Harrow’s grief is such a perfect inversion of John’s, isn’t it? Absorb the souls of 10 billion, nothing but memory left. Refuse to eat the soul of one, remember nothing. Remake the world to reflect your grief while you remain inviolate and indestructible. Keep your grief partitioned while you destroy yourself. An unquenchable desire: ceaseless revenge. A single desire: the life of Gideon Nav.

For all that the Christian imagery is so deliberate, actually pinning down who’s the equivalent of whom is like a game of Whack-A-Mole.

John is God, only he’s just revealed himself to actually be Satan. Alecto was Satan, until she was Adam, except she’s kindasorta Jesus. Harrow is Jesus, based on the above post. Gideon is the Child of God, conceived without direct intercourse if you ignore the threesome in the background, intended to die, and later she sacrifices herself to save Harrow. If Alecto is the source of John’s powers, she, as the ghost of the solar system and everything in it, is herself God. Wake is the Devil and the Virgin Mary, complete with iconography.

It’s such an amazing situation, like theology put through a rototiller.

harrowhark nonagesimus is the character of all time. she's 3'6 and made of soggy pipe cleaners and will hiss at anyone who gets too close to her and yet she is almost universally beloved. palamedes sextus is like this is my best friend and my special guy. ianthe tridentarius is like i WILL marry this nasty smelly woman. gideon nav devoted her soul and body to her after hating her for 17 slutty, slutty years. god himself was like you are the wildest and saddest bitch i've ever met and you are a daughter to me. and harrowhark is just sitting there with 3/4 of a brain and vomit on her robe

Palamedes kicking down the door when Nona says that she doesn’t find redheads sexy being like DATA POINT DATA POINT WE’RE EXPERIENCING A CATEGORY FIVE NON-HARROW MOMENT is honestly high comedy.
