Talk:Chimera

Open Questions
There's plenty we don't yet know. For example: Just some things to think about; we might find out more in time. Wyvern. (talk) 09:10, January 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * How long did the Chimera exist before the apocalypse? Did the priests lose control right away, when it was first used, or even years later?
 * Why Brandi and Bud? Brandi was an ordinary young Lanthian woman and Bud was brought in from far away; why them?
 * Who, centuries later, managed to split the Chimera into the golem girls? (Tepoz wasn't very clear on this: http://wapsisquare.com/comic/everybitasdangerous/ ) And was Tepoz chosen as their guardian because he was the only other available golem, or for some other reason?
 * Why did the Lanthian priests think they needed an unstoppable super-weapon anyway? Where they actually facing some problem so far over the Godzilla Threshold that making the Chimera was a rational response?


 * All good questions, all of them unanswered, except for minor details like it was Glyph Readers who divided the Golem Girls from the Chimera, Mayahuel being one of them. In myth, Bellerophon and Pegasus (Euryale's nephew) defeated the Chimera.


 * Also, bear in mind that anything Tepoz has said up to this point could be a lie or misinformation fed him from Jin, Kukulcan, or others that wanted to push him around. A lot of his story isn't matching up on the Chronology, and the Golem Girls were playing dumb early on, too, so I think we have awhile to wait before we get the whole story.

 * That it was some Glyph reader(s) was obvious; recently I ran across a reference that it was the Timekeepers, including Mayahuel. Bud was in a position to know - but the discussion got derailed with questions unanswered. Tepoz isn't the most reliable source, even among a whole crowd with long histories and complicated agendas - and have you noticed he's not been seen around much lately? Great point about the Chimera; I hadn't wondered what Euryale and her sister were up to during the Chimera Apocalypse... Wyvern. (talk) 09:34, January 12, 2013 (UTC)
