Weird/anomalous things about G1deon and Pyrrha:
- Mercy calls it “Pyrrha’s trial”
- Pyrrha says that she cracked open Gideon’s skull and sieved his brain fluid after he did the trial. And that the only other pair who tried it were Mercy and Cristabel, because only Christabel would put up with being trepanned in the regular.
- as they’re breaking into the tomb, Pyrrha says that she and Mercy and Cass worked with cell thanergy.
- Unlike any other cavalier, Pyrrha seems to prefer guns to swords.
- G1deon is a thanergy void, which isn’t something we hear about anywhere else.
- Aside from going into the river and draining thanergy, I don’t think we hear about G1deon doing any other necromancy?
- When G1deon is introduced, he’s explicitly described as not having the necromantic build of the other two lyctors.
- Pyrrha tells Gideon that “more got taken from me than from you”, but in Nona Pyrrha certainly seems like a complete person. G1deon seems more like the one who might be lacking something.
- Pyrrha calls him G—— once
- Pyrrha describes the tower princes’ uniforms as “disco”. Maybe just an oversight, but seems unlikely that Muir would forget that none of them should remember disco, she’s usually so precise.)
- Jod kept G—-‘s arm after he died, and “had plans for that arm”.
- It seems pretty clear that at Canan House, Pyrrha was acting like a necromancer and Gideon was acting like a cavalier. Whether that means she was actually the one with aptitude, or that he had the aptitude but they were just interested in the work of the other role, I don’t know. Cracking open skulls and sieving brain fluid does seem like a necromantic thing to do, though. And Lyctor!G1deon doesn’t seem to do much normal necromancy.
- Pyrrha remembers something from before the resurrection.
- Quite possibly G1deon was the first human resurrection?
