How many Shades have there been?
Just having a reread (listen) to the books for the first time since I was a teenager and wondering about shades.
It’s mentioned that, before Eragon kills Durza, only two people have killed a shade. Assuming those two only killed one each, then does that mean there have only ever been three shades (plus the one who turns up for about 10 mins in Brisingr)? Or is there a suggestion that there are a load of living shades elsewhere who’ve never been killed?
