I happened to pick up the Shadow Rising, and read about Rand and Mat asking permision to enter Rhuidean, chapter 23.
The Wise ones then says:
"Ruhidean belongs to the dead"
"They may not speak to the living until they return,"
"The dead do not speak to the living."
"We do not see them, until they stan among the living once more."
This seems very familiar, and I think I have read something very similar in Jean M Auel's books about Ayla.
Have I gone mad or can someone confirm this.
Can both authors have taken inspiration from the same source?
