Thumbs up

Good, it was Grishnįkh.

It was all about this moment:

Quote:
"Maggots!" jeered the Isengarders. "You're cooked. The Whiteskins will catch you and eat you. They're coming!"
A cry from Grishnįkh showed that this was not mere jest.
So, taking all of it literally: we are told (by the Isengarders) that the mountain-maggots are cooked. Grishnįkh is not one of them, so he is not cooked, of course. But he is the one who points out that the horsemen are indeed approaching, which would mean (again, if we trust the Isengarders) that they'll catch them and eat them.

It was a little bit of playing with logic, but here you go Please, take the thread.
