I do seem to use that word a lot.
I do think I blogged a discussion about a character in a HH cut storyline called the Mobius Magi (who has also been referred to).
He’s an example of self contained time travel loop. He not only fathered himself, he apprenticed himself to himself, by accident of course, he didn’t know (neither older or younger) that he was taking himself as an apprentice, nor that he was his own father, but time loops are funny that way. Of course part of this was because he took himself as an apprentice before he fathered himself.
It’s for this sort of thing that I am keeping time travel out of the series. It’s way too complicated to keep straight when you add in dimensions as well as timelines.

Open your book 3 beta EPUB and search for “mirror”.[/quote]
I must be blind because I don’t see mention of Orcus’s father. Step-father may be Aetherius, but birth father (unless like it was like Dis)?
Well, the argument that Mikey was making before this was something akin to he is his own father. Or something a bit more complex.
But the key is, as Phaestus said. You can’t really trust these stories.
In some accounts it is Ares. But again, hard to know.

You’re right, I was sure that it was revealed in the Memory Mirror scene, but it wasn’t.
Any interesting guesses? The Baroness of Chaos?
Everytime I think Ares I can’t help but picture Kevin Smith from Hercules the Legendary Journey and Xena: Warrior Princess. Bad-ass leather; kept getting his ass beat. Eris was his fetish sidekick in those shows wasn’t she?

As an architect and a consultant, one of my key attributes is appearing more clever than I really am, so that people interpret my stupid screw-ups as some sort of inscrutable genius.
In the end, what people believe is more real, than what is.

[quote=Iume;5438]Wrong Kevin Smith. I mean this one: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0808963/%5B/quote%5D
What the hell? They made a movie out of Riverworld? And I haven’t seen it?
