|

|
||
> Um. Is this just going to keep escalating? This has basically been an unbroken series of momentous and shattering reveals. I think the story has to get grounded in the next part or else it's gonna lead to burn-out. If you were editing this for a book, I'd tell you that you need to space it out more.

> The ritual calls her a daughter of even, then a child of even, but calls him son of atoms both times. If that inconsistancy isn't explicitly intentional, it should be tweaked to be made consistent.

|
||
>>
|
||
>> Yes. It's gotta be both evening and balance, given the sex-positive, lust-focused, single-sexed but complexly-gendered succubi. And that contrasts neatly with son of atoms, given that he's from the land of mundane physics. Also, this gender thing probably explains the flip-flopping between child and daughter.
|
||
|
||
>> **u/xamueljones** [+2] *My arch-enemy is entropy* (a day later)
|
||
>>
|
||
>> I think "son of atoms" is supposed to be "son of Adam" and "daughter of even" is supposed to be "daughter of Eden". It's a clever twist on biblical names except atoms and even are English words. It doesn't make sense that people misheard two English names for two Hebrew names. I mean why would the succubi have been speaking in English centuries or millennia before modern (or maybe Old) English appeared? Or maybe it's a hint about something funny going on language and the reason Blue can understand others isn't due to magical translation, but because everyone really are speaking English.

|
||
>> Don't worry, given the lifecycle of succubi it's *very unlikely*[1] that you'd get such a creature around Sade Hall, especially one with long shaggy fur and a kind of doggy-looking face and the ability to shapeshift into a more...practical...form.
|

|
||
>> I mean, how would such a thing ever come to be?

|

> So what do the succubi from the other "domains" look like and what happens if someone incubates somewhere in between the differing types?
