I would just like to point out that I did not read the line originally as referring to Andróg's survival, but that could be just because I was already so familiar with the story of his death that I didn't consider it. It doesn't really matter, but I thought I'd say it.
Okay, fair enough. But unless I'm mistaken, you read it is saying that Andvir survived and lived for a long time after the battle; so my point stands that we all initially read "survived" to mean something more than "lived for a few more hours".

I need to think a little bit about Findegil's further questions, but I should have some comments by later today.
