I believe you, fuck face. :)
Thanks Sarah. :)
But if Roland is a part of the Tower in the sense that you're describing, wouldn't that imply that he will never find rest/peace?
Well, perhaps after every loop that Roland goes through he 'learns' something new and gains something new (i.e the horn), so you can't say that every adventure/loop will be exactly the same.

There we go, book VII.
