That was me reading this trash, except with gagging instead of laughter. Is there a wertzone synopsis that miraculously explains this mess in a coherent fashion?

Darth Richard II Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Yeah honestly it was pretty straight forward. I mean, there isn't really much to even explain, which is one of the problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then how did a skin spy ninja Kel with a trinket? How did that kid get into the Ark in the first place? How/why did the TTT fail? What was the point of Mimara? What was the point of Esme? Why does a centipede/dragon know what human vagina smells like? Why did i just read like a hundred pages of dudes chewing other dudes dicks off? I guess that would be a good place to start?

Callan S. Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 With the circumfix and the visit from the 'no god' (which might be any old thing in any old guise), the madness after escaping that and looking at twigs and the dialog between Kellhus and a duplicate Kellhus "But I tend the fields" "Who better to burn them?", plus other phenomena, there seems to be plenty of visions in Kellhus's life. Plenty of room for them to not 'just' be visions (and how could something 'just' be a vision anyway, particularly to a Dunyain) for it to be some supernatural entity playing its own game of conditioning. We go through books of Kellhus manipulating others - the idea of him being manipulated surely must come to mind? It's almost a trope! Classic story telling. After that, the gods can't see Kelmomas for some reason (twin souled?), so Ajokli cannot apprehend Kelmomas when he turns up and this disrupts the possession. Kellhus is suddenly confused, for a change - the chorae lock down is lost because Ajokli has left the house and a skin spy manages to salt Kellhus. So that's two potentially contentious readings/answers. Does seem odd that Kelmomas would get in and manage to turn up at just that point, though. One thing I'd like to raise is I wonder if Kellhus would even have worked in the sarcophagus - I suspect only Kelmomas would work in it. The Dunsult were wrong. They could have kidnapped Kelmomas years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Richard II Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The circumfix. No. Thats a good question. That's another good question. Because reasons. She had no point. She also had no point. Because Bakker can't write and is f'ed up in the head. See previous answer. Most of those are addressed in the Q&A and AMA or in the last thread. although you won't like the answers.

Darth Richard II Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Oh right, the timeless bullshit. YEah time has no meaning or something. (Actually I find that part kind of cool, I'm just still pissed about other things, uh, obviously). Do we actually know if Bakker had no editor or is that actually just something we throw around because of the suck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odium Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Bakker addresses the whole "Nonmen elsewhere in Earwa" at some point. It might have even been back on Three Seas, but I recall reading something about how the Nonmen were just never expansionist or something and didnt spread.

Yeah, but there can be ambiguities in how one reads Nonman as being restricted to just Mountain-dwelling Cunuroi. Cunuroi in Eanna might be so similar to Men in culture that they didn't enter the 'Nonman' schema that the Eannan's possessed i.e. the Tribes consider them another sort of 'man.'
