And about the Aporos not being damnable. I'd say that it is possible for the schoolman himself to be damned by the sorcery he used to create the Chorae, while the Chorae itself is not. Did that make sense? Maybe some god entity likes irony and damns his followers but not items they craft.

Oh ok well I guess I missed that. I got tripped up on your description of Chorae and didnt answer any of your questions.

Is the JE fallible?
There is no direct or explicit evidence that TJE has 'judged' something incorrectly. Everything that Mim has seen seems to be more or less plausible.

Unable to define all things Inchoroi?
I don't think Mim has seen anything Inchoroi.

Making reality?
This is an interesting question that really delves into the metaphysics of Earwa. As far as we have been told, the Eye just sees things as they 'truely' are. But I have no idea if that is true. Its possible that it sees only what Mim wants to see, or that its some special manipulated artifact that Kellhus controls, etc etc. Insert conspiracy theory here.

One more.  So chorae were were created for the Inchoroi, and that makes all the difference?

I'm confused now :P. I thought you were asking about the chorae. I'm here now if you want to use that forum instant message. Go to the forum homepage and click the (+) on the Quorum section near the top.

All the difference for what?

Its just a forbidden branch of sorcery. So was the Wathi doll that Akka has/had, or the Diamos that dear Iyokos wields/wielded.

I don't think that some schoolman giving aliens some of their technology is particularly important.

Chorae where made by Aporetic schoolman. It was a Nonman school bent on the negation of sorcery. The Megecca where Aporetic schoolman and they helped create the Chorae for the Inchoroi.

more info here:

Though I haven't looked throuhg that whole post there should be some good info there for you to fill in some gaps.
Also remember that there is still a lot of mystery surrounding the JE and also that specific scene too.

Assuming of course that there are different levels of topoi... Maybe it goes out like distance rather than magnatude. By that I mean, once something has achieved 'topoi' it is some kind of bridge to the outside. The bridge can get bigger, but a bridge doesn't become more-bridge-like. So maybe the depth of atrocity just makes the area larger. So because of all the suffereing, most or all of Agongorea is Golgotterath's topoi.

17? Where might someone find out which 17? A basic google search didn't do much.

Well from my personal (and biased) experience, I'd say  its totally worth it. Though I was a participant in making the posts in some cases, its still a lot of fun to read the thoughts of everyone around, especially our  conflicting ones. Definitely comment on old threads as you see fit. Oh, and not all the posts have anything to do with TSA so you might not need to read them all.

Are there any links specifically that you'd like to see? I can probably find them if you need them.

General Earwa / How many languages has TSA been published in?
« on: June 22, 2013, 03:14:44 pm »
Does anyone know how many languages TSA have been published in?

I thought it would be entertaining to try and collect first edition copies of the books in other languages. Though since I can only speak or read english, it might be a challenge. But thats the fun part right? If it was easy, what would be the point?

That way, whenever Bakker shows up somewhere where I can go see him again, I'll have some interesting books to have him sign. Though AE is still pretty new and finding first editions should be easy, it should be more difficult to find PoN (or at least thats the hope).

Also, is TPB the only place where he mentions that he might show up somewhere or is there someplace else that would be good to look?

The Great Ordeal / Re: Excerpt - The Unholy Consult, Chapter One

Goddamnit when is this book coming ouuuuuttt

I thought it was close 6 months ago. But that hope was fizzled out and I'm back to no longer wishing and just waiting. Since waiting is much less disappointing.

Well if people have been turning up without faces and no one know who/what might be replacing them, it is possible that they decided that the crazy mandati were responsible. Everyone needs a scapegoat.
