Meti's master was a female Diogenes. Perfect.

quote:So Auntie Maya, student of Meti, is "Mathangi Ten Meti". Pree Aesma is apparently also known as Aesma Ten Yondam. Who/what was Yondam? quote:Aesma’s master, of course (other than YISUN) quote:Q: I feel like I might have misunderstood something. It’s not like “killing six billion demons” doesn’t sound impressive (I know I couldn’t do it!) but I don’t understand why it’s Allison’s name (as well as the commandment that Zoss gave her), suggesting that it will be the great or defining feature of her life. Why is killing a lot of demons/devils important? They seem to be a fully understood and accepted part of the world, even if they can be dangerous. Killing a lot of demons wouldn’t fix anything, it’s the Seven who need to be toppled in order for the realms to change, right? Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 08:04 on Jul 20, 2016 |

So wait. Is "Murder The Gods And Topple Their Thrones" part of her name, a second name, or her loving title?

It's her name the same way Kill Six Billion Demons is Allison's name.

It's her saint name. What, you haven't heard of St. Murder The Gods And Topple Their Thrones? Patron saint of duck farmers, Tripoli and curing dropsy. But seriously, I'd say there's decent odds that it's another title given by Zoss.

Tetracube posted:Maya is absolutely going to cut those guards to loving pieces in about two panels I vote 0 panels. Next page is a wide shot of Allison saying "Help me or get the gently caress out of my way!" In the background are a dozen dismembered corpses and little cuts on every surface. Maya appears not to have moved.

Yea, I have assumed that Maya will be some sort of rival/enemy to Allison rather than a friend/ally. I guess we'll see soon enough!

Maya seems fairly chill, except for the constant allusions to death and violence

She can't be an antagonist.... She's so cool. Please team up with Allison instead!

More Tumblr stuff, confirming what I've been saying since that moment happened in the comic:quote:This is probably me wandering in wrong direction: You say Jadis is never wrong because she saw the shape of the universe, but she calls Zaid KSBD while Zoss says Alison is. Is this because Zoss is outside of the shape of the universe(?) and can mess around with causality. Also if this is true, I'm guessing Incubus knows this on some level (from dream sequence.) quote:You’ll notice that Jadis doesn’t actually say very much in that scene and most of the talking is done by her translator. This is pretty intentional. (I thought this moment was pretty blatant but I've seen so many people including Jadis as one of the ones who was wrong about Allison and/or that Zaid is actually the Successor.) Also yes Maya is super cool and also probably not good news for Allison. Long-term. Short-term, she seems better than the alternative.

I noticed she stands counter to the big red dude. Is it likely that she will steal Mottoms power and become a Demiurge by murdering Mottom and toppling her throne? (throwing down her castle)

Aren't beggar knights unable to fight except in self defense? So long as Allison doesn't throw the first punch, she'll be fine.

They swear an oath to defend themselves and others, but that just means she's about to kill everyone in that hallway. Besides, if godhood is on the table people tend to forget the little promises.

You're all going to look foolish when Alison and Maya reconcile their differences in a noodle cook off. Surely a college student, barista, and Ascending King knows the true secrets of ramen.

Surely Allison and Maya can reconcile over booze. It wouldn't even require any sing-fighting.

Royalty kills without intention, movement, or thought. It would not take the greatest of leaps in logic for a mendicant to conclude that the only way to keep their oath is to execute all current and future royalty. To Murder the Gods and Topple Their Thrones, if you will.

It's not that beggar knights aren't able to fight, but that they are not supposed to fight. Maya might just be really bad at the whole following your vows thing.
