Seeing the crossover w/ Bujold’s Chalion/5 gods books altho it’s like someone took the gods’ symbols and purposes and shook them up. Here the rat god’s servant has dancing rats stitched on his things which w/crows is very much like the Bastard in Chalion, but in Ch, he’s the demon god and the god of all things out of season, here he’s the god of the justice system which there is the Father’s function

“The scholar looked up at him, her face unexpectedly somber. She reached out and clasped his forearm, wrist to wrist. “I know what it is to lose your connection to the people before you,” she said, and he heard the heaviness of that knowledge in her voice, “to come unmoored in history.

Maybe it was just an audio version of a typo while corrected herself or her brain did a weird combo

Must try cauliflower the next time I have an anxiety attack 😂🤣😂

Lololol

OK nice man character but yes her questions are so overwhelmingly annoying. They’re not intelligent or true knowledge seeking questions. They’re random wonderings that she’s bringing up in the midst of an urgent situation. Rolling my eyes. Move girl!
