Seeker of Thrones 1-4
Chapter: 1
“In some parts they know the master of Throne as the god Zayus Patrom, father of lightning. In others they know him as the great warrior called Angel-Breaker, who fights with a spear dipped in molten silver. Only one name is bestowed upon him in common across all the wretched cosmos: King.”
-Sayophraxes, Silent Sister of the Wax Covenant
Looks like even God’s Scribe can be mistake. Truely made in the gods’ image!
Sovereignty doesn’t make mistakes; Foolish tyrants do.
What a lot of nonsense that Aeon speaks. Pay it no mind Al-Yis-Un.
Kings arent made of “should be” they are made of what will be.
And now that she is finished, one more name: the cutter of hair
(first?)
AKA hair stylist or barber, of course
The strong need not adhere to the fate laid before them for they forge their own.
Sisterbrother White Chain couldn’t be more mistaken, I’m afraid.
Sisterbrother White Chain couldn’t be more mistaken about the successor, I’m afraid.

Ah, the blindness of the ones who believe they know all.
Why do so many people think Zaid is the one with prime-protagonist potential? From what little we saw of him, personality-wise, Zaid is hardly what I would call the best choice.
Are the angels uncomfortable with a WOMAN having all that power?
Geez, those seraphim and cherubim need to get with the times!
Hurrah for Equality of the Sexes!
*Trump debate voice* WRONG
“Well that’s not what Zoss told me.”
– Probably Allison on the next page
Yeah, somehow I doubt Allison is still that naive.
Holy crap people, let Allison be King she’s cool.
I think it could do with MORE Jojo poses, Abaddon.
Nearly everything can be made better with JoJo poses, speaking from experience.
I find it VERY unlikely that, considering everything that Allison has done so far, shes not the king.
Silly Angels!
That’s bullshit and you know it, you sour blueberry!
But isn’t Princess Mamoru Moonshine the blueberry? I seem to remember Blueberry being somewhere in her long-ass name. Or perhaps I misremember…
Even this angel mistakenly thinks it’s the boy and not Alison that is the chosen heir?
Wow White Chain, way to make assumptions.
Furthermore, a covenant
of Wax is something that I want
to trust when I learn about Zeus
An often forgotten fact about zeus is that the ancient greek letter ‘zeta’, the first letter in the name Zeus, was actually pronounced as much as a d as it was pronounced as a z. So: dz, not z. this ‘hard z’ is still in use in many eastern european countries, who where primarily christened in the eastern orthodox tradition because they use greek instead of latin as the language of their faith. This is also where the russian alphabet comes from and the german hard z and their ‘ringel s’. Though most greek ‘z’ words in use in western europe have lost their hard z to the point that most people find their original pronunciation to be entirely counter intuitive (seriously? Dzeus sounds so much less awesome then Zeus) the name Zeus went another direction. It emrace it’s har d ober it’s soft z. This is how the name for the patriarch of the greek pantheon slowly morphed into the roman word: Deus (pronounced day-us) which became almost exclusivly used to denote the christian god in latin
Dyaus is also one of the names of Indra in the Rig Veda. This along with Mitra/mithras as sun god is an indication of how ideas moved westwards over that time. If that makes sense.
I said I’d trust a Silent Sister of Wax
not a Numbered Angel Mister’s Facts.
Even if they’re plausible and exact.
*heavy sigh* White Chain, so close and yet so far. You mistake a would-be Consort for the Rising King. Hrn- the flickering in the Flame, is that shame, sibling? White Chain does not speak an untruth, but they lie to themselves all the same.
Cio speaks from experience, White Chain, I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss her assertions of what a Key of Kings can do, let alone the Master Key.
Yeah, that’ll happen.
Are they assuming Zaid is the intended recipient because he’s male, or did I miss something further back?
Well king is usually a masculine title and many of my brothers (or sisterbrother) are boring pedants. They must think that th
Well King is usually a masculine title and many of my brothers (or sisterbrother) are boring pedants. They must think that the prophecy would have been so precise as to mention a QUEEN.
I must admit that I cannot understand how they could be so arrogant as to question the conquering King himself.
I don’t know Zoss seems to be happy about how things are playing out. In the place of a Lord you would have a Queen! Not dark but beautiful and terrible as the Morn!
