: We're back! I've been wondering about a few things in
: this server's long absence.
: For instance, why does the Deceiver die? We aren't given
: hints anywhere as far as I can tell. It's never even
: mentioned. Ravanna was a small potatoes sorceress as
: far as I can tell. Nothing to be laughed at by
: ordinary humans, but no match for most of the Fallen
: Lords. Yet, when she dies, she somehow takes the
: Deceiver with her. To make matters worse, in the
: journal entry for Twice Born, the narrator mentions
: that Soulblighter can't escape because the Deceiver
: has one of the crows. That would imply he was still
: alive.
Indeed, there's a thread about this somewhere further down. We never came to a conclusion on it. Though it is agreed that Shiver is very powerfull, but she's a dumbass. That is, she's completely ruled by her emotions, raging into battle and then running away when she starts gettin' her ass whooped. That's what makes her so weak.
: Also, what's the deal with the Summoner? He was obviously
: pressed into Soulblighter's service. Was he actually a
: decent guy who was a victim of fate? The narrator
: seems to feel the need to justify killing him. Or was
: a a evil type who didn't want to play subordinate?
Again, we pondered this and came up empty. I think he was likely just some guy who, for no good reason, happened to know how to ressurect things, and Soulblighter found him and promised him power if he would ressurect the Myrkridia and destroy the world. But we never know. Maybe Chimera will tell us.
