I feel like the thrust of these speculations keeps running afoul of the opposite of Occam's Razor, and we're conflating characters beyond necessity.

I don't think that Ginasta's ID as the 2nd unknown Arclentian Tower Walker is "bulletproof", because it doesn't explain why she's counted as Arclentian rather than Renthnorian. We have no reason to assume she had even been to Arclent prior to the Ardford summit, so she would have done some of her alleged exploration of the Tower to acquire the power to kill the Skullcrusher while still in Renthnor. (Presumably she made her way from Rodak to Ardford overland through Thenours and by sea, most likely spending some time in Erosia.) Moreover, this contradicts her prison conversation with Aka in which she says she has no idea where her power comes from, although not her last prison conversation with Simon where she uses the keywords "True Power". I can't really see Ginasta lying about not knowing how she got her power to deceive Aka.

We're also assuming that any given thing Xerces says ISN'T a lie, which is a pretty big conclusion.

I'm inclined to leave the 2nd unidentified Tower Walker slot open until we have more information.

As to the various speculation on the mystery girl, her mother, and various sciuridae... Oy, am I glad file hacking is disallowed from spec, now.
