I didn't want to go messing around with this fairly established article without commenting about it first and getting some advice. As of the Path of the Warrior novel the third paragraph is a little inaccurate in its detail. More specifically the novel describes the death and rebirth of Karandras. In the novel it is explicitly stated that there is no body within the Phoenix Lord's armour (indeed, not even any blood) and that the armour is filled with the spirits that make up Karandras, which Morlaniath and his associated personalities are added to after being ripped from the exarch's body and the spirit stones in the armour they inhabited.
My problem is as follows: the detail in this article is based on an actual codex (albeit an older one) whilst the more recent information is based on a novel. Which of the two takes priority in this case? Is the older information simply to be viewed as a casualty of canonical development? Which of the two is the version that should be on this article? This is further complicated by the fact that the entire scene spans about four or five pages and is rather artistic in style making it a little tricky to spell out precisely what happens; although I'd be happy to give it a try if appropriate.
