Might be a worth-while topic “if” Selkie was part of the society, but she is not right now. And if Gien keeps pushing, she’ll probably decide to never be part of it.
isn’t it “interesting” that Te-Vahn calls Gien “Whisper” to his face?
is that some sort of reference to the Sarnothi equivalent of someone that is “the-power-behind-the-throne” ya know, kinda like he’s the one that’s always whispering in somebody’s ear, trying to get them to do what the whisperer wants them to do… or behind someone else’s back…
It’s a rank of local authority. The Head of a Clan is called the Voice. Smaller area leadership is referred to as Whisper. The title means Gien is the acknowledged head of the local area Jin’Sorai.
Just realized Gien and Scar are polar opposites and if they don’t someday have a climatic battle for the sake of the world I will be sorely disappointed/permission to email me for free help depicting said climactic battle
Yes, her social responsibility. Kinda like the social responsibility that the Echo who betrayed her mother and countless other sarnothi displayed? I’m sure that will go over FANTASTIC.
C’mon, now! It’s o.k. To vacate all human decency and moral rectitude to aid your government in the persecution of any unfavorable sub group or groups,… which may or may not be one of the four pillars of your society.
“Then he got an idea. An *awful* idea. The Gien had a wonderful, AWFUL idea…”
Now part of me wants to see Gien do a straight-up Grinch smile. The other half of me remembers that that would probably be absolutely terrifying.

Gien is really flexing those asshole muscles. With the current feels Selkie and Todd are getting from Scar that is probably gonna backfire.

Considering Scar is an Echo and Gien is not it would not be a battle, just an execution.
But if it turns into that kind of battle, Scar has already lost.
My mind went to Sense8 for the Whisper reference.

Right?
I mean isn’t that what we have now?
