The giant, having imposed a choice without meaning, whose either outcome is a grisly death, is the only choice for the ant, who, one bite at a time, may claim the life of the giant. Freedom through rejection of choice is a choice. (Right Ender?)
So, the Key is independent from her omniscience, ok.
One of the possibilities: Jag shattered her body and took her Key, but she’s enough of an arch-mage to continue functioning as a ghost. And currently she’s still a ghost, but during the timeskip she adjusted the color-scheme to appear alive.
Of course, her staff could also clone her body for her to possess…
Given the alt text, the old pun, “Two Worms fought in dead Earnest” should get a properly immobilized update, like a butterfly stuck to a display board or an ant preserved in amber.
why how dare you, good sir! this is a fine drawing! better than fine, even! if you luck the taste to Appreciate it than i kindly suggest you try drawing something Similar and see if you manege.
The giants are huge and dominate the landscape, but they are few in number. The ants, which no one ever notices, are many. And taken together all the ants in the world outweigh the giants several time over.
Alone amongst the principles of Royalty, the aspect of divine suicide is closest to the surface in the word Mind. In no small part, the essence of Mind is to see through to the bottom of itself, and thereby vanish.
The point of all life is to suffer. Which sounds terrible, but really it’s not. Because suffering permits meaning.
This is also why Jag’s ideals are stupid. He wants the power to create a multiverse free of suffering? Idiot. A multiverse free of suffering is only inert and lifeless. Even the Prime Angels suffered. Even YISUN itself suffered. Without suffering, there is nothing. And the linearity of time is irrelevant to that.
But that’s only my opinion. Reading about Abbadon’s philosophical ideas of “Royalty,” I’m certain he won’t take the themes of existential enlightenment in this story in the above direction.
I like the way “shape” is just bold while “mind” is colored and italicized. It’s like saying the shape is special, but it has no real power beyond perfect information.

This hits different after Everything Everywhere All at Once.
You getting the Old Bagel Halo feelings?
Yeah… Jadis is definitely vibing in the same space mindspace.
Most of the Internet: Doomers are unsexy

War: what is it good for?
War is good for business.

TWO WORMS ENTER, ONE WORM LEAVES!!!
Drawing is not very good
That’s it. You’ve now been banned from the Mickey Mouse club

I choose ant.
It appears that Jadis is also a fan of Edwin Starr

Guys. You guys. Her halo. Like the big ring where there’s normally a fiery halo. There’s nothing there. It’s just void. Omg this is smart.
Jadis is wrong, of course.
