I'm saying his goal was getting more souls, which the IF does perfectly.QuoteI'm not so sure about that. According to Ajokli, the Outside is infinite and cannot be shut (obviously wrong), so what the Inchoroi think they are doing is pretty irrelevant (to Ajokli).But this is the crux, Ajokli cannot motivate a mission he cannot see.
What matters is what the IF makes them do. Its the method they are using that's important, and that method gets him trillions of more souls with their actions, as opposed to none with inaction.Right. So the IF just happens to show Ajokli's outside, not the outside of all the other Gods.QuoteIt says 'my house'...Ajokli's house is hell.
Far, far too convenient to be even slightly plausible for TSA, imo. THough I realize we've reached an impasse here - hopefully someone else can help us out
Quote from: ThoughtsOfThelliThat can very well be the case, and I've wondered if it's possible that Cnaiür's personality was somewhat warped after his ascension from human to Ciphrang/god. That could explain it too, perhaps.
Thought the exact thing when I read. God Cnaüir is likely to be different then human Cnaüir. Matter of fact, people have expressed angles were it makes sense already. Its the boat we missed y'all.
As others have said, in Earwa what comes after determines what comes before AND the gods exist outside of time. So it's entirely possible that Ajokli was "born" when Cnaiur walked into the whirlwind. Cnaiur certainly had enough hatred to fit the bill as the Prince of Hate, although the trickster aspect seems lacking. Still, I find it quite plausible. Especially when you consider the priesthood of Ajokli deemed murder to be holy. That sounds familiar...
Insofar as Ajokli being "different" from other gods, that's because he has access to a reverse prophet; Kellhus. Kellhus brings him news from the Inward, and that allows him to see what the other gods can't see, know what they can't know.
Yea, I mean I could be over thinking it. But, you would think he would see him approach or something. I did forget until now, that what made WLW-1 "see" Kelmommas was when he hollered. That is what caused the short circuit there.
Quote from: JabberwockI'm waiting for him to be irredeemably broken in TNG (Acha leading the "resistance" would be to heroic to sound true in that world),
Never understood this view, on Akka becoming the savior.
He is the most educated on The No-God, has somehow become a Prophet of the Past, and is no weakling wielding the Gnosis. Damnitt, Bakker doesn't have a soul if Akka don't catch a break in TNG.
If one of the 100 is the Luck God, then that god clearly hate Acha!Anagke is the god of Fate, close enough. I think she has a particular interest in fucking with Akka.
Quote from: JabberwockI have to admit I would find it disappointing to have an happy ending in a world and a story like this one.
I always expected and want the same type of ending. In don't see it at all being happy, but rather bleak, but humans prevailing and having chance to rebuild civilization. I know others have expressed your sentiments, id just like to hear your opinion on why you don't/expect a "happy" ending.
