I assume people are quoting this? From Sword of Destiny page 416. “She had fair hair, ashen white complexion and large impetuous green eyes” Let me break it down for those people to understand: "fair hair - ashen white complexion" and "Impetuous green eyes". So where does it say anything about being white? in other versions (Gollancz, with the cover illustration made by Alejandro Colucci) this quote is 'She had fair, mousy hair and huge glaringly green eyes.' English audiobook has the same exact quote 'She had fair hair, mouse-gray, and large impetuous eyes'. |
I'm on the side that this is a non issue, but I fail to understand your argument, and I think people responding to you misunderstand it, too. I have to say, any misunderstanding on other's is your fault here.
Later you say that the "complexion" quote is not real, but here you open up with the quote and even give it a page it's sourced from. So is it real or not? Because if it is from the book (page 416 of Sword of Destiny) and the word "complexion" is used, than that is saying the chick is white. Again, to me that doesn't mean using a nonwhite actress would ruin the entire show, but that doesn't make your argument any less puzzling.
