The truth, apparently, is not the one told by the fans, with the writer who wanted to unravel the mystery with his recent statements. “There's a weird story on the internet about how I 'hid' my initials in Eden Ring because… ah… some of the characters have names that start with R, or G, or M. To which I say,“ Huh? What? Truly?" This is new to me. I've been writing and publishing stories since 1971 and I suspect I've given characters names starting with R, G and M from the very beginning. Along with all the other twenty-three letters of the alphabet. "
