Lol - yeah, Conphas is such a great character, though GJ will be upset that you didn't say Coithus Athjeari.
Actually, really random addendum to this question - I know Ciphrank will appreciate it.
Do you think that the same story could have been told if Conphas and/or Martemus had been a woman? Would it have complicated (made more problematic than necessary) the eventual narrative dynamics between Kellhus and either of those two gender-swapped characters?
