So it seems the overall consensus is that those seeking more adventure would choose Echoland and those who seek peace and solidarity would lean toward Olam Shone

But even these two known facts should vary on e William is King. He could open up Olám Shoné to others...but never Fate Sealers.

Sonce Olam Shone has E holand citizens and Will will definitely try and possibly get rid of the Fate Sealers, they would easily open the land since the threat would be gone.

I guess they could and eventually might, but it reminds me of a similar situation in the House of Night series I had read a while back. There was a warrior island that had shut itself off from the main world and had created it's own laws and sanctuary from outside forces. They had been apart from the real world for so long they didnt even know how to begin allowing integration or entry into their own world.

If I had created a peaceful sanctuary I wouldnt be so quick to let everyone in.

True but since one requires their Sound to enter, you would have to be vetted by at least one guy before gaining entry and also on the other side.

They could always send their vetting crew to the other side of the gate once the danger passed, and ensure whomever entered would not disrupt others.

I would definitely not like living in Echoland where all the terrible Fate Sealers were. I would prefer Olam Shone since they lived in harmony with one another and seemed to be safe and content with their lives.

But if the Fate Sealers were removed from this debate (hopefully in William's reign), which land would you choose then?

I still think I would like to explore Olam Shone, because we don’t know a lot about it. The mushrooms that gave off power could just be one of the wonderful things there.

I agree that Olám Shoné has a lot to be explored and I would hope a sequel could explore this.

They had healing powers anand apparently kept you from aging which is pretty cool! I'm with you! I envisioned echoland as a dark place. Olam shone and harmonia was full of light and goodness

It would be interesting to explore Olám Shoné further and see what other wonders exist there.

I would choose Echoland. A new world of reflections which are called Echoes.

In Echoland you would be in constant danger of Fate Sealers.
