Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
Not necessarily. Resurrection is only available as divine magic, but Control Weather can also be learned by wizards.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
I've just noticed that, despite Eugene's destruction of the report about V, that action seemingly had no consequence besides showing us more about Eugene's personality, because the first time Eugene finally talked to Roy after that, he already knew about V's deal with the IFCC.
PS: That is, unless the report had more intel than what we've seen so far about the IFCC, in which case Eugene was dumb for not reading it, at least.Each one of us, alone, is but a drop in the sea

Our battles don’t hit theheadlines or shake the earth
But they are few, can’t be everywhere, and we, many
So, when the world or universe needs saving, they come
But when people needs saving, we are the ones to appear
We're underdogs, but we rise up to the challenge to be heroes.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
I actually think there were some consequences. If Roy had learned about V's actions, he might have learned about the familicide spell, which he might then link to what happened to the Draketooth family afterwards. Therefore, instead of letting V run away into the pyramid, mistaking their distress for feeling sick, he would have followed V. V's presence for the encounters with the Linear guild would greatly change how things progressed from then on.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
I agree that there were consequences of Roy waving away the Deva with the intel, assuming it was about Belkar. My point is that, after that, the Deva gave the intel to Eugene, asking that, next time he talk with Roy, he would give it to him, and then Eugene procceded to destroy the report. However, next time Eugene managed to talk to Roy, it was only after the Godsmoot (because he couldn't talk to Roy during the Pyramid episode), and Roy already knew about V and the IFCC then.
In other words, the action that seems without consequences to me until now is not Roy not receiving the intel at that moment, is Eugene's destruction of the report (because, looking now in retrospect, he didn't talk to Roy until much after he already knew the truth).Last edited by D.One; 2018-11-12 at 03:53 PM.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
Couldn't Eugene have contacted Roy before Girard's Gate, though? I don't remember if we have seen Roy alone between that and his resurrection?

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
Apparently getting the starmetal added to the sword makes it much harder for Eugene to manifest.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
That was a fan theory for a while; the explanation Eugene gave for why he hadn't manifested in so long was entirely unrelated.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
From the moment Roy was arrested in the Empire of Blood and foward, there were probably few to no moments where he was alone for the contact to work. It's the lack of contact before that that is more puzzling, because during the trip to the Western Continent, Eugene might have had the opportunity. That said, it didn't happen, either because Eugene couldn't or because he didn't want to.

I just noticed that in #665, when Roy is resurrected, the cloth he wears is Vaarsuvius's cloak.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
Looks like a towel to me. If it was actual clothing why would Roy wrap it around his waist rather than wear it?

Please. V would never do something as pedestrian as 'wash'. Magic is the solution to every problem (specifically, prestidigitation).

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
I just got that the giant worm, and the spice, is a reference to Dune.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VI: The Undiscovered Detail
Also Belkar is most likely actually reading Dune .
On the somewhat unrelated topic, I never noticed that Durkon is creating a clock with magic.
