Quantus:

--- Quote from: wizard nelson on July 08, 2015, 09:59:00 PM ---We can't link N and Lucy but we can link the Advesary in its self same role. Like its a broad term and nonspecific but it's still a denomination af a specific thing. Other times in DF it's been said of things as 'their adversary'. A way to specify it as apposite to a specific thing. By calling it THE adversary you note a specific thing applied across a broad whole. E.g. Hannible was the adversary of Rome, he could have been called as much and it fits, later(iirc) Spartacus became Romes most notorious adversary. And since he's fulfilling the same role, Romans calling him the adversary makes sense. Lucy was the adversary, now literally everything seems to be stalked as Lea put it by the same 'adversary' so regardless it's filling th same role even if it's not quite the same. Same mantle different human memory attached to it.

--- End quote ---
True, but I think hope that will all prove relative.  Lucy was and and even THE Adversary, but he's still from the Home Town.  Ditto Nic.  Im hoping they will each grow up and throw in against whatever pours though the Gates. 

wizard nelson:
In the early books it was still undefined what was NN and what was demon outsider, there's a connection there somehow. And if Nemesis Greek is Nfector then she might actually be from here too, or maybe WAS from here idk. Hard to say. I still view summer as a counterweight to mab instead of a counterforce, that creates balance in action here, so that N there doesn't get as much force/room to move
