While the main players are gathering in the foreground to fight over Girard's gate, the IFCC is sitting of in the sidelines, unnoticed and nearly undiscussed. Their end goals are enigmatic and hard to understand, but I think something crucial involving them might happen soon, considering what we know right now. In many ways, the current SNAFU is organized by them, and I wonder how much they knew beforehand and how much they know now. They only just recently learned about the gates from Sabine after Nale did, but we know they are in close enough contact with Tiamat that the dragon goddess was able to recognize their hand in Familicide and then clog up several of their phone lines. One wonders then how factors like Girard being in the ABD's family factored into their pre-splice analysis. If they're in contact with Tiamat, they could have even set the whole thing up through the Oracle, though I think a technical analysis of kobold dust might not be appropriate here.
However, we do know that the IFCC are careful planners, and I wonder with some of their pawns (the Linear Guild) distracting the order on one side, if they aren't going to collect their due on V's soul sometime in the near future. Remember, the around 2 hours total time they got collectively on V's soul is more than enough for their purposes, while the gates ritual takes a couple of weeks. Meanwhile, Team Evil is looming in the distance after finally getting done moving their asses in response to V's soul splice.
Anyways, even though these guys have been kinda background in the whole plot, it seems like a lot of their "pieces" are moving into place. What does anybody here think they're doing, and why are they doing it?
