Silverfox -> Icarium?

When i read this poem on the website (from Gardens of the Moon), after re-reading part of Deadhouse Gates, I made a conection...

Beyond these thin hide walls a child sits, before her on worn silk a Deck is arrayed. She cannot yet speak and the scenes before her she's never before seen in this life. The child gazes upon a lone card named Obelisk, the stone grey she can feel its roughness in her mind. Obelisk stands buried in a grassy knoll like a knuckle protruded from the eart, past and future. This child's eyes are wide with terror, for cracks have appeared in the stone of stones and she knows the shattering is begun. -- Silverfox - Outrider Hurlochel, 6th Army

Makes me wonder, in DG, Icarium is connected to the Obelisk, as past, present and future. The cracks must mean that the "armor" protecting the rest of the world from his rather savage powers is starting to collapse. After that the "shattering" will occur. Any ideas?
