In which White Chain dispenses with cryptic bullshit, sort of.

I forgot that White Chain was buying into the Zaid stuff. I'm guessing that won't get fully sorted out for a long, long time. Gog-Agog didn't get the memo about the JoJo poses

I'm guessing White Chain's word choice in the last panel is rather deliberate: I'm sure White Chain wants to see the power returned to the true king, I just doubt they think that Zaid (or any human) is the true king.

Zoss is totally Zaid, we get to go from A to Z before the cycle begins anew. The universe is a wheel and so history is a wheel as well. Grognan fucked around with this message at 09:00 on Oct 29, 2016 |

Well he clearly says the Master Key is not Allison's to keep.

I wonder if Allison is going to reveal that Zoss has been speaking to her here or not. It'd probably shock White Chain (and everyone else), and might clue her in on her masters being wrong. I don't know. I don't think Allison is going to just buy this and go, "oh, okay, I'm not going to be king anymore", at least.

She might still want off this crazy train and jump at the chance to give the key to someone else, like she did with Mottom. But hopefully last chapter was the end of that and this shift in her attitude will lead to her actually telling her companions about her visions of the Conquering King where he pretty much directly calls her his successor. If not here and now then at a sufficiently dramatic point some time in the future. Or she just finally sees a portrait or statue of Zoss and is like "oh that guy from my dreams".

Looking again at the prophesy image on the block of ice containing...whatshername (Jadis?), it appears that Jagganoth is allied with Allison, Cio, White Chain, and Maya against the rest of the seven.

Jagganoth and Maya are kind of off to the sides on their own. I took it to indicate that they are independent antagonists, which would fit with what we've seen thus far.

I'm still laughing at the scene where the guy is reading the prophecy of the successor off of Jadis's ice block and he keeps saying "he" and Jadis is just trying her best to correct him and say "she" but all she can manage is S-S-S-S-S

Hmm, the prophecy also seems to show that they are against Zoss, possibly a sign that Zoss and Allison ultimately have divergent goals Theres also an appearance of Maya back in her days of Sword and Flame. I wonder if the wording hints at anything.  M-maybe I'm just being paranoid...

Y'know, considering it seriously... Zaid is surrounded by folks who think he's the Successor. What if he ends up buying into that himself?

The only thing worse than an rear end in a top hat boyfriend is an rear end in a top hat boyfriend with superpowers who thinks he's supposed to be a god. I assume everyone will catch on at some point, though. I mean, she's flanked by the white and dark flames already and followed by the 108 burning stars and wears the mark of lordly whatever in her brow and all that poo poo. Incubus may have been a bit quicker than everyone else, but that can't last forever.

I can see Zaid ending up with a key from one of the Demiurges following some kind of 'accident' (or Allison related incident) which will convince him he's the heir.

I always liked how Jadis is just shown lying down, chilling out, not having a care in the world that she's about to be usurped. I would be surprised if she isn't, in some fashion or another, the secret final boss manipulating everyone else.

Yeah, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if she deliberately wasn't correcting everyone, because she wants to die and gently caress all these other assholes. I mean, her prophecies are always right, so unless she's actually wrong she knows full well that it's Allison and hasn't corrected anyone.

I just recently got that Jadis is more or less an extended reference to the Sibyl of Cumae -- she could see the future and could not die, but (having rejected the love of a god) she was subject to aging -- she shriveled as she grew ancient, so that eventually she was a withered motionless thing which was kept in a jar. "For I indeed once saw with my own eyes the Sibyl at Cumae hanging in her jar, and when the boys asked her, 'Sibyl, what do you want?' she answered 'I want to die'."

I'm pretty sure even if Jadis somehow regained all of her powers while retaining her knowledge of the shape of the universe, the first thing she'd do is kill herself
