So Gog clearly set this encounter up to hurt Allison, probably as a ploy to get her to break down and accept the Worm? I don't think it's gonna work out that way for her though.

Edit: Wait, is that CIO? I thought they were dead. Can someone please explain what the heck happened to cause them to look like that, if it is her? I feel like I am missing something. Did Gog make a... creature which does not actually look at all like Cio, why does Allison think that is her?

a piece of cios mask was in the spiky angry person, she visited allison after the whole time skip thing. allison told her to gently caress off forever or she would kill her. its some of cios flame and mask attempting to be the same person she was and failing, kind of like how cio attempted to be yabalchoath for a bit

The blue thing Allison had on a necklace was the piece of Cio's mask that was lodged in her arm.

Vladok's dissolution and transformation into Princess showed that something of the old demon can survive in the new one. I suspect that some aspect of Cio's personality reformed itself from the primordial chaos and began seeking out pieces of her old mask and Allison. After all, she'd already been reconstituted once. Of course it looks like the only thing that survived is Cio's obsession, but how much of her is in there remains to be seen.

It'd be kinda nice if instead this fragment was refined into basically Cio and Allison's baby? (I'm not sure but I sure did type that) The question is what would be her coolio special thing a la White Chain and her Ki Rata?

Edit: Because unless we're gonna say she can just do that just like White chain just spontaneously learned a Martial Art of Mass Destruction I'd say someone who is basically flavored as if they were raised by someone given by them an echo of their personality is the most you'd get for Cio living on in spirit.

Edit2:I think I've floated this idea before. Main thing is it just seems a waste to kill this pale demon or have nothing amount to it.

I think 'Allison comes to terms with Cio being dead' is an important part of this, but possibly also 'hey, sure, you can't have Cio back or the pre-Cio-dying world back, but something new can happen that doesn't have to be miserable' might be important as well.

Specifically, I assume that outcome has to involve not eating the worm, because Gog offers only the backwards look, not the forward one.

Anathema

Wikipedia posted:

The word anathema has two main meanings. One is to describe something or someone that is hated or avoided. The other is to refer to a formal excommunication by a church. These meanings come from the New Testament, where an anathema was a person or thing cursed or condemned by God.

:(

Not necessarily - remember the whole "tiered mask" system is one created by mortals to tame the chaotic flame. They are not universal rules of nature and can be broken and changed, similar to what White Chain went through.

I like the idea that if you eat the worm you're not supposed to chew. Just whole gulp it.

If you choose to chew gog just looks at you like you're dumb.
