which brings me to--i wonder if skinspies can see each other as skinspies? or smell? lol, this is going to be the unintended upshot of eating sranc--the GO will smell like allies and the sranc will stop attacking
Well i believe that Simas was a product of Moe. His discovery by Maitha allows them to immediately bring the Mandate onside. I think he is a conditioned skinspy, "re-programmed" by Moe.

Any word on why Serwe would be the chosen one to being with?Nope, but no one knows why peasant Mary was chosen by God either. It's better than being the chosen one because of lame genetic "the farm boy is a secret prince " reasons.
Also she may have the judging eye her children were still births.
The pollution of non dunyain mothers. Is it at some point mentioned they look alike?
Finished chapters 13 and 14.QuoteShe smiled tears of rapturous joy. She could see him as he truly was now, radiant with otherworldly light, haloes like golden discs shining about his hands. She could see him!
This is the first time we have someone see the halos.
Also, we have Serwë's insistence that the baby is Kellhus'. I'm not sure what to make of that though.
