8 “hook up the cables and get the power flowing” White Key. 8th House. Mercy/Cris Lab. Avulsion/Siphon Trial. Harrow Solved.

Notes:

Key colours match house colors.

Trial themes match original lyctors/houses not new house/necro specialties (cyth mentions theyre all mixed up/wrong) for this reason i am skeptical of the justification of the third house bein the eat people one just cause ianthe does it a bunch.

Im adding quotes of ianthes description of the process but my attachment is uncertain it feels more accurate to the trial and i dont think ianthe is listing them in the same order some ppl have attributed?

i am considering mixing around all the ** ones considering 5th house as speakers to the dead/river experts vs 4th being very comfortable with than/thal transfer as first on a battlefield to cause a bloom, isaacs discomfort with the soulvibes of the labs, and their mentorship by the 5th. Plus im not sure which quote fits the winnowing trial best and honestly i feel like muir changed smthn and left a slightly corrupted trail with the whole “pyras trial” mention in htn re: sinking into the river.


basically any ** means its total hearsay. everything else either has evidence or can be fairly reasonably assumed.
