Notes on Contagion
The_Sibelis:
A sound thesis and certainly one of the major goals. And that's certainly a possibility. Including Nemesis itself as a walker is something we all, including myself have done automatically. But nothing has said Nemesis is the same as Beside. I've actually considered this previously when trying to count the 4 horsemen up with the walker's, but I thought that'd make five. But if Nemesis is a different thing from the three walkers altogether it'd make alot more sense.
Second Aristh:
My initial interpretation was that the three Walkers (Before, Behind, Beside=Nemesis) play a similar role as the Winter Knight does for Winter. "Regular" outsiders like the cornerhounds are like your run of the mill faeries. The Walkers play by a different set of rules.

He Who Walks Behind - Will ambush you
He Who Walks Before - Will confront you
He Who Walks Beside - Will corrupt you

Well actually I was wrong. It's in the text and I have no idea how I missed it. Beside is Nemesis by his own admission, unless he lied.

Yeah, Mira quoted it on the previous page of the thread.
I guess it could be argued that they all claim the name, or Beside was playing Sidhe-like games and playing into misconceptions about his nature.
After all, "Hoss I am called" is not the same as "My name is Hoss".
