I might be getting ahead on chapters. But doesn't Soma ask Mimara for her Chorae so he can destroy Cleric?

Yeah, that will come later. It believes, or at least it keeps telling Mimara that the Qirri is poison, or at least want's her to believe this.
Again though, it's unclear, is it just trying to stop them from going to the Library? Or is the Qirri really poison, are there some later side-effects? Or do they fear that if they get to the Library, Wutteat will kill them?
I do believe that it actually is trying to "save" Mimara, but from what it is completely unclear.

My money would be on the Captain, for many of the reasons you've said. We know that the Captain eventually reveals that he knows who Mimara is and imprisons Akka. I'm sure that eventually he was gonna kill Akka and even says he'll take Mimara back to Kellhus (or Esme?). They (Consult) know of the true and false prophecies and want Mimara safe. We know the Captain is more than just an Ainoini Captain. Wether he has been to hell, posessed or whatever, that's who I believe Soma was watching from the beginning. And, it would seem as if Soma was a Skin-Spy all along.

Oh, yeah, I'm definitely buying Soma having always been replaced. And indeed, I think it plausible that it was sent to watch the Captain all along, perhaps because of Cleric, or perhaps not. Indeed, Aurang may well have known that Kosoter was Kellhus' man, so they wanted to watch what Kellhus was watching, essentially.
We'll get to it later, but trying to kill Cleric might be because it knows that without Cleric dead, they probably can't kill the Captain.
MSJ:
So, I know it's later on, but the Captain imprisoning Akka with a chorae, would to me, confirm that Kellhus wasn't involved in this journey. Wouldn't it? I mean, if Kellhus wants Akka to reach a certain place, why would the Captain want him dead? Why wouldn't he be protecting him? This combined with H's quote abouts Akka being very strong with Chigra, would suggest that Seswatha not Kellhus is sending the dreams.
Which has been my thoughts for awhile now. I have a feeling that Ishual is gonna reveal something extraordinary (duh). And, I'm of the opinion that everyone there is not dead. Someone or something has to be there.
