i love coronabeth tridentarius. she’s tall, buffed, blonde, gorgeous, self obsessed, insufferable but the unreliable narrators make it seem otherwise, has big hair, big boobs and a sword, loves her sister, pretty girls and eating people, definitely was the worst roommate to camilla hect, wishes death upon anyone who doesn’t find her irresistible, had her name translated to crown him with many crowns and a whole meltdown because her sister didn’t devour her to become a godlike being, went as a (useless) plus one to a necromancy competition to stay close to her twin just to be separated from her at the end, is in love with a dying woman and had a terrible time coming in terms with that fact… i would let her eat me if she called me cute honestly

thinking about how harrow comes from ‘harrowing of hell’ which is jesus saving the dead and hark comes from a xmas song that announces the arrival of a new king “Born that man no more may die Born to raise the sons of earth Born to give them second birth”. how gideon is basically jesus and named after a guy from the bible who rejected the offer to become a king. how alecto is john’s devil and harrow’s first love and, as nona, thought she was pretty with harrow’s face and yellow eyes — hers and gideon’s eyes! — and perfect lyctorhood involves exchanging eye colors. how griddlehark are technically married and both from the first house (harrowhark the first and kiriona gaia) and since gideon is recognized as the emperor’s heir then if something happens to him, she’d be the new king undying (impenetrable skin, walking corpse) and harrow her spouse, except gideon from the bible didn’t become a king and the entire point of gideon’s existence is harrow and how could she be the emperor of necromancers if she isn’t a necromancer herself? she wants a family, she wants love, she wants harrow, she wants to be the cavalier of the king and she could get all of this if harrow was the king.

but what about the RBs? something is up with cassiopeia and if she and other og lyctors came back (as suggested by the lyrics of Hark the Herald Angels Sing) they could solve it all. they could solve the imperfect lyctorhoods with something like paul or by rebuilding the cavs, idk. what i Know, however, is that the stage is set and i want to see what fucked up shit tamsyn will bring to the table.

so cristabel is a nun, described as a religious fanatic by augustine, someone who clearly knew that suicide is a unforgivable sin and yet, she did it twice.

the house founded as a monument to her is “eight for salvation no matter the cost”. a house known for soul syphon and procreation to offer the children as juice boxes, things that would be considered heinous by christians.

the last head of said house is also a religious fanatic and can be easily associated with the concept of a fake prophet, for the lies he tells callum as he tries to convince him that what they’re doing is right and for his claims about knowing the truth regarding gideon’s mom.

and lastly the founder of the house, mercymorn the first. an atheist pre-resurrection. someone who betrayed god and destroyed his body in an attempt to kill him after grieving her bestie for a myriad.

grief in christianity is represented by the black people wear at funerals. mercymorn lived her entire lyctorhood in grief and yet, the color of the eighth house is white.
