Some curious things in Summer Knight

<< < (11/11)

Bad Alias:
Jim has hinted that adding Summer power to Winter would not have had the effect of making Winter stronger. More of an explosion effect.

Cf.
--- Quote ---sapph42: Could the Summer Court bestow the Mantle of the Summer Knight (is that capitalization all correct?) on someone who held the Mantle of the Winter Knight? What would holding both Mantles do to a person? If it is possible, and is not fatal, how would such a person resolve their conflicting obligations? Would they still have obligations if they lived, but no longer held the Mantle(s)?
Jim: 2) That’s a fascinating question. I think they /could/, but it would do horrible things to the head of the person who got it. Reuniting two things that were meant to be divided just cannot be good for the person standing around when it happens… (Jim has also compared this to a matter/anti-matter reaction.  #203)

The parenthetical is a dead link to the WoJ I was thinking about.

I think there was also some text in the book, to the effect that the Queens DID have a solution, were it to happen -- the "blow things all to flinders, and let them settle out."

I think the implication is a century or three (or more) of ice-age or tropical greenhouse effect, and no Knights (because that level of things has been blown to flinders), and then things settle out, with the Knight Mantles sort of "returning home" to their original places (likely the Mothers rather than the Queens)...  But this is just my guess.
