SAVE THE B33R!
One theory I've always had is that Akka is going to eventually reach another level in his magic by going blind and combining the pshuke with the gnosis. Back in TTT Kellhus talks about how the gnosis is like the meaning of gods words while the pshuke is the passion of his voice. Combine the two and probably you get super magic. This is further supported by Bakker's short story The False Sun, a story literally about a blind gnosis using supermage. This also would finally give Akka a chance against Kellhus.

Kellhus gives the order at the end of the white luck warrior and it ends basically right there.
