[quote=@Kho] I have actually, a very long time ago. Didn't think there were any similarities, wasn't in my mind at all. Was actually going for a primeval biblical feel with a bit of human frailty in the mix. [/quote] [hider=Spoilers for anyone who hasn't read the book] Ah, everythiing just reminded me of Okonkwo's story. He was a Patriarch and through great willpower earned the respect of his people and had many sons. But then some of hos children were disobedient and the coming of Christians changed a lot, and in the end Okonkwo ended up hanging himself before the Christians can get their revenge for him killing some of them, and one of his sons went on to work with the Christians. The whole story was about the struggle of one Patriarch, his ignoble death, and finally his legacy. In Thanatos I saw those themes return to life, and it made me happy. [/hider] [@poog the pig] A lot is on my to-do list and so I won't be the one to initiate. Feel free to initiate on your end though and have Lifprasil visit, though be aware that IIRC was somewhat flustered and pissed with how Lif left so suddenly and considers that apprenticeship a failure. It's one of many things contributing to how he's being now. Without spoiling much, relatively soon something will happen that will make Zephyrion gone and inaccessibe for a long while. So I'd be happy to collab with you if you start the post and have an idea, just be aware that if you want to do this it will need to happen somewhat soon
