I mean, Sol demoting himself to general of the army under a democratic state (and maybe starting up a martial arts training school, although teaching Ki Rata specifically would have its own practical and ethical hurdles) would prevent a bunch of potential problems. The Celestial Empire only needs people who can punch good in order to defend itself. It doesn't need them to run the actual machinery of state.

The problem you have with Solomon remaining in any capacity is lingering influence and general deferment. People will still wind up inevitably going to him for advice on how to govern, or just toadying up to the old regime, and he could potentially wind up ruling from the shadows despite not actually sitting at the head of government.

He could do some king Arthur poo poo, just bugger off to whatever he's been wanting to do all these years and leave a phone number for emergencies.

Or he could do a ten finger ten point strike and destroy his empire as easily as he wrecked that table, just to prevent it from falling in the wrong hands.

The thing about ruling a seventh of creation isn't that you need to defend it against others. It's that when one of the others invades your slice, the other 5 will also restart waging war and they all agreed to not let that happen because they couldn't win more than what they already had. Until Jagganoth's army is completely ready, that is.

Holy poo poo Salami is being faced with the original choice he was given so many years ago. Stand aside as a hermit master of Ki Rata while the world moves along past him. This is nearly the same as what his original masters wanted.

Saying "oh my god I can't believe how big a bop this preview you can't see is" is annoying. Talking about the content of the preview with proper spoiler warnings is different. I'm gonna do it! I'm gonna talk about what's in the preview, so watch out! Preview spoilers below: Did we, uh, did we even know that Jadis was capable of moving around on her own, much less teleporting across worlds? What on earths is she saying? Presumably something like "I would like to make it clear that all my previous prophecies mentioned dudes and not radical ladies, because I hate you all and enjoy leading you astray."

Rand Brittain posted:I'm gonna do it! I'm gonna talk about what's in the preview, so watch out! Preview spoilers below: More preview spoilers chat! Alison could teleport a whole ship and its inhabitants on instinct so the fact that Jadis can teleport isn't without precedent, block or no. That she's here, now, certainty is a surprise though. She presumably has a message for everyone there. I think the Red God making his move is the only thing that could make SD sweat bullets like that. Maybe she's even prophesying his doom while she's at it. Dr Subterfuge fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Sep 15, 2020 |

Saying "omg preview" is indeed extremely annoying. This should be obviously true since multiple people in this thread have stated that they find it annoying and wish it would stop. Post in spoilers if you have something to say. Just post on the patreon posts comments thread if you only want to share in a communal sense of hype.
