How many of his sons has Solomon-David taught Ki Rata? Or would he reserve it for students who aren’t related?

From what I remember about Ki Rata, I imagine none currently living.

He's extremely pacing the road to hell with his good intentions

like it works out generally better in his worlds than in like mottom's because he doesn't just take everything a world has but it's still rule by arrogant jerk


He's also probably going to have a moment like the Third Master when he realizes no one learned a goddamn thing he wanted to teach them

Have you guys ever even seen a kung fu film? SoDa wiped out the Ki Rata temple* after attaining mastery because he didn't want a bunch of potential challengers being trained up only someone as responsible as he should weild such power. One old monk survives who could maaaaybe train a young hero to challenge him.

*Ki Rata was certainly practiced by an order of monks in a temple on top of a mountain

Here's the real questions:

Have Solomon and Gog-Agog been having a secret affair for the past thousand years? Will they ever go public with it?? How will this all end?

Check the inside of this issue of Gog's World Reports for the answers.

If it's radio I vote for Chris Tucker (or someone similar). I'd love a voice that instantly breaks the stereotype.

So I think that we can safely say that Solomon David is in fact the kind of bullshit martial arts character who is basically immune to assassination by anyone but a comparable martial arts master, by genre convention. Also, I don't think ki rata is based on the key of kings, so him being a Demiurge is icing on that particular fist-shaped cake.

Also this means he's specifically the archetypal arrogant kung fu prodigy who uses forbidden techniques because he thinks he's uniquely capable of doing it right. Only he then went on to found a multiversal civilization which he has ruled for ten thousand years.

I mean, it sounds like he was uniquely capable of doing it right, then.
