Uzumaki/WMG: Difference between revisions

Line 30:

* Thirdly, Eisenhorn gives the suggestion that the surface of Ghul itself may have massive spirals. "The warped one's entire culture, certainly their language, had been built upon expressions of location and place. I imagined that the inscribed wall we had seen during the auto-séance had been part of just such a maze of lines, from a time when Promody had looked like Ghul, the capital world." Later, a small spiral is also described as "a really tiny version of the mazed surface of this planet." In Uzumaki, the corrupted inhabitants eventually rebuild the entire town in the shape of a spiral.

* Fourthly, when the archaeologist Kenzer was making a recording of the same small spiral on one of the walls, said spiral acted as some sort of doorway between different dimensions, with Ghul being so complex that it has more than three dimensions; that only certain points can act as entries or exits. Given this, we can assume that Yssarile's Barque has been exercising the same kind of power over the singular land tunnel linking Kurozu-Cho to the outer world. As the inhabitants gradually become more corrupt, it gains enough power to create a pocket dimension. Failing all else, how do you explain a black hole appearing in a girl's forehead?

* Fifthly, the Mausoleum of Ghul is vast beyond comprehension. The floor is also described to be made of stone. Time also malfunctions within the chamber, as Eisenhorn himself mentions. Obvious link here; the chamber of the Spiral Abomination was vast; [[Year Inside Hour Outside|Year Inside hour Outside]] in full force near the end. If Kirie's words are anything to go by, at the end Yssarile's Barque is capable of controlling time itself. Furthermore, the chamber is made with stone of petrified people. Eisenhorn may not have noticed this due to lack of light.

* Sixthly, the interior of the Mausoleum is covered with spiralling script (not surprisingly) and something the size of an Imperial Hive city of a geometric shape. That basically describes how Kirie views the Spiral Abomination by the end of Uzumaki.

Well, that covers the basics of the link. Three more questions to be covered, though.

* Firstly, why were the effects in Uzumaki not apparent on Eisenhorn's team? We can safely assume that this was because they were never exposed to the full power of Yssarile's Barque; only the periphery effects. All they ever had was indirect contact, and even when Eisenhorn was near it he was too busy fighting Glaw... and a singular fight with Glaw will never take up as much time as The Barque had been hiding under Kurozu-Cho. What we see in Uzumaki is the true power of corruption an artefact of a Chaos/warp god can unleash. Yes, it is not pretty.

* Secondly, how did the Barque get under the town in the first place? Well, given how the Imperial Navy annihilated the planet (i.e. blew it up); we can say that its unique multi-dimension quality means fragments of the planet travel through space and time! Due to [[Timey Wimey Ball|the Timey Wimey-ness of this]], it is entirely possible for Yssarile's Barque to be underneath Kurozu-Cho even before Earth was created.

Due to [[Timey-Wimey Ball|the Timey Wimey-ness of this]], it is entirely possible for Yssarile's Barque to be underneath Kurozu-Cho even before Earth was created.

* Thirdly, why is it the Barque that survives the Imperial bombardment? Well, it IS a remnant artefact of a warp god, and they would be savvy enough to have a plan B. For most warp gods, this boils down to finding a method to consume enough souls to regenerate. Given the amount of power it exerts over the people of Kurozu-Cho, I'd say it is well on its way to recovery.
