The Narn may lead you to believe that Turin was on the cusp of insanity if not completely insane. The question is which text to you take as truth?

I take the Narn as more truthful, as it is a more in-depth story of the tale of Turin, and in many cases his feelings during several events are more clearly shown; whereas Turin's story in Silm is more brief and does not (and is not intended to) show it in the detail that the Narn does.
However, I feel that even in Silm his insanity towards the end is shown: he "laughed like one fey" and when he ran off the others "wondered what madness had taken him" (or something like that - I don't have Silm to hand [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])

I think that he probably got a perverse sort of amusement from "watching" what happened to Turin. It almost seems like a soap opera.
