This makes me think of Sorweel's father warning him about the Sranc.  Harweel shouldn't even be in Yatwer's mini-dimension...  Ancestors who retain autonomy in the Outside?
Maybe the Wight also retains some autonomy even in damnation and is able to claw his way back to Earwa

Nah, MG. I think this going to be a classic episode of omission.

I hope so!  It's going to be something epic and Illiad-like with a crowd showing up!

Gilgaol is very likely aligned with Yatwer, there are quite a few references to this through TJE and WLW.

Ajokli is also referenced many times and is clearly up to something, as is (to a much lesser extent) Anagke.

Ajokli is the prime candidate (in my mind) to be on the side of Kellhus, as he is bellicose and rewards thievery and assassination - Kellhus is a star in those fields.

The repeated pairing of Birth and War makes me wonder if they aren't just the same thing.

Giving birth is battle, complete with pain, blood, and death.

The Aztecs buried women who died in childbirth with the same funeral rites as war heroes. 
What is reason, but the blindness of the soul?

R. SCOTT RAP3ZT TERRIBLEZ LOLZ.

if Kellhus was thinking all of this, he's going to freak out when he get's back and Kelmomas is all "i lieks to eatum peeples da"

the whole thing is orchestrated by Kellhus who is wearing a Bashrag as if it were a suit
