Fitz, too, spoke of balances when weighing his decision to let Icefyre either live or die in FF: "I groaned and yet again weighed my choices in the balance. Free the dragon and what did we win?"...
...and also when he was healing Fool :"The elegant balance of the predator and prey applied here as much as it did when we hunted together."
As for the passages re the Fool that we talked about earlier, these examples were also in FF, such as where Fool tells Chade that the reason dragons were needed by the world and by humanity was "To keep the balance."
Fool also talking to Fitz in FF, Chapter Thirty-Four, Commitments: "But I also saw the chance for the world to know dragons again, a chance for there to be creatures as arrogant and lovely as humans, so that they might balance one another."
Even Kennit showed a physical balancing by way of his tattooing habit...obtain a tattoo and then have it removed, to off-set or balance his bad luck.
Why do I always come back to RotE?! Sorry Nevare
