Maybe I'm just unreasonably confused, but I was kind of left in the dark at the very end of the book.

After Kit lets the sheepdog-Ponch go, he turns around to his driveway and sees someone in the driveway. And it says that she was there, almost as if she expected him to be there. Who is SHE? At first I thought it was Nita, but she's in bed dreaming. Then I thought it was Carmela, but that doesn't really make sense.

Does anyone have any brilliant insight into this quagmire of thought? Wink

I think the girl at the end was Nita. It was just that, chronologically, the day Kit was seeing the sheepdog was after the night Nita was dreaming. So, yeah, it was Nita. I mean, who else would it be?

It's Neets! I mean, who else would he greet like that? He's already done that in other books...
It always seems to end like that! "Laughing (insert person's name) went to greet him/her." Like Nita and her mom, Kit and Nita... yeah. Smile

I thought it was Nita. I asked DD in the September Chat:
Peter Murray DD: I assume that's Nita in the last sentence of WAW?
Diane Duane PM -- Yes.

And really, who else knows Kit well enough to know where he's going to be at any given time? Nita is the only answer for that question!

Cool Tchaa. 'Course. And plus the mental messaging bit of it.

I just sort of wistfully smiled because I knew that there was at least some happiness, even though Dairine (might have) lost Roshaun... Frown

I never had any doubt that it was Nita. So much so, that when thinking about it later, I was like, "Didn't it say it was Nita?" and then I looked back and it didn't. But who else could it have been?

I don't think that it would be that way with anyone BUT Nita. Nita and Kit are like that, and she's the only person who would make sense being there.

I'm torn. I'm a Nita & Ronan fan, but if that was Nita at the end, that's awfully sweet.

As pointed out in the fourth post in this topic, DD also says it's Nita, and I don't see that you can get a more definitive answer/opinion than that Smile .

The eloquency of SpeechOrb's words leave something to be desired, but the point is there non-the-less.

Now it's just a whole bunch of waiting for W@W to tell us moooooore about Nita/Kit.

*is utterly convinced it was nita* i mean...who ELSE could he be THAT happy to see...and it probably WAS the day after....or he got up.....and even though what speechorb said isn't neccesarily a one liner, i'm still going to pretend to repremand him out o feer of doing a one liner myself. *pretends to reprimand*
