"Henceforth, our very foe shall sustain us..."
The dread command had been given, at long last.
"Henceforth, we eat Sranc."Many have already begun to speculate on what this might do to the Great Ordeal:
In the case of Sranc though, I really feel like that's going to have some horrible, grotesque negative effect in the long run. Eating Srancflesh is just way too freaking ominous. Maybe it will almost be like crack to the Nonman's cocaine?
Um... Huge +1.
This is fun. Now with half-baked plot speculation!
....Ch. 2 - Aorsi (zsoronga, proyas, kayutas) - first effects of eating sranc,
So what do you guys think the effect will be?
My guesses:
-Kellhus already knows what will happen when the flesh of Sranc is eaten; all is premeditated with the Dûnyain. He will abstain from eating it himself.
-It will be a stimulant like Qirri.
-It will be revolting at first but ultimately prove addictive.
-It will cause irreparable harm to the mind and body. (Perhaps even the soul?)
-It will slowly cause those consuming it to feel the violent/rabid "Sranc-lust". (In true Bakker style, there will be some description of this abhorrent change using the word "phallus").
Any thoughts, serious or silly?
