Hey all, first post here.

I have fairly recently become aware of some of the differences between the Light Novels and the anime adaption, which makes me quite sad that Viz seems to have abandoned the novels. Anyways, in my attempts to learn more about how the anime changed things, I learned quite a bit more. I found out how the Light Novels end. Oops. Oh well, nothing to do about that now.

But this brings up a question in my mind. Given the true nature of the Snake of the Festival's plan, I have to wonder why he didn't just tell Shana and the other Flame Hazes about it all much sooner. Yah, they might not all agree, they might distrust him or think the plan too risky, etc, but surely some would hesitate. Actually, from what I understand, don't most of the Flame Hazes retreat once they learn what Snake of the Festival is really up to?

And I think Yuji would really want Shana at least to know what his goals were. So, was it ever explained in the Light Novels why he waited as long as he did?
