skybridger is the funniest star wars ship to me bc people just want luke skywalker to be gay so bad they ran the math on ezra’s age and went “yeah. that’ll work.”
Anyone want to hear a fun fact about The Infinite and the Divine? Y'know the Song of Serenade? How it's a numerical code and theorized by Trazyn to be a book cipher? Did you know that you as a reader can solve the code before the characters do?
Hiding behind a break to avoid spoilers
The line of numbers given in Act 3 Chapter 8 is as follows: 3211 1545 4131 5322. Trazyn guesses it is a book cipher due to the now flayerized Quellkah's obsession with going through books and his fixation on the code. However, at this point they do not know what the book is, so they cannot unravel the message.
We the reader, on the other hand, can see that each chapter opens with a quote.from a people and work in universe. And there is only one work quoted multiple times. The obnoxiously long historical necron play, The War in Heaven.
So. Let's test this out.
3211- Act 3, Scene 2, Line 1, Word 1
1545- Act 1, Scene 5, Line 4, Word 5
4131- Act 4, Scene 1, Line 3, Word 1
5322- Act 5, Scene 3, Line 2, Word 2
Which leaves us with "Do not be deceived"
Oh, and because Robert just can't help but be clever? The chapter where the final piece of the message is the header? Act 3 chapter 8? That is not only the chapter where Trazyn reveals the song is a cipher, it is the chapter where "Vishani" tells Orikan not to try to solve the code. But the reader can now solve it!! We can get the Big Hint to the Big Twist and dang I think that's cool.
The fact that the Bloater killed Perry (AKA Tommy in the game) the exact same way it would in the death scene from when the Bloater killed you in the game was chef's kiss
