Re: Thoughts(Farseer Spoilers)

that's right. although it was normal for Molly to find another man--thinking as she did that Fitz was dead and gone--she turned to her caretaker in too short a time period in my opinion. pregnant women need several months before losing the mood swings and blues that come with childbirth, nevermind having the time to feel sexy. comparing her feelings to those of the Fool, who never stopped loving Fitz in his/her way she comes up short. (just look at what the Fool endured for Fitz fer cryin out loud--a regular customer for torture!--and his/her final act of love in the Tawny man was imo the hardest sacrifice)
i don't mean Molly didn't have any feelings, only that they were not fairytale material. and actually that's Hobb's greatest achievement, bringing life-like people and flawed emotions in a fairytale setting.
