Ashcans posted:How likely is it that Mottom recognizes the Master Key on sight? If she does then surely she'll realize this is a big deal, but if its not actually immediately recognizable from other headthings people might have, she might just be seriously confused about who this obviously befuddled rear end in a top hat is in the face of her awesome power demonstration. Like you might expect the bowing wave of people to reveal some new badass who thinks he's better than groot, but having the reveal be a tribute who is clearly terrified is way off. I think the shine in their heads is a big tipoff and one that Mottom has noticed. Hers is just twinkling a bit. Allison's is going off like the goddamn sun.

so if the seven demiurges each have one syllable of royalty, does that mean that Allison, being in possession of the master key, has all seven?

The keys have the Names of God. Each of the lesser keys only has one Name, the master key has all of them.

No, getting all the syllables is akin to enlightenment, and attaining that is why Zoss stepped down. There have been a lot of questions in that vein on the tumblr lately, is grab them but I'm phoneposting.

Also seen here, in the possession of the demiurges, who all think he's supposed to be Zoss' heir. Except maybe for Incubus, who was talking to Allison in her dream and seems to be aware that she's the one with the master key.

I'm wondering what it is that makes him the heir to such a vast power. Zaid is an Arabic name, I'm not sure that's relevant to anything.

Begemot posted:Zaid isn't the heir to poo poo. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He could be Zoss's biological heir; the old king's world was never conquered so for all we know he could be from the distant past of Allison's earth. It would explain how the Seven hosed up the prophesy so Royally if their interpretation was partially true.

That's the joke; it's impossible, and stated to be such in at least one place, but she did it anyway. She was also completely wrong about what she saw though, because she is dumb.

A sideway wheel is a tower. O is the same shape as I, depending on your perspective, therefore 1=0. Existence is a dream, which is why it is real.

It may also be a continual and taxing application of her magic to look unlike the horrible lich thing that she is, and among equals there is no point putting on such airs because they already know her true nature anyways. Sort of like the demigod equivalent of having resting bitchface but having to do fake TV smiles all day. Exhausting.

RiotGearEpsilon posted:In what way is Solomon more egomaniacal than the rest of the Seven, aside from he's more smug and zen? He embodies the sin of Pride which is false love of the self, the "I". Royalty is understanding that I AM AND I ARE ALL WE, that you are Yisun and Yisun is everyone else. Pride is failing to see beyond I AM; you fail to realize others are the same as you. Solomon knows he is great, but he doesn't get that he's just part of a greater whole, so while he's kind and benevolent to those who act as he would, he crushes those who do not. Really, if I had to guess, each demiurge's sin is doing the exact opposite of what their word should teach them. Of course, he could also fit in for The Diamond, assuming Diamonds are linked with perfection in K6BD much like they are in our world. Really, this is all speculation.

I assume Incubus will be the blade  e/ I hope they are shuffled a bit from the most obvious interpretation though, if only so someone can do a double take when Jagganoth turns out to be the mind.

Glory: Mottom obv Tower: Symbol of pride, conjures up image of the tower of babel which is especially prideful and also biblical like the name "Solomon David" so probably Solomon David Beast: Symbol of wrath, probably Jagganoth who is also an actual beast Mind: Jadis who has seen the true shape of the universe, whatever that means The rest are stretching it a bit especially since we know barely anything about Mammon so far but I'm going to guess Blade=Incubus Flame=Gog-Agog and Diamond=Mammon
