Current Issues
[edit]- The Oracle's remaining predictions are:
- The last gate is to be checked out – O-Chul and Lien already went to Kraagor's Gate in the North.[4]
- Roy was dead; his archon is doing something for him when he's gone?[5]
- Favours from Shojo: Miko has lost her purse containing a message from Durkon's dwarven homeland. (Durkon had written a letter to be sent to the High Priest of Thor, asking to be allowed to return and see his grandparents; the former High Priest died and the new one would allow him to come home, but the Creature in the Darkness ate the letter. His grandfather is already dead.)[6]
- Xykon will be defeated within seven weeks from the end of Don't Split the Party.[7]
- The Linear Guild are actually the pawns of the IIFC.[8]
- There are nine sides to this conflict, one of which will become known in the fifth book.
