Miskatonic & Gin' Wrote:Actually, I think you guys may have misunderstood me. All of the above is completely Otherness driven. Everything in the book pointed to either Anya or The Otherness. I was referring to Anya's comments that "The Ally is involved here as well, though tenuously". I've haven't found anything to point to that so I thought someone may have a take on her comments. The sink hole, dump truck, Dormentalists, etc, etc is all part of the plan to get the world ready for Nightworld and totally Otherness related. If the Ally was involved it was in some capacity that I haven't noticed.
Well, all that information is definitely otherness related.
But Jack is there to see it all and, maybe put the pieces together, at which point he could attempt to stop the Dormentalists and delay their plans to bring on Nightworld...that possibility seems a lot more like an
Ally thing than an otherness thing.
Does to me, anyway.
In addition, another Ally thing is that Jack reconciling with his Father will require the Ally to kill him later in order to make Jack into his spear...so that would be another connection.

Axioms Jack seems to live by (inadvertantly or not):
Why he does what he does: "I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either." Bruce Wayne, Identity Crisis
On Rasalom: "Water's wet, the sky is blue...and good old Satan Claus, Jimmy...he's out there...and he's just gettin' stronger." Joe Hallenbeck, The Last Boyscout
