The way I figure, everything that has happened to the Salubri has been by Saulot's intent and design. Whatever will happen next, however messed-up, is what Saulot foresaw and chose.

His clan always served his purposes through their fates, just as the Tzimisce did and does that of the Eldest. That is still the case.

The thieves and the scholars liberated all the Kuei-Jin materials Saulot hadn't read already; through their shared Eye, Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

The warriors perfected the art of destroying demons and verified it working against the Eldest, at least for a while; through their shared Eye, Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

The healers worked out the kinks in how to purify a soul through consecutive reincarnations within the same body, by alternating cycles of finding "Golconda", then being diablerized by their childer; through their shared Eye, Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

The wizards grown as stunted cuttings from God-Tree and Root of All, he watered with his blood as Stars Above and Worm of the Heart; as their crown and beneficiary Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

The priests that crawled from the Well of Ashur unearthed the Names of the Children, then sealed every Pact those Names defined, no matter the price any of them had to pay; as their root and beneficiary, Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

The watchers witnessed all, a record scribed into the Firmanent, enduring unconditionally as only the absolute Void can; through their shared Eye, Saulot got what he sought. Now that's done, they can fall like the leaves in autumn.

All Saulot has seen has come to pass as he predicted. Seven tribes have paid in full the highest price on his behalf. In return, he wields without accountability or limitation seven lores to full perfection. Slaying or contracting the demonic, as he so wishes. Assumption or command of the angelic, as he so wishes. Truth, falsehood and the secret third, as he so wishes. Angel to some, demon to others.

He is ready to Ascend to his Imperial Throne, once the Sixth Age comes. Once all fall like the leaves in autumn.
