Added 2019-10-07 03:52:42 +0000 UTCShaensigin pragmatically gobbling down Vampire on her way outta Dodge is emblematic of senet beasts v humans, to me. Maybe to humans he was a powerful rebel and leader of men, impossibly old, cut down in a humiliating manner tragically unbefitting his long and dramatic life. To Shaensigin he's a snack.
Anyway, go Lemon go!

Will we ever know for certain how much of what Vampire was saying to Roger at the end was truth and how much was the curse? I suspect there was a lot more truth to it than Roger is willing to accept, but it's hard to be sure. Unless proven otherwise I'll believe he set Roger up and used him, just like he said he did.

2019-10-07 18:39:34 +0000 UTCThe curse is cast on Roger, and he carries it with him for the rest of his life, whether he leaves the country or not. Hence, any Aldishman who encounters him, will hate him. It doesn't mean they know his name, but they will really, REALLY hate this summabitch to the point of wanting to slug him, call him names, eject him from their space. Of course Roger is quite the international celebrity and a lot of people know about him. If they see a man of the Copper caste in fine clothes walking about Cresce - and they find that they HATE HIM - they're probably going to recognise who he is.

2019-10-07 18:36:22 +0000 UTCAs our mad little troupe is about to part ways, it makes me wonder. Does the Etalarche Curse include something that allows Alds to recognize the target on sight? Obviously everyone in the current scene already knew who Roger was, but would they have known him just walking down the street? And the curse only affects those in Alderode, but does it stay with them when they cross out of range of the dammakhert? Would an Ald who had been inside Alderode when the curse was cast still attack Roger if they later encountered him in Cresce?
