What SE did with Iccy was a stroke of genius!
And still... I had excpected something (I'M not sure wheter to put more or different here). He was such a force, such a potential both as a possible solution and as a threat.
It could be I just didn't get the whole picture of what Iccy did with the new warrens and what he became. And my need to be a part of Iccy's reaction when he finally found what he was looking for may have blinded me. But although I loved what SE did. something feels out of place. Maybe wer'e not compleatly finished with him? I don't know.
Please put my unease to rest by writing...something, ANYTHING!

I feel we have not seen the last of iccy... his arc has not yet been resolved if you ask me.
...┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐...

Why dont they make the whole plane out of that black box stuff?

yeah, its completely unresolved as far as i'm concerned. at the end when sulkit takes her new position as matron, she remarks on being alone once more. iccy left kalse uprooted, perhaps using the azath tree as a pathway to track down his father. it seems like he is not on the wastelands anymore, as mappo remarks on losing him again, that poor bastard. anyway i think iccy's story is yet to be completely told. i mean, he seems to have found his identity after spending the book as a ghost, but are his warrens going to restore his memories? seems likely, i think, and he's got new worshippers among the children of the snake. badalle calls him God, iirc.

speaking of which, someone in another thread was speculating on badalle, rutt and held being mortal sword, destriant and shield anvil (i don't think they put it in that order, but thats the order it should be in i think)of something, perhaps the kchain. but those roles are taken. i think theyre iccys SA, MS and D. if anyone is overdue to be a true god, its him.

also, SE writes the best bromances i've ever seen. iccy-mappo, trull-onrack, QB-kalam, etc

There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

Those are all gay. Tehol and Bugg however... :)

I loved what SE did with that weird Icarium city. Would love to read some wild theories about that thing. Jaghut living in peace, time captured in crystal, IS the city Icarium? BAH! I'm probably remembering this stuff wrong. Need more time on my hands so I can do a reread...

I think I listed this as a tCG crazy theory:

Iccy's new warrens will absorb all the damage done by the jade meteorites when they finally fall.

and no, I don't think his arc's finished, I think he'll have to get back to the city he's built at some point. His mind is whole, now, well sorta, and hopefully through the kids of the Snake Iccy may get himself healed.

Not so crazy IMO... but I rather think that Iccyīs warrens will take place of Krulīs because he will die (dunno why, how...just...die:))
