Unanswered Magiqverse Questions: Spoilers Abound

[Rimor]

WHO IS FLETCHER DAWSON?!!!

[CJB]

He’s the author of Forest of Darkening Glass!

[Rimor]

Okay so why did he have a super protected website that was integerale to the fragment and further fragments? He can’t just be a simple author as we know you yourself are not just a simple author

[CJB]

The volume of The Monarch Papers that Orvin Wallace was meant to burn is one key to that answer.

[Revenir]

THIS

Who are they? Where did they come from and why are they unofficial? Is this like…who the Silver was before they became evil, or something else entirely? I need to know.

[Revenir]

Also, I’ve been looking at the assessments again and it’s been making me think about the BoB and the other Books. Like… the Book of Briars was an actual book… does that mean the Book of Kings and Book of the Wild are the same? And the Book of the Wild is used by the Monarchs to describe the ‘before time’ but was it the first Book or were there more that we don’t know about?

Oh, and there’s SO MANY things in the loose thread theatre that are pertinent. I don’t think we ever found out about Cumberland Books, did we?

[CJB]

Books are magimystic parlance for eras or ages.

You don’t currently know how long those ages are.

The “time before” being called The Book of The Wild and now being The Book of Kings is a simplified way of explaining how things changed.

The four fragments in Time are the key to this answer.

[Revenir]

Oh shoot, I totally forgot the fragment names were eras!

[CJB]

I think most of the Lost Thread Theater stuff was answered by the end of TMP. Yeah?

[Revenir]

The beginning ones definitely were, but I think most of these are still mysteries?

Teddy said that anyone who killed someone was no longer able to use magiq. That’s why the storm wiped peoples minds or ‘unhooked’ them instead of just killing them. But in the end the Silver did order the Storm to kill someone…Nate. Will they face any consequences for that?

Who is Fletcher Dawson? They’re credited with writing at least 2 of the 5 books that were key to Deidre’s finding of the Little Red House. At least one of these books had a major impact on Brandon Lachmann as well. What is their connection to all this?

Who is the Collector? If it was just some random person they wouldn’t have had to go so far to disguise themselves as a bird-man, would they? Does that mean Deidre or us would recognize them if she had seen him in his every day form? Or are they just showing off their power?

How big - membership wise- are the Woolies and the Silver? Dozens? Hundreds? Thousands? You have to figure they have enough members to form a self sustaining population to keep alive through the generations (I make them sound like panda cubs in a zoo). There have to be more than a few. I guess unless of course they all have stupid long life spans like Cags?

What’s the Silvers plan B? I doubt they’re giving up on all this. Will they make another Storm? Can they? Will they resort to more aggressive magiq? Will they just use their wealth and fortunes to start dropping Cease and Desist letters on other magiq practioners claiming they have a copywrite on it? Is this the rise of the magicmystic attorneys at last?

Who, or what, was ‘the thing’ at the center of the Storm?

[CJB]

Oh. Right.

[Revenir]

Also, an add-on question - what was going on with Eaves and Bash during the later phases? I may have fever dreamed them teaming up. And Ascender following the path of butterflies…that was his way of saying he followed the Path of Wool so he could eventually overthrow them? Or something else?

Sorry, I’m throwing so many unanswered questions out here.

[Ginger]

Is Augernon forever a storm wiped version of himself?
There’s nothing we can do to bring back more of himself?

My heart just always hurts for him

[Revenir]

Constance too, omg. She really got the short end of the stick. Though at least she got out mostly intact, unlike Augie.

[CJB]

1. Possibly someone will/did. That was a desperate measure.

2. Answer given in a previous post above.

3. They had to tell Deirdre they were The Collector and to do that they had to wear a disguise because of what’s expected of Collectors.

4. More than dozens.

5. That’s just speculation about possible future stories.

6. I think Fallon’s notes hinted at that.

7. Eaves and Bash were out of the picture for a while and that story hasn’t been revealed yet.

8. Ascender was working toward his narrative during The Day of Change.

9. There’s nothing you can do.

[Revenir]

@CJB

There’s nothing you can do.

Ouch, how can one sentence hurt my heart so much?

[Ginger]

I just died like several times over.

The first few were just waiting while seeing CJ was typing, and then BAM. Heart crushed. Going to go cry now

[CJB]

Augernon is one of my all-time favorite characters I’ve written. It hurts me too.

[Bookchin]

I had a couple of questions / thoughts after blasting through TMP1&2 in the last couple of days. Wonder if any other newbies will share where I’m at?

A) Is the secret society storyline something I have to read on the forums? No worries if it is, just good to know.

B) Did anyone else read the two books like:
Ooh, this is fun with Guilds and stuff.
Or maybe it has some more depth
Oh.
Oh no.
Oh god.
Oh, people are dying.
Some fates are worse than death.
Oh sweet Jesus this is far more intense than I was emotionally prepared for.
…
Guess I’m a soldier in a secret war for the fate of the universe now. No biggie. I’m totally cool with that. Not stressed at all…

[Catherine]

Hey! The secret society stuff is all just on the forum for now, although that may change in the future.

You can check out the old threads by reading back in the Secret Society category, and @Revenir also has done a fantastic job of keeping the Wiki up to date with Secret Society happenings.

As for your other question, I think it’d be fair to say that plenty of Mounties shared your reaction!!
