So, in THH, Exador says, "Actually, things are much simpler now; there is nothing left to hide. The gloves are coming off. We are going to seize the book from Lenamare and the Council even if we have to flatten Freehold to do it."
This sounds as if all three are about the gear up and flatten Freehold sooner, rather than later. At the same time, The Inferno is preparing to depart for the Abyss, and the Nimbus is closing in. Lilith is currently reeling from her defeat, but she was using secret resources, not her public resources, so she's only inconvenienced. While timing is still nebulous, it appears there could be up to three assaults at around the same time, in different places. Exad'oh and company on Freehold, The Inferno on the Courts of Chaos, and Lilith on Mount Doom.
If Ramalama and friends attack Freehold in force, I can see Damien requesting support and help from Tom. Maybe Vaselle as well? I doubt Tom would be able to throw away Vaselle like Orcus did his warlocks. I doubt he'd send all his forces to help, but a few hundred D'orcs could make a difference.
If the Inferno approaches the Courts, they'll likely try to serve warrants, finding out about Tom and Mount Doom. There'll be questions on whether they'll treat with Sammael or Lilith. Could go a couple of different ways there, but end result is them headed toward Doom as well. Lilith is likely to coordinate an attack at the same time. Of course, they could just start attacking, in which case, they'd go up against everyone there at the time. Likely deadly to them, but I don't see that happening at the moment.
The Nimbus. That's an odd one. It appears they have a link there in Murgatroy, and may be able to cross over to the Abyss from there. Not sure, though. Guess it depends on if they force or trick Gastrope' to summon Tizzy. Or they could continue their search for Bess. Really sounds like they're zeroing in on Mount Doom, though.
Speaking of the Nyjyr Ennead, they just moved some forces, so they may be on the move as well. But will they focus on Astlan, or Tierhallon? Either way, it seems Bess and Tom are starting to circle each other, so they may be meeting up soon, possibly dragging Doom into their conflict.
And then there's Djinnistan. Exfoliant just declared war on the entire djinn race, as the djinn re-established relations with Doom. Will the djinn focus on Freehold, or Doom? I think for them, Doom is lower priority item. Exadoofus made himself very unpopular with them, so likely they'll concentrate more on Freehold.
Argh, so many questions! |
