I wonder if Allison will continue her unintentional policy of indirectly fucking over every Demiurge she meets.

Zoss - Slain by Thorn Knights while giving her the key.
Mottom - Has her husband and source of eternal life murdered by Allison.
Mammon - Mottom'd.

[smjjames]

No, I've heard Gog-Agog the worm queen is supposed to be next. At least that's what I've read from some past tumblr entries that I've seen while looking at the KSBD wiki.

However, that could be subject to change and Allison learning a form of martial arts would definetly fit with a Solomon David fight, though he's supposed to have Super Saiyan 4th tier level martial arts or I dunno.

Zoss- Wasn't he maybe already dead when he gave her the key? Not sure on that. Since the very act of removing the key thing from ones head is supposed to kill you dead on the spot...
Mottom- Kind of Mottom's fault that she confused Allison into thinking that she wanted her husband dead.
Mammon- Yep. Though it's not clear that he's actually angry at Allison at all.

Tumblr says we'll see Solomon David in the next book. Though in this book we did meet both Mammon and Incubus, with one being there on the sidelines manipulating things and the other being the focus of the book, and the one who gets screwed over in the end by Alison's actions. Could be similar in the next book, with Gog-Agog and Solomon.

Zoss is only kind of dead. He's still kind of a spirit-beyond-death, yea? Wasn't he the first among the demi-urges--seems that he's sticking around in Al-Yisun's head, even if we haven't seen him in a couple of pages.

Where? I tried a search for solomon in the tumblr and didn't find the mention that you said.

Anyhow, yeah, it's possible that Gog-Agog will be on the sidelines being a conspiracy theorist, unless she was just being a troll during that meeting.

Q

Anonymous asked:

How did Solomon David manage to avoid the "powerful demiurges seem to be covered in scars" thing you have going?

A
You’ll see in the next book, the guy does not fuck around. He is one of the only living people to practice the esoteric martial art Ki Rata, whose chief tenant is becoming absolutely, completely, totally, and wholly a stupendously untouchable badass

[smjjames]

Hm, 'one of the only living people' implies that there is at least one person out there who isn't a demiurge who does practice it.

I get the feeling that Ki Rata involves a hell of a lot of high speed dodging and other evasive moves and probably not a whole lot of offense since if you're untouchable, you just have to let your opponent wear themselves out and strike when they're at their weakest.

I'm calling it, Allison learns Ki Rata at some point, though she's going to have to go into a time machine or pocket dimension or whatever to master it in a reasonable time without coming back out 50 years older and it being 50 years later. Since the martial arts voodo is supposed to be behind Solomon Davids immortality, I guess it taking 50 years wouldn't be too bad.

[Cruxador]

You guys probably shouldn't think in terms of one demi urge per book, since there's more demiurges than books planned.

He's not in her head. His ability to do stuff while dead seems to be a natural side effect of being beyond causality.

More likely in my view, she just learns it real well due to the perks of royalty, but even so never truly masters it, instead combining the basics with the stuff she learns from White Chain and others to create a new school of great Majesty.

How many books are planned?

Incubus and Ares, God of War Jagganoth have teamed up and are definetly up to something, Mottom is going to try to chase Allison for sure, though she's preoccupied and Allison and Co. seem comfortable enough that Mottom has lost the trail. Mammon is... just raging I guess? And the two factions are embroiled in a war.

[hops]

I like to imagine that the Zoss we see is a ghost, an echo of his power leaving its mark on the worlds.

[Cruxador]

How many books are planned?

I don't recall, actually, I just remember being surprised at how few it is. It was probably more than a year ago that I last saw Abbadon mention it, but then I follow this far less closely than some.

New one up and end of book 3: https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/seeker-of-thrones-11-153/

Next book is King of Swords, no idea if there would be some sort of themeatic connection since Seeker of Thrones didn't really have a themeatic connection to the story I don't think.

Zoss was ready to rest, but his beard refused to give in, so he lingers on like one of those glowy dudes in that vastly inferior series of Lucas flicks, but instead of something stupid like the light and dark side of the force, there is only the lush and the shaven sides of the beard.

Allison wears her beard in her heart.

Cover of book 4 is up. No permanent link yet.
Looks like we will indeed be seeing some solomon and some gog-agog. And hopefully a properly badass Alison, judging from the hair growth.

[ggamer]

per tumblr we're gonna see a human helping out the root angels, which should be pretty lit

speaking of badass alice-UN does anybody have the link that got thrown deep in the comments when Zoss named her? It's the same page where he yells kill six billion demons and the picture has wayyyy future alison saying something like "don't wear it out."
