Okay. I'm only an hour into the episode, and I have to go to bed because work tomorrow, so I'll have to work on this over the next couple of days. But. Cr4e31. The last act of Kother'ai. Leaving aside the utter beauty of everything that's happening here in general.

Brennan: She looks up, and you see the 12ft tall celestial version of her rushes up, and Hal, in the middle of one of Lash’s moments where he’s being stabbed and eviscerated, right towards the end of the play, you see that Vokjan is pulled out of him, and his wife hurls him through the paint, and the same miracle happens. You see this small family of translucent spirits that get to reincarnate and walk the Path and live again.

How much do I love that Vokjan Murzat, the spirit of Vokjan Murzat, in this moment somewhat trapped and confused by the echo of his last and fatal fight, the moment of his death, re-enacted through the play, gets full on yeeted into the afterlife by his wife.

Thaisha helps her, Azhmi, she shows her what to do and how to go, and Azhmi, celestial Azhmi, flies back and grabs her husband and full on hurls him through the paint and to salvation.

I love that Azhmi gets to save her husband. She gets to become a 12ft tall celestial, and fly to him in the memory of his agony, and just fly him free of it. Just grab him and hurl him free.

It's so beautiful. And it's also, just a tiny bit, absolutely hilarious.

God, this play, everything about this play, has been beautiful.

MOTM CELESTIAL THEORIES

I have theories on who the Celestials in Myth of the Machine are and what's their artefact. We practically have three of them confirmed, so let's start with them!

We can rightfully assume the creator of the Ink Machine, Yen Sid, has said Ink Machine.

In an early blog post we saw concept art of Steamboat Willie with a wrench just like the one in the prologue.

Miss Chalice is the who has the book, but why would she be holding a book? Let's take this a step further, why would a book be an artefact of the Machine? Well, in the Cuphead DLC her tutorial is a recipe book, and the cups spend their time fighting for ingredients that could give Chalice back her body. This book could have the recipes to create and or take away life.

As for the other three Celestials, I have theories on who two of them might be...

I started to play Dandy's World because of MOTM, and when I learnt there was a character named Blot, I've been wondering on how they'd fit into the comic. I have a theory that they're the Celestial that holds the ink. He has the same Celestial physicalities described in the prologue, and his trinket somewhat resembles the artefact. His trinket also has the ability to not alert twisteds when you fail a machine, which would be quite useful when using thee Ink Machine... That or his parents did not want him

I wish to refer to the people who say, "Shelly should've been Alice Angel—" SHUT!! ALICE ANGEL IS RIGHT THERE!! DO YOU NOT RECOGNISE THE DAINTY FINGERS OF THE WOMAN YOU DESIRE??! YOU FRAUD!!! Don't worry I am one too, I don't know anything about BATIM... but I've skimmed through the wiki! Gears are a constant in that game, and the player is even tasked to fetch them for a variant of Alice Angel.

As for this evil evil vinyl. I cannot for the life of me think of any rubberhose character who has a disk. With my only other lead is the spiked bracelet I thought it could've been Bowser but the hand is too small, or maybe Surge the Tenrec from Sonic? Records are a collectable in the Sonic Series but she doesn't make sense as a celestial...

I'm kinda just stumped. I don't know much about rubberhose media since I just got into it because of MOTM.

So if you have any theories on who they'd be, then please pray tell!!

Recently read the original Jack Kirby run on Eternals. Really did enjoy it. However, it's incredibly funny to me how decisively the in-house stance on the Celestials and their role in the Marvel Cosmology has shifted from Kirby's original "well, who are we to question the wisdom of the Gods" approach to "we gotta decapitate the gods and stick their heads on a pole as a warning to their buddies."

I wonder if anyone in Aramán has tried to cure the celestials of their madness? So far we've seen pretty low lvl magic but that's to be expected in the first 2 episodes of the campaign. Brennan said that running across a feral celestial would be a death sentence for most people, but there's gotta be some higher lvl magic people lurking around out there somewhere. I'm sure we'll run into them eventually. I wonder if that'll ever be part of the plot. Is their madness incurable? Were they ever fully sentient or were they merely extensions of divinity?

I'm leaning towards fully sentient because if not that raises all sorts of moral and ethical dilemmas about the existence of Aasimar. And if they're fully sentient then that means that an entire race of people who were enslaved went mad. (And to a certain extent Thaisha's family is directly responsible, in freeing themselves {Yay! Obviously} they condemned others to madness and death {uh oh}. There are no right answers here Brennan you philosophy class motherfucker).

As far as I can tell, no one has tried to help them. That's fucking dark. No wonder Thaisha feels a responsibility to get out into the world and try to make things better. I imagine this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of fucked up chaotic aftermath from 70 years ago.

Could they rescue and cure Wicander's grandpa somehow? (Greater Restoration or something like it, they don't have that kind of power yet, but they might eventually) He's been trapped in a basement for 70 years so he'll need some therapy but in principle I don't see why not.
