you are right, it is Akka not Maitha.

I think this might be one of the instances where the glossary to TTT is misleading.

So Fane and Triamis are both Kahiht and therefore sacred?

If he wants the Tekne, why not simply join the Consult?

I can think of few limits to his ability to travel to places or accomplish assassinations. As Mimara rightly realises Kellhus could simply have appeared in Akka's tower. The same goes (more or less) for Ishterebinth or Golgoterath or Ishual.

There are already hints that the Great Ordeal is simply a vehicle for transporting the Schools to Golgoterrath. There's a reason he wants the Nonmen there too, impending betrayal notwithstanding.

I agree with you that TUC is going to be a revelation....

Quote from: Curethan

This is a speculation that I have raised before.

So many apparent coincidences suggest that its either all a part of some ancient plan of the dunyain founders that Kellhus is ignorant of, or the Whore or the solitary god manipulating fate on a massive scale.

If we take the interpretation of the white luck as a manipulation of causality, could we interpret the dunyain quest as one to obtain mastery of the power of the gods?  Could the no-god itself be important to the dunyain objectives?

This. I assumed it was a divine agency such Anagke. Do we have any basis to believe the Solitary God exists?. Cishaurim Moenghus suggests Fanimry (and the Solitary God) is just a myth....
