[QUOTE="InVinoVeritas, post: 4165463, member: 41485"] [sblock=Karl, Oskar, Vindala, Dianna, Barask] You can't think of anything new that the words mean. [/sblock] [sblock=Lily] The discussion of time is certainly pertinent. The author doesn't appear to treat past, present, and future as anything different from each other. Time shifts are the domain of transmutation magic, and only the power of a master wizard or a god could move time like this. Alternately, the author may have divination magic, allowing him to see the past and the future as surely as he can see the present. That would certainly cause some form of mental damage over time--if time can even be understood by such an individual anymore. There doesn't appear to be much connection with the planes. Time moves differently on other planes, but it still moves inexorably forward. [/sblock] [sblock=Possum] Scilivanthrok appears to be a prophet of Ahrianna. The Seven Sisters are all mentioned, with Ahrianna being the one praised the highest. Ahrianna is the Goddess of Delirium, Mother of Monsters, Daughter of Madness and Clarity. It is said that Ahrianna gave birth to all the aberrations. Worshippers turn to her if they want to find hidden truths at the cost of their sanity, and there are rumors that the most loyal disciples are "blessed" with new horrid forms. She does not get along with her other sisters. Fallon is in a sinkhole now, and used to be on a plain, but not on a mountaintop. You can't think of any time when Orussus was under the sea. Severus is in the Lands of Air, atop a series of plateaus. Perhaps one of them is the Plateau of Stone.
