I have always loved these types of contests. Sometimes, contests help draw people back into a forum...
So, I figured... Let's have a thread dedicated to Stephen Lawhead Trivia. The rules are quite simple.
Someone poses a question and people guess the answer. When the person who posed the question declares a winner, that winning person goes on to create their own question.... and so on and so forth....
I'll start out with an easy one from the Song of Albion...
Finish the Prophecy and tell me who spoke it:
"Hear, O Son of Albion: Blood is born of blood, Flesh is born of flesh, But the spirit is born of Spirit, and with Spirit evermore remains. Before Albion is One..."

Well... my only other guess is a flute... If I'm wrong, could you give us a hint?

not a flute either..
a hint, eh? .. hmm.. here's a quote from the book, describing what it sounds like:
"It was like the music of pipes and flute and every rushing wind that I had ever heard."

He's from Ireland...the harp is the national symbol...it can't be a harp.
Is it, perhaps, an organ?
