Crazy Theory
Aug. 18th, 2009 12:14 amHello reprobates,
I've been re-reading QoA and KoA recently, and as I came up to the story of Klimun and Gerosthenes, a theory struck me like an unlikely lightening-bolt. Now, given my luck, this short theory has probably already been mentioned, considered, debated and debunked, but as it is late and my cursory search of Sounis tags has not revealed anything of this kind, I will relate it below.
Problem: Who is the Goddess who intervenes on Gen's behalf in the heart-stopping climax of QoA?
Proposed Theoretical Solution: This is the Goddess of the Moon with whom Klimun makes his bargain, and to whom a six-year-old Gen and his grandfather sacrificed when they visited Kathodicia.
What do you think? Have I just embarrassed myself by proposing a well-known red-herring?
Inky
