98. The Strength of the Few (Chapters 14–24)

This week’s chapters were absolute chaos in the best possible way. Between pyramid nightmares, chariot races, secret prisons, and Vis accidentally channeling the King’s Champion, we had a lot to scream about. In this episode, we break down Chapters 25–37 and all the moments that left us confused, emotional, or fully unhinged.

Here’s what we get into:

• Our Confirmed, Cursed, or Completely Unhinged theories, including Vis’s pyramid disaster and whether he’s destined to become the new King’s Champion in L.
• How we’re feeling about the book, from being hooked on Res, obsessed with O, and finally intrigued by the chaos unfolding in L.
• The biggest “oh vek” moments, like the chariot race, the secret military prison reveal, Dyago the alupi returning, and Vis nearly turning into one of the creepy ruin guides.
• The questions breaking our brains, including why alupi hate Will, what’s going on with Vis’s ghost‑mode in L, and how the iunctii timeline suddenly shifted.
• Our wild predictions, from Ahmose’s fate and the truth about Callidus’s body, Livia and Eidhin’s future, and whether the Will is being harvested in L without anyone knowing.

Join us as we spiral, theorise, and try to keep track of three Vis’s, three realms, and one book that refuses to let us breathe. Next week: Chapters 38–52.
