The Unholy Consult / Re: Big question about the consult's intentions.
« on: August 30, 2017, 09:53:57 pm »I agree that the Oar is referring to the No-God, but its pretty aggravating that even when answering questions, RSB answers using a term that has never been applied to anything else in the book and so causes more confusion. I know he is all into philosophy and uncertainty, but his tendency to be unable to even answer a straightforward question in a straightforward many has frustrated me several times.I actually think here he answered in a way that was completely obvious to him, but forgot it isn't to us.
Definitely possible, but if so, that happens A LOT. It is a weakness of the series in my opinion that a significant portion ("a fraction") of what you need to piece certain plot points together is reliant on extra-textual things. One of the ONLY weaknesses, mind you.
