The Unholy Consult / Re: The Unholy Consult Giveaway

Honestly, I wish I could read the Consult’s memoirs attached to TUC

Fear and loathing in Earwa

‘We had the No-God, hundreds of sorcerers, high-tech laser weapons, a salt shaker half full of Chorae, dozens of Wracu and a whole galaxy of multi-colored Shranks, screamers, laughers and also a quart of Tekne, a case of Bashrags, a pint of raw hate and two dozen reasons to continue. Not that we needed all that for the Crusade, but once you get locked into a serious soul-collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the collaborators. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an eternal curse. And I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.’

Quirri is not just a harmless and consequent-less tonik, like lembas, therefore it will affect Mimara's baby just like spice affected Alia Atreides (maybe, the baby will have the Nonmen memory... or even will mutate into the first female Nonmen).

Question: Can it be that Dunyain women aren't simply companions to Dunyain men, but rather have their special function within the scope of the mission of the Dunyain (by analogy with Bene Gesserit)?

4
Prediction: Serwa will discover Consult skin-spies among the Nonmen.

5
Prediction: More of the Inchoroi are rushing at breakneck speed towards Eärwa. Cheesy but thrilling.

6
Prediction: Kellhus possesses some cryptic knowledge of the Inchoroi (some unrevealed outcomes of the probability trance?). Alternatively, he could have his own spies in Golgotterath. We'll be given to understand why Kellhus acts so resolutely sending the whole of his Empire to battle the mostly unstudied enemy.

7
Question: Could Mog-Pharau be revived with the use of tekne?

8
Prediction: The Great Ordeal will suffer a defeat or lose its war potential before it reaches the Ark.

9
Prediction: We'll see a metaphysical explanation why Eärwa is so hateful and indigestible for the Consult.

10
Prediction: Kellhus will enter into alliance with the Nonmen in order to find the Heron Spear.

11
The Dunyain are said to invalidate customs and traditions, yet they keep names and genealogy. But why do the Dunyain need names? Is this tradition so necessary? Maybe, Akka will find a sound explanation.

12
Probably, we'll know the answer to the following: What was the nature of Moenghus's "contamination" when he had returned from 'the wilderness" into which he had been sent to explore the threat of Sranc? Why was he exiled instead of just killed?
