What might the Emissary be?

[The Mad hatter]

first age solor sounds almost belivable, so it has to be wrong...


Me im holding out for him to be a remmanate of autochmans systems that was left behind like the eye, and it isnt really working for the councile, it just awoke, saw laws, and in the absence of any other running directives or new information latched onto the laws and begun to enforce them

 

[Cthulhu_Wakes]

That's actually a theory I've bounced around for a while.

 

[The Mad hatter]

woohoo, two of us have a simlar idea.. we must be right

 

[Samiel]

Oh no! A Union!

 

[The Mad hatter]

thats right, your reality belongs to us now!!


though it dose kinda make sense... a subruotine in absence of any existing commands latching onto a set of directives that serve as orders for a controled enviroment (sorta) and with his level of power...

 

[Persell]

Which would explain why he is only active in Nexus, and not beyond the city boundaries.

 

[Flagg]

I think the Emissary is a cyborg sent from the future to kill John Connor.


-S

 

[Forn Clakes]

Now that's just silly.  Cyborg from the future...what will he think of next.

Not to be totally confused or anything, but well, I am confused so The little piece of a hint of a clue to figuring out the answer to my question is just not enough as i still don't understand it.


Someone asked where does it say that the Emissary killed or fought a 3rd circle demon.


The response is..."In the novel"


But which novel? chosen of the Sun? the Dragon one, the dawn one, the twilight novel (Can you tell i don't know the titles?).


I haven't read them, stupid FLGS, and thus would like more information, please.


This is interesting to me, but i don't know if I want to go to a lot of trouble just to find a minor line in a book about a reference to some long lost battle that takes up a half a line in the book.


Is there more?


Is there a reason for the secrecy, or is it really just not that impressive a writing or what? I don't know, and I apologize if I come off as rude in any way.

 

[Solfi]

It was in the novel A Day as Dark As Night.


... and that same demon hints at intimate knowledge of the Emissary's "once-master".


The relevant passage is on pages 276-278.

 

[Samiel]

Yea... questions questions, eh? I just had a great idea from that, thanks. I'd forgotten that line.

 

[DownwardSpiral]

Someone once suggested that the Emissary is a 3rd circle demon.  Not just any 3rd circle demon, but one of the souls of the Ebon Dragon.  The part of him that wants to be free of its prison.  The Emissary escaped Malfeas, finding the freedom it had always craved, and realized that if it freed the Ebon Dragon (the rest of it anyway) it would no longer be free of him.  Thus it has left its master to rot in Malfeas.


Of course, that also means that the Emissary would oppose anyone trying to free the Yozis, because it doesn't want to be merged back into the Ebon Dragon.

 

[Cthulhu_Wakes]

Funny I thought Benjamin Sisko was the Emissary PP

 

[DeepFlowingRiver]

Downward spiral,


That kind of makes sense as the plot in A day as dark as night. I won't get into details but the way he acts would kind of go with that. I thought it might be the empress as well...with the ebon dragon's help. I don't have much to back that up on but it was an interesting thought.
