    I am going to enclose the rest of the post in the Spoiler tag.. But first I want to say I was reading about Domhnall and reading the descriptions of his gear. I'll just post it verbatim and some thoughts of my own.

    At the end is some of his dialogue to really back up what I'm noticing. It's direct and not speculation highway [well a little]



    • From the Ancient land of Zena
    • Trades in trinkets
    =
    Helm
    A strange helm from the ancient land of Zena,
    birthplace of the curious dealer Domhnall.

    The two horns are believed to symbolize
    wisdom

    =
    Armor
    Strange armor from the ancient land of Zena,
    birthplace of the curious dealer Domhnall.

    The many medals are believed to symbolize
    glory.

    =
    Gauntlets
    Strange gauntlets from the ancient land of
    Zena, birthplace of the curious dealer
    Domhnall.

    The gold bracelets symbolize a vanquisher.
    =
    Boots
    Strange boots from the ancient land of Zena,
    birthplace of the curious dealer Domhnall.

    The inlaid silver rings symbolize an
    explorer.

    =
    Domhnall means World Ruler in Scottish/Gaelic [whatever the right term is]
    Zena means a lot of things but points to 'foreigner', 'life of zeus', and in Scottish/Gaelic [protector of mankind]
    =
    Also if he trades in trinkets... here are the descriptions for the pendant:

    Trinket. No effect, but fond memories comfort travelers.


    A simple pendant with no effect.

    Even so, pleasant memories are crucial
    to survival on arduous journeys.

    =

    Bump. Has nobody found this interesting? It's really the last bit that reveals a lot when put next to the rest of the info.

    No need to spoiler the first post.
    Way back I tried to trade the pendant with him and patches, because of their love for trinkets. The problem is that I don't know how to trade other items than souls with them, if it's possible at all (probably not).
    His "not seeing anything here" response is what he says until you trigger his next dialogue part. I don't know what or where he can 'see', but maybe he looks inside the bottomless box?

    Want to make things even more confusing for yourself, examine the artwork on his armor. Then look at the Crystal set. Look at the medals on his, then the ones on the Channeler's. Then realize what he sells, and let the massive speculation begin.

    As to what you assert I'd disagree, but why I disagree might be a bit of spoilers.

    I was thinking of laying it down next to him and talking to him. Not sure though. My OP was just to get the ideas out there.

    Oh Tolvo.. I know what you mean. You could PM me why you disagree. I might already know and if not you can say anyway.

    No problem, but now I feel bad for spoiling you. You should have discovered it yourself, I just figured you were done. sad

    I always assumed what he "didn't see" were enough souls infront of him. If you buy a whole bunch from him then talk he never says he doesn't "see" anything.

    I always imagined his dialogue as if he had his hand extended to me waiting for some sort of incentive to share any information he had. Like a someone being interrogated by a private eye in a movie or something. Maybe I am taking it too literally.

    I think he talks about kindling and divine weapons in the catacombs if you buy 1 pine resin from him. His other hints (new londo & ash lake) have some other triggers, like defeating a boss or visiting the area in question. I haven't been able to pinpoint what triggers each response.

    As for me, if Manus [a common name meaning the first man] is the father of the abyss,
    Spoiler:

    At a minimum it does make me wonder and I can't go in one direction or the other here.
