Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Seven Up

They needed someone to use as a target to create portals, so they would need to drill through it anyway if they wanted to put a portal inside the gate. Granted, I'm sure portal science has come a bit further from where it was when the story started; there was talk of portaling into random worlds bef...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Six Up

I think the decay thing was due to the fact they were in universe-1. The electric eel-like organ they've got to charge their tridents could sustain them in universe-1, preventing them from leaking energy like the second life humans did. That's how I remember it anyway; I don't think the fast rotting...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Six Up

I'd estimate about 2,000 (loyal) readers from that. Consider that those numbers increment each time anyone returns to the thread. That makes the discussion ones too inaccurate to say for sure, since each new discussion thread means several people return to see that post. Guessing, I'd say each read...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Six Up

If everything Michael did became common knowledge, he'd be next against the wall and considering the number of them he is responsible for torturing and murdering to fabricate evidence that Yahweh was worse than he actually was, they'd be right to do it. That may well happen if Lemuel shows up. Mich...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Six Up

I think the orcs were the original natives of Hell, so the choir should be a different race, especially since it specifically mentions casting them down to Hell after Yahweh was done with them.

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Six Up

He looked around him, trying to gauge the mood of the crowd. There was something he had to do right now, so that at least one of his team would be properly rewarded. "Leilah-Lan. You are the only Erelim in my inner circle. Yet you came here first and were the first to strike a blow at Yahweh. ...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Five Up

I bet the understanding comes during the transition between the 1st life and the 2nd; one of the many things not understood of the process. But I'm talking about the Demons and Angels: beings that never went through that. Also, that language most likely predates humanity, and may have influenced ou...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Five Up

It's a story, he's probably not thinking in English at all. I'd call it a translation convention.

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Five Up

AFAIK, the bubble universes are closed universes... like living on the inside of a Dyson Sphere. The "Horizon" curves upwards, not down, allowing you to see much further. Technically if you looked straight up you'd see clear across to the other side of the bubble, barring cloud, diffusion...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Five Up

Finally. So anxious to see how the fight turns out. Also interesting to get confirmation about other supernatural factions: so far there are the angel/demons, devils, Caesar's gods, and the Aesir. I wonder if all the latter groups are distinct, or just different names for the same thing. I don't rem...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Four Up

I believe the speculation comes from the fact that nothing about Yahweh's or Satan's physical appearance was ever stated within the story, except for "really big". At the least, I don't remember anything being stated. I'm pretty sure it's just audience speculation though, we don't really k...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Three Up

You have to remember that most of the nephilim are institutionalized. Mind controlling a large number of them to do anything noteworthy would be non-trivial, especially if the Message was still broadcast in this scenario, because then the humans would be on the lookout for anything unusual, like a l...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy Three Up

I haven't read the entirety of this discussion, but canonically there are specific limitations on using portals that would make most of those ideas impossible, even if they had the desire to do them. They need a sensitive or demon on the other side to use as a targetter, and given that most sensitiv...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy One Up

Hmm. I think the size disparity issue may be a little too far here. Having angels running up to sixty feet tall interacting meaningfully with twenty foot underlings (who are the size of toddlers to them) is tricky. Having them interact meaningfully with ten foot underlings (angels the size of your ...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy One Up

I believe it was stated that all buildings had to be built big enough for angels to fit in (presumably only the smaller angels) when Lemuel was investigating the second conspiracy.

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy One Up

Regardless of the human situation the angels themselves are going to be the huge problem though. I'm trying to find numbers for the angels, but I can't seem to. I don't think it was stated in story. But even if all the humans wanted to throw off their angelic oppressors (doubtful, but at least in th...

Re: The Salvation War: Pantheocide. Part Seventy One Up

[Having done some re-reading of the story (not for this, mainly just because it had been a while since I'd seen the earlier chapters) I did come across this. I'm not sure we can really say all the humans are all that blindly adoring of their masters either. The slums especially seem likely to conta...
