The White-Luck Warrior / Re: Speculation on the end of the Unholy Consult
« on: February 26, 2016, 05:04:05 pm »
I think, for sure, the GO has to fail. If it succeeded in destroying the Consult and preventing the resurrection of the No-God, a final un-named duology of books wouldn't be necessary. So I suspect the GO will be destroyed. It will be on Sorweel, Akka, and Mimara to raise a second ordeal (history repeats itself yet again), and with most of the Three Seas decimated, it will be on Zeum to shoulder the majority of the burden. And perhaps we will see a return by the fifth tribe of men that stayed on the other side of the gates back in year 0.

If the GO is doomed to fail, the question is how. I didn't even consider it on the first read, but after a few rereads, I think the WLW will succeed in killing Kellhus. I don't see how he couldn't. The book says many times that the WLW sees himself killing Kellhus. He dispatched Maithanet with ease, and although Maithanet is only half Dunyain, I think that's an indicator that the WLW will ultimately be successful. After watching their sweet God of Gods get slain, the GO will inevitably fall apart. It's their belief in Kellhus that holds them together.

Also, I wonder if something won't happen with the Nail of Heaven. We know it isn't a star. Is it perhaps a mothership the Inchoroi left in orbit (a la Independence Day)?
