The snakes (smoke eels) do seem to be important and the writer has talked about them on her formspring/ask.com thing. Without going into that, reread what the dying girl in one of the earlier chapters says about them when Duane finds her. What happened to her also clearer with the plague talk of the last few pages. Some things seem to come out of nowhere, but have been foreshadowed or even kind of explained long before. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. After all, if you don't recognize it as useful information at the time, and need to read additional stuff outside the story to realize that it is, it just seems out of place.

Lord Winalils is the weirdo wright who gives Sette the pymaric that allows her to control Duane when he's asleep. It's implied he has something to do with Stockyard and whatever the real reason is to send Sette to Cresce.

Heh, poor Elan keeps running into the worst situations for someone with a heart condition. First there's what amounts to an EMP to his magical pacemaker, then Elka straight up attacks him out of nowhere to steal his police badge, and now, Elka flips out on him when he's already doing something sneaky.

The Khert recognizing people as people is necessary for them to be people and for their bodies to work. On the one hand the silver must be fooling the Khert into thinking their missing organs aren't missing for them to still be alive. On the other hand, the first silver itself also messes with the whole recognizing them as people part and so their very existence. The people in that cart are simultaneously not-dead/people and dead/not-people... Yeah, that can't be fun. Happy Yeti fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Jan 31, 2014 |

Ashley has mentioned that we're close to the confrontation with Stockyard, which is what this part of the story has been leading up to. The confrontation is probably the halfway mark for book 1.

Apparently a lot of people have asked about that and Ashley says that it's just incense that makes the place smell like home (Sharteshane and the ocean). So it's probably nothing.

We never saw it, but 'constructs' were mentioned and compared to Uaid. Toma also said he wanted some next time he went up against the Red Berry Boys, I think.

Mostly what Tollymain said. It's actually well known that first materials (like Uaid's clay, Toma's sword, or any pymaric/magic item) have their own khert separate from the one that governs the laws of nature. Since magic works via the normal khert, you can't use it on first materials since you're not affecting their individual khert, making them really handy when fighting wrights (like Toma's sword). What Vienne managed to do was include normal materials in the separate khert of a piece of first material (in this case the millstone getting included in the khert of that green piece of Uaid's clay). This makes it impossible for Quigley to do magic to the millstone.

Oh right, misremembered their relationship. Well, then it's his closest allies/friends bailing on him.

This page (http://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch09/ch09_49.html) and the next, I think, is what Elan means. Though I don't know why he's only telling Elka this now.

Axiem posted:I'm pretty sure that /x/ is not ejective. Are you thinking of /kʼ/? Tainish is actually fairly developed. She's not Tolkien or whatever, but she has made grammatical and spelling rules for it. There's a short guide for the language in the second book she made, I think.
