Just searched through the book again. I didn't find the passage I thought I had read, so maybe I am remembering incorrectly (or maybe I just missed it in the quick skimming).

I did find this bit which is similar, but different enough that it doesn't suggest Vasher is her ancestor:
Quote
She's descended from one, he thought. You can tell by the hair, there's a bit of Returned in her.

It's about 3/4 through the book, when Vasher is considering killing Lightsong and Nightblood is trying to convince him to do it.

Maybe that's what I had read initially and misread it to be that Vasher was claiming he was her ancestor. I definitely do remember thinking it was weird that Vasher was her ancestor, but I'm glad I was wrong.

So many people have thought that the royal family is descended from Vasher, I'm beginning to think there might be a phrase somewhere in the book that gives that impression. Anyone want to try to track it down? (I already know where everything is that says they're descended from Vo, the first Returned, but there might be something that indicates the wrong thing.)
Yeah there is a line like that. There is a part where Vasher is watching Vivenna and thinks something like "she can change her hair, she must share my blood" or something like that. I don't have the book with me at the moment, but I'll try to track it down later. There aren't too many Vasher viewpoints before he actually starts hanging out with Vivenna so it shouldn't be too hard.
