I’d like to know what Talarius is gonna do. I mean, it’s just been confirmed *SPOILERS BELOW* that his God knew what they were doing in Naajar, Noatar, and those places but did nothing. Also, he’s been declared an “Apostle of Doom.” Is he gonna leave Tiernon to work for Tom? Or is he gonna stay with Tiernan to see if he (Tiernon) can redeem himself in his (Talarius’s) eyes?
It is going to be interesting…
First things first, will be finding an rescuing Melissance, he implied that in Book III, and I happen to have overheard him in Book IV.
Of course finding one person in the vastness of the Abyss may prove tricky, although, from Book III, apparently not as tricky as I would have thought.
I will say that there are going to be a number of shifting loyalties in Book IV
Incidentally see the BB/ button up above, that will insert codes for things like [SPOILER]Spoilers[/SPOILER]
Honestly if you are not wanting spoilers about book three I would not recommend going to a forum dedicated to book four.
But I for one am really excited to see what happens with the TALK that is going to happen after the fight on Nysgaurd!! I mean come one there was all that good tension when Tom walked into the planning room and Bugramus practically acknowledged all of the wrong doings and Dogma that has been spread around about Orcus.
MMMMM do I smell some holy Arcons on a hot seat!![quote=Zeravar;6607]I’d like to know what Talarius is gonna do.

I don’t remember Talarius being made an Apostle of Doom. Did I miss that? Well, I’m halfway through a re-read of Bk3. I’ll just be sure and mark it when I see it this time.
It was not so much an anointing as Darflow Skragnarth sort of making that leap in describing his role in leading Doom’s charge against the Storm Lords, rather freaked poor Hilda out! [flapper]
Here are my options for what happens to Talarius:
1 – He remains a loyal, if much more critical, and vocal member of the Rod
2 – He switches loyalty to Tommus
3 – He becomes a member of the El Ohim, seeing as that’s about the only method that gods can be officially taken to task.
4 – He becomes Mellisance’s personal foot rubber
5 – Due to a refusal, or inability to accept all of the Truths that’s been dumped on him, he decides to throw logic out the window and become a disciple of Tizzy. Ruiden assumes golem form and becomes a scarecrow in Tizzy’s weed garden.[quote=Christopher Cope;6616]Here are my options for what happens to Talarius:

1- Likely. Though I think he’ll be MUCH more critical. In fact, this may be the best outcome for the Rod.
2- Possible. He really is starting to see Tom as a model of Honor.
3- Possible, but I don’t see this as likely. Just doesn’t seem in character. Not at the moment, anyway.
4- No. That train has left the station. For him, and especially for her. Her Stabby Toy, maybe.
5- ROFLMAO.I’ll as soon say to wait and see, so i would. However 1 and 2, in terms of criticality and at the very least following Tom until he sorts himself out.
This is making Book 4 seem much more interesting….. hmmmm, could there possibly be a plot twist where Talarius dies and is brought back as a Demon of Doom?
8-[
Also, thanks Tizzy for the hints on how to hide spoilers.[quote=Zeravar;6624]This is making Book 4 seem much more interesting….. hmmmm, could there possibly be a plot twist where Talarius dies and is brought back as a Demon of Doom?

I don’t think even Tom could say that it wouldn’t be funny though he does seem a bit more interested in his wardrobe in AoD…..
Well, since Doom doesn’t do resurrections that would be our only option to get him back.
Of course, he can’t die in the Abyss, so it would have to happen on a material plane at which point it’s a race between Tom and Hilda to see who gets to him first!
She (or any of the other avatars or major priests–Teragdor, Iskerus) could ressurrect him normally, Tom would have to D’Orc him.
Hmm, writing that down and seeing it in print, it just struck me for the first time in 70,000 years that that may sound a little obscene. :-“

Of course, the problem with this is that we have no clue if Tiernon would directly intervene… though, I believe Hendel seems much more likely for a Divine Intervention and to act as an intermediary– oops, meant interlocutor. (Never know when an orc or D’Orc might get on) :-$
