Talk:The Pattern

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Exact size

Is the exact size of the Pattern given anywhere? AFAIR, it is an oval of about 20 by 15 metres. --Bakabaka 21:50, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

The exact size of the Pattern under Kolvir is never given, but the Rebman pattern is described as 100 yards by 150 yards. The relevant text from Nine Princes In Amber follows (I don't know how much to quote for wiki). --Sgorton 19:50, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

It was an elaborate tracery of bright power, composed mainly of curves, though there were a few straight lines near its middle. It reminded me of a fantastically intricate, life-scale version of one of those maze things you do with a pencil (or ballpoint, as the case may be), to get you in or or out of something. Like, I could almost see the words "Start Here." somewhere way to the back. It was perhaps a hundred yards across at its narrow middle, and maybe a hundred and fifty-long.
