Don't need fancy arts when he can murder demiurges with his fancy breathing techniques.

Solomon is going be halfway through his prerequisite final kung fu battle monologue before he realizes Alison has already yeeted out carrying Zaid under her arm like a cardboard cutout.

Solomon David turns his back to give his dramatic monologue then use Martial Arts Breathing Bullshit to perfectly sense and block any incoming attack. There's no attack coming, because Allison nope nope nope'd out of there as soon as he wasn't looking at her. Reach Heaven By Violence To Narrative Convention

The fight is going to end when Zaed gets whiny about it and Allison finally decides gently caress this and bails on him, confusing the demiurges even more.

Who What Now posted:Calm down there, Elan. I'm just saying that 'anticlimactic confrontation followed by much weirder chaos and violence' has been the model for three out of three books so far, and 'tournament arc' has very clear story-structure. So either we're going to get the curveball of 'no, we're actually doing a tournament' or we're going to get another one of those. Plus, Solomon David absolutely cares about narrative convention, in the sense that he cares about projecting his own righteousness and presence constantly. That's not the same as being ironic or metatextual, it's just a quality of being a tyrant who wants to be loved as well as feared.

The real question is, does each individual worm speak with her chunk of Royalty?

My Jadis headcanon is that she saw the Wheel from the side so it looks like an I and realized that the shape of the universe was actually Himself/I. Himself is pure ego beyond reality and time, so being the shape of the universe seems appropriate for the #1 devil. Whatever is locked in the box is surely a Very Bad Kill Boss. A tournament twist could be Incubus controlling Allison to kill Zaid with a javelin.

in all fairness, the general state of the world is mirrored by the greater universe p effectively, psychologically stunted ancient vampire kings and all altho i suppose from a semi doylian perspective this is just art reflecting the world it is created in

Can't be this - creation is made of both YIS and UN. Himself is just the most powerful manifestation of the Black Flame, one half of the whole.

What if Zaid likes his new life as pampered captive, meets a nice local girl and then turns down Alison's offer of rescue? Stockholm syndrome is a thing after all.

What if it turns out Zaid was really Xikiktlikitl the Devourer, overlord of the Inztektlican Hive, banished long ago to lose his shape and memories so as to never again rampage through the cosmos, and proximity to Ki Rata has lifted the curse that kept the universe safe for the last 8000 eons?

Mammon wants his children to be happy! And I can see Jagganoth not being a dick... He might destroy the universe but he's not going to torture you while he's doing it. I wonder where Zoss would be- I'm assuming directly in the center of the triangle, or somewhere completely outside of it.
