When I first met her I just called her First, One. She had a real name, but I buried it with her, and nobody says it anymore.

[...] When I saw her face I decided I wanted to live. I decided to live forever just in case she ever woke up.

Not to be the unhinged theorist in the Locked Tomb fandom but the Resurrection Beasts and Alecto have some peculiar themes that just tie too perfectly into radiation.
Like the blue light with Varun. Because if theres a real world example of a haunting blue light you never want to see in person ever, it's this:
Also, Nona does not want and probably can't really eat, which is both a running gag but also one of the first sympthoms after somebody gets radiation poisoning. And at the end of the book, her condition deteriorates.
And even from a narrative point of view: John Gaius used to be a scientist. He wanted to save everyone. He also kinda took the soul of the earth. He embodies powers that, if kept in check, can help many but they can also spell untold destruction. It just works. The resurrection beasts and their rampage basically being the equivalent of a melting reactor would mean it is still John's fault and it fucking is so I will just keep believing it.
some 'the locked tomb' sketches 🖤

something about john, a māori man, trapping the earths body in a white, blonde woman based off a barbie doll, a symbol of white feminity. something about this barbies soul ending up in a black/brown girls body, and being surrounded by people who loved her more wholesomely than john ever did. something about john supressing his culture through in empire for tens of thousands of years, naming his lyctors after classical figures and pursuing the same colonial policies that forever harmed his people. something about how john can never truly escape from where he came from.
Harrow and Alecto 🥀
