I want to see a lyctor’s power limit. Harrow, diet lyctor, half a lyctor, only looked upon her lyctoral limits… once? maybe twice? and all times specifically in the context of seeing her limit stretching out so far before her it’s almost incomprehensible. and most of the Lyctor Stuff we see is like… The Real Housewives Of The Mithraeum. Fucking around, fucking eachother, and acting out a myriad of petty grievences. Even Mercy atomatizing God was more about… opportunity and a myriad of study, not raw power.
Augustine plunges the entire Mithraeum into the River and he still has enough power left over to fight God and grapple with the stoma. He doesnt even seem winded. And he wasn’t even the Lyctor River Expert! Mercymorn repairs Harrow’s obliterated body, that is a black hole to her, without even batting an eyelash. With only a few touches. Ianthe, a baby lyctor not even fully integrated yet, could fucking. teleport!!!! through pools of blood!!!! Harrow (diet lyctor) made a full construct out of diluted bone matter, from inside of G1deon’s body (one again!! a black hole to her!!), and she only had to concentrate so hard because she was 6 days without sleep. G1deon was a thanergy void, the ultimate enemy of a necromancer, and that didnt even seem to be a thing he had to exert effort to do. I don’t even have enough examples of lyctors doing Powerful Things to emphasize their sheer power but i know it’s there. rattling the bars of my cage!!! i want to see it!!!
