>No, it can't be, Bakker thought, his breath catching in his throat. He was in the field in front of his cuckshed, tending to his basedbean plants when the creature appeared, towering above him with an obscene smile on its lipless mouth.
>"Oh yes it can, Dunyain" the monstrosity said in a sibilant tone. The Aspect-Author audibly gasped. There seemed to be no escape from the Inchoroi and as more panicked thoughts raced through his mind, the creature's smile widened. Bakker dropped the hoe he had been using and ran towards his cuckshed but in the blink of an eye the abomination was there, blocking his path to salvation.
>It straightened in front of him, stretching to its full wingspan, its caricature of a human face luridly peeking through a maw lined with sharpened teeth.
>"Why do you fear me so, Dunyain? I come from a race of lovers, and all I wish is to spread love."
>Bakker let out a little cry as the Inchoroi grabbed him by the shoulders, lifting him bodily. The creature pulled him closer in a terrible embrace and he gagged with the smell of the mutilated pieces of human bodies adorning its flesh. The Aspect-Author felt something big, rising slowly and pushing against his legs, parting them. A moment ago, he was dangling off the ground in the monster's hold, but now he was straddling a solid object, as if suspended in the air. Bakker looked down, baffled, and almost fainted from terror. The Inchoroi's phallus, even as it was beginning to harden, was so thick and strong it managed to bear his weight.
>"N-no, you can't!" pleaded the Canadian, "it's biologically impossible! My insides will be crushed!"
>It laughed, a curious and surprisingly clear note coming from such a vile being.
>"Worry not Dunyain, for we are the masters of the flesh. These things are not impossible for us."
>Without warning, the creature lifted the Aspect-Author to allow his curved and monstrous phallus to raise vertically, briefly poking itself in the belly. It then impaled Bakker brutally, its massive erection tearing effortlessly through his favorite gardening shorts. What occurred inside him was hard to describe; all at once, his entire body was filled with warmth and a burning lust. His eyes crossed and rolled back in their sockets, his head bobbing like a broken puppet. His tongue dangled from his mouth and only incoherent moans of ecstasy came out of it. This made the Inchoroi utter its peculiar laugh again.
>"I accept your surrender, Dunyain."

Feminism, in my rape monster novels?
>“And you tell yourself,” Kellhus continued, “‘These tracks I will not follow!’ Perhaps you refuse certain perversities. Perhaps you refuse to kiss. You pretend to scruple, to discriminate, though the world has forced you onto trackless ground. The coins! The coins! Coins for everything, and everything for coins! For the landlord. For the apparati, when they come for their bribes. For the vendors who feed you. For the toughs with scabbed knuckles. And secretly, you ask yourself, ‘What could be unthinkable when I’m already damned? What act lies beyond me, when I have no dignity?’

I've been working my way through the Malloreon after finishing up Belgariad a week or two ago or whenever it was, and I can't believe it took til Sorceress of Darshiva, the second to last book, for Eddings to finally realize that after giving the main character Garion the ability to transform into a wolf through sorcery like 5 or 6 books ago, that it would be awfully cute and sentimental if he turned into a doggo in his family's presence for cute pets and scratches.

Not really, and I said 40k not fantasy.

Star wars has very few segments as absurd as 40k. Hive cities house trilliobns of people and they are pretty common. Commorragh extends infinitely making hive cities look like grains of sand compared to a mountain. Craftworlds are continent sized and there are hundreds of them. A single space marine can run at 50 mph and take a shot from a canon. Each planet is pretty much it's own setting.

There is nothing else like this and even more there is nothing that isn't as hopeless and grimdark. The only thing that comes close is magic the gathering, but that universe isn't nearly as well explored.

Fantasy has become pozzed by women moving into it, like all hobbies and niches.

The wokeness has gotten so bad that D&D is trying to get rid of racism because people think orcs are too much like niggers, which is of course true, especially in porn.

And then of course there is just the huge market of fantasy written by women for women. It's really no wonder that noone cares about male fantasy writers anymore when most of them have been neutered.

There's no point in comparing powers(I'd rank the absolute top power level in Earwa to be around Rank 4, MAYBE 5)
If we're comparing mindset, like if you swapped the two of them and compared their progress, it becomes more interesting.
Kellhus is smarter, WAY smarter, but I'd say his ability to read people's faces is about on par with Fang Yuan's understanding of the human heart. They're both about equally good at manipulating people and making longterm plans.
They'd both probably be fucked in eachother's universes though. Fang Yuan relies on assloads of specialized knowledge and he NEEDS it to succeed. Kellhus, no matter how smart he is, won't get very far without a lot of extremely difficult to acquire information.
On the other hand, he'd probably be able to pull it off without enough luck and time.
Fang Yuan though, I don't know. He's totally fucking insane really, he may seem somewhat logical on the surface, but the motivations behind his actions are entirely inhuman. Even the Dunyain are more comprehensible and reasonable! Bu then again, Kellhus is totally nuts by the end too.

Even assuming he had it all planned out beforehand it's insane. The only thing that makes sense to me is doing it in phases, planning and writing each chunk all at once with multiple drafts, and then drip feeding 1000 words a day. If so, that's at least 2000 words a day average, maybe significant'y more, with maybe 10,000 a day actual speed with planning days and breaks. For like three straight years.

Why did the Ordeal take the longest, most direct route (red) across the Istyuli instead of either progressing along the coasts to have guaranteed access to water from tributaries (blue) or even trying to cross the Leash (green)? At least that way they'd be able to forage effectively. For that matter why didn't they just secure sea passage via the coasts of Zeum, in whole or in part? Kellhus would absolutely be able to convince Zeum's leadership if he had time, and at minimum the strength of the Nansur fleets was well-established.

Because the last leg of the ordeal being fueled by the Meat was part of Kellhus' master plan. He calculated their supplies and forage would run out around Irsûlor which would give him about 2-3 weeks to reach Golgotterath with a Meat-charged host before it completely disintegrated. Careful, sustainable and effective foraging was never part of his plan. As far as Zeüm and a sea invasion, well, that would have been an entirely different story anon.

The complete sea route is completely impractical, it would be insanely long, require an unfeasible number of ships, require the complete submission of Zeum, which would require a war that rivals the Ordeal itself, and even then storms will wreck at least part of the thing even under ideal circumstances, and might even destroy all.

The blue line is 50% longer than the red one and offers no benefit. Either case the sranc would deny all forage.

The green route would lead through dense forests teeming with millions of sranc, who would eat the Ordeal alive, and then they'd arrive at a sea they have no good way of crossing, they would have to split the ordeal while they camp and slowly ferry people across, assuming the weather plays nice. IRL the channel between the UK and France was considered extremely risky to pass for entire seasons before modern times due its stormy weather. That route is likely also not at all reconnoitered. In addition to that it wouldn't even be shorter or offer any other benefits.

A straight line was really the least bad option.

Kellhus' darkness at work:

- takes Serwe and genuinely values her
- takes Esmi and genuinely values her
- picks up Esmi and brings the kid he knows is insane, just to appease her
- leaves Cnaiur alive after he teaches him war

I think it's reasonably well established that women are what his darkness is most influential with, but I also think that he did feel bad for Cnaiur and respected him more than other worldborn men. To the degree an emotional cripple like him could anyway.

The thing with Kellhus is, that he can't not manipulate people. He sees through them, so everything he does is done with that knowledge. Everything is necessarily a manipulation if you know what outcome every action, every word, or every inaction will have.

Also he couldn't love her like Akka could, he was cold and reptilian in his affection for her. It was only significant for someone like Kellhus who is pathologically callous otherwise.

That's true, but unlike the Nansur fleet, the Ordeal fleet would ship with a large contingent of their own gnostic mages. Is an enemy mage more dangerous to ships than to foot soldiers? I don't know. The Cishaurim absolutely obliterate regular soldiers, killing thousands in seconds.

[Anonymous No.17798081]

>>17798048
Akka’s love of Esmi seemed extremely possessive imo. He saw her as a prize to wrest from other men. Kellhus may not have been able to “love” her, but he did go out of his way to protect her and try to make her happy (like saving Kelmomas). Ultimately his simping for her, and her womanish irrationality, leads to Resumption and the end of humanity.

I don’t really know what the takeaway is, but it’s much more nuanced and interesting than your average good vs. evil Tolkien knockoff high fantasy.

Akka saw Esmi as his lesser, which is why Kellhus teaching her how to read and saying that women are inherently intellectually equal to men and only inferior because of circumstance worked so well. If akka hadn't told Esmi that women are incapable of higher thought and taught her to read, Kellhus wouldn't have had that lever.

Still, I do think Akka did genuinely love Esmi. He was merely a man of his world, conditioned to think like this.

>He saw her as a prize to wrest from other men
I think he was just troubled when she slept with other men, which is completely normal and healthy. No sane person feels good about their partner being intimate with others. Of course it's more complicated, because he also didn't offer her an alternative.

There's also the part during his conditioning as a child when the one thing that distracts him is a glacier reminding him of a woman's hip or something. That foreshadows this aspect of his personality and one of the reasons for his downfall.

He didn't think she belonged to him, he liked her and as a result was sickened by the thought of her being with other men. He didn't try to stop her or anything, because he rationally recognized that she was right to do it.

Which is interesting, because he should never have seen a woman's hip, I think.

I think this Darkness is possibly an echo of his Anasurimbor strain's Nonman rape heritage

He might have seen a whale mother before, but who knows what those look like. I wonder whether they are even attractive. What we find attractive is basically hard coded, so maybe it was an echo of that. I think it was just foreshadowing without too much thought about the mechanics of why he could think of that based on his lived experiences.

So got this book off a rec on /tg/, was told didn't need to read the other book in the series.

Out of curiosity, is there more fleshed out in the other book for this one? I'm only a few chapters in but there seems to be a lot of world building and important characters that seem to be implied I should know who the fuck they are.

I can't tell if this is just because there's a theme around legends and fables, and these are supposed to be unknown famous figures of the past I shouldn't know about. Or if I should know about these events and its because I didn't read the other book that I didn't pick up on them.

2 parts.
1. Was generally looking for books with female protagonist. (Which is how I found it)
2. Would have read the first one for general world building but the store only had this one.
Could order it off Amazon if I wanted. But was told it wasn't really connected. And my backlog is big enough I don't want to pointlessly add unless I love the book.
