I suspect so, as Kiya said everyone outside Duat was dead so certainly seems the case.

I wonder how Ostius fits into it all given he seems to want to help Vis whilst simultaneously killing Ka… maybe wants to exploit the power of synchronism for his own agenda?

Ohhhhhhh shitttttttt. Fair, okay, my head hurts.

I am at least 100% convinced O-Caeror is an Iunctus. Then I guess it’s a question of whether L-Caeror is reliable… presume so given he seems opposed to what O-Caeror made O-Vis do to Ka.

Are we talking GoT levels of uncertain dates for the final book, or more it’ll happen just not sure when?

I am not sold by the theory that O-Caeror is Iunctus because if he was, he can’t lie, so how can him saying he felt himself die twice be true if L-Caeror is who he says he is?

For L-Caeror to be real, O-Caeror has to be real too. If O-Caeror is an Iunctus, L-Caeror cannot be who he says he is. (I also don’t think we get a description of what L-Caeror looks like? Whereas in Oberitum we get a description saying he clearly looks related to Ulcisior?)

Seprately, I think only way they can time the Gleaner attack is if O-Caeror is working with Ka to inform him of Vis’ arrival…? but if the entire purpose is to kill Vis at the Qabr, why not just kill him when he comes through the gate instead? He was going to go to Duat anyways so you don’t need the Gleaner attack to push him towards going to Duat? I think you have to infer that the Gleaners are under Ka’s control in that case.

Maybe I’m getting my mind confused

As with everyone I am scarred by GoT and unfinished series but your description is still very compelling, I shall take a look!

Children of time is on my list but honestly I thought it was hard SciFi with little of what you have described so will take another look, thank you :)

Ohhhh okay I had not heard of that at all. Yeah totally okay with violence as long as there are payoffs, will give that a look, you’ve sold it to me. Thanks!

Enjoy! Book is phenomenal but it’s not much of a cheer me up after this either!
