

I think the ghost lady hasn't really crossed the river, it wasn't real.

It also raises once more the question: when Muut said "So much anger", was he talking about Annie (referring presumably to her response to the death of her mother), or the Ghost Girl with a Sword? If she's trapped, she'd have reason to be angry too.

I think that Muut was referring to Annie, is very clear that Annie doesn't want to hang around Muut too much (cause she is mad they took her mom away)... that also makes me wonder about what she said today about Dhoo words... she seems almost a little mad(?)... I mean she says "consolation" like a "yeah right, I don't give a Q$##"$% about your consolation" I don't know what to think about Ghost Lady with Sword; she doesn't seem as "lost soul" to me, also she was able to hurt Annie (although in a "spiritual" [sorry. struggling to find a word] sort of way, which it DID HAPPEN cause when she next sees Zimmy, she can see the cut), whereas the fire the boy projected didn't affect Annie. Multiple possibilities arise: 1. She was a normal soul, but got stuck for so long that something happened to her. 2. It's a rogue Guide!!! Screw the system!!! 3. something that I cannot guess at present time I think that cover it all  |

Martin was stuck because he didn't realize he was dead. What if she chose to be left behind? Maybe a vengeful spirit, one one with a resolve so strong that it can affect the reality?

Mort and Martin are both very young and harmless spirits, therefore it is safe to assume that their powers are among the least of their kind.

Hey, I think Mort powers are more than enough... he can completely alter reality!!!!

This would be my best guess. Also, I can't get over the fact that the ghost was able to physically hurt Annie. As a general rule of thumb, spirits can't harm the living, merely scare them (as displayed by Mort, although I doubt he'd hurt someone given the chance). Also, even when Annie was completely surrounded by Martin's flames, she remained untouched. So there must be something we're missing about the White Lady. |

But there's a difference between the boy and the ghost: Annie amplified the ghost's powers, but she dissipated the boy's. Are you referring to Sword Girl's unexplained appearance on Annie's side of the river? That could have been the blinker stone. Annie thought about fire, and the stone summoned fire; maybe she thought about the Sword Girl and that summoned her. It also raises once more the question: when Muut said "So much anger", was he talking about Annie (referring presumably to her response to the death of her mother), or the Ghost Girl with a Sword? If she's trapped, she'd have reason to be angry too. Muut said, "Antimony... may you fare well." Annie said nothing and turned away from him. Though we can't see where he's looking, his body was still facing towards Annie as he said, "Still such anger..." I'm fairly certain he was talking about Miss Carver. |

Annie thought about fire, and the stone summoned fire; maybe she thought about the Sword Girl and that summoned her. That must be the main purpose of the blinker stone: to summon. After all, the only other time we've seen it in use was to "summon" Coyote and Ysen. (As seen here). Wow, I feel slow XD |

I actually think the stone manifests whatever you want it to. But you need to be thinking of using it and of what you want to use it for. I doubt it follows any and all thoughts just willy nilly.
and remember, Annie is only talking about it. She just might be completely wrong. We still have no idea what the White Lady truly is.
