maybe hood is undead, that'd explain the irony and their surprise part, it wouldn't be "is he still alive?" but "is he alive again?" Posted Image

and no, I'm not that serious about the theory but it seems interesting

hood being jaghut works for me. he has made an appearance, QB pulls him into the mortal realm. gothos is an azath house keeper so i dont think its him tho. it was raest who wondered if hood was still alive when wondering if anyone in the world could oppose him i think

Also bear in mind that "upon the Throne of Ice sits Death" according to Feather witch. Gotta be a Jaghut.

In MoI Hood is described as tall which could imply Jaghut, Hood is also consistently descibed as a wanderer which also fits with a Jaghut theme. And because the Jaghut were near as wiped out by the Imass it would be very relevant for one of them to become King of High House Death.

Although Feather Witch's statement could refer to Hood taking all the Jaghut souls (by the Imass killing them) therefore Hood controls the Jaghut Realm.

And since the FA appear to be immortal -- to the extent that denying them food for hundreds of millennia doesn't cause them to die -- perhaps Hood was the first FA to introduce the concept of death to the world.)
