Jeremiah and the Insequent

[sweetbread]

This was originally going to be posted in the construct thread, but I really didn't want to divert the topic anymore from it's original post, so it's getting a thread of it's own.

Along our discussion of the Insequent, Jeremiah, Jeremiah's powers, and time-travel, I have developed yet another theory. Bear with me....

The Land is full of Earthpower; the inhabitants have harnessed that power in the past to do amazing things. The Lords have harnessed that power to do some amazing things. The Clave, Ravers, Foul, Drool, ect, have all used power to achieve some really bad things. Even Covenant himself (and Linden) have used Wild Magic, the magic that destroys peace, to do some really amazing things. However, there has always been one thing in common; the puissance has always followed Laws (or broken Laws) within which they must be constrained. Even the Elohim, being Earthpower incarnate have been bound by many Laws.
Esmer is bound by the Law of his heritage. Fould is bound by the Law of time. Even the Creator himself is bound by his own Law of Time.

Now we learn of the Insequent, who are not bound by any Laws of the Land. They are bound by their own laws, but those are not of the Land. They each commit to their chosen powers, and have spent millennia honing and enhancing their powers. Yet, for all their might, they are specialists if you will. They each have their own unique form of power, which is reflected in everything from their names and attire, to their actions and abilities.

Yet, what of Jeremiah. He comes to the Land throughout various periods in time, periods which he shouldn't rightfully have access to. He has his own puissance that has never before been seen in the Land. It is a puissance which has reverberated into the real world (hence, his Lego constructs). Jeremiah knows how to use his puissance, yet it is closed to all others, even Roger, Linden, Elohim, Demondim, and even Foul himself. Jeremiah is the sole master of his puissance. Much like the Insequent, Jeremiah has a particular attire; his pajamas. Much like the Harrow, his attire includes a trinket with which he is constantly fiddling with; his race car. Much like the Insequent, he has seen much that the rest of the Land is closed to. He has even spoken with Insequent while his physical body was in the real world. All of this has led me an utter and final conclusion:














Jeremiah is an Insequent!

Yes, you heard me right. Jeremiah is an Insequent. He has too much in common with the Insequent and too little in common with everyone else to be anything other than Insequent. He carries a name, which is known to all; but is that his real name? No, I don't think so. We don't know that he is Insequent, bacause, at the moment, he is under the Croyel's influence. But once the Croyel is out of the picture something will happen that will make all of THOOLA cry out in terror like a million voices which are suddenly silenced.... it won't happen until The Last Dark, but it will happen.

Linden will invoke his real name and compel him!

This makes an insane amount of sense....I think...

The similarity between the Insequent and Jerry is more than coincidence. I like the comparison.
Take the idea being batted around here about Foul having to be ultimately contained, put in his place,,and attach it to jerry's " closed" being,,with the talent to build constructs that can Trap beings into "closed" realities..and you can see a possible final ending for Foul. But that portends something else having to be trapped into a closed reality.

The innocence of an autistic, an idiot savant even, has to be dealt with...or does it? In other words...If Linden is able to bring Jerry out of himself..does that not mean Jerry's " Talent" is left behind?..quid pro quo? A paradox here for Linden?...hhhmm...maybe it will be just the opposite....Everything of the Land, its inhabitants, everything,,Except Lord Foul and his Ravers,,gets Trapped into a different,," closed reality" by Jerry...Does that include Linden Avery? I am not so sure.

I still don't think we'll ever see a final victory against Foul. After all, what kind of existence would we have, if there were no opposition to contend with?

Are you saying that sweetbread is insane??
That can't be real!!

But to some Reality is a concept.

Ahh!..I did not say defeated or victorious.. I did say contained,, put in his proper place. Also, opposition does not have to be " Despair, despite.. hate. Opposition can be simply something that is not True to You. Consider the autistic,,. Reality as you and i experience it is like a living moving finger painting to an autistic ( from what I;ve heard and read)..Music seems to help them stay in their known and familiar world, their mind. So, the construct of their familiar , known world..is without despair and hatred. They do things in our reality that are totally wrong,,but i can imagine in their pov..its innocent. They just don't know.

So...i

Spoiler

ts possible that Jerry could take over the Land as TC did..become the arch of Time,,and by that construct ,take the Land to a closed reality , that Lord Foul and crew will never find,,,because they hurried out of there when TC gives it up. Timing could be everything..but this possible end...takes care of alot of ends. Perhaps Linden and TC go along. yea.. that makes sense now.

What kind of existence would we have if there was no Opposition to contend with?...Why the Surreal existence, of course.

nah, lurch... makes too much sense... nothing ever wraps up that perfectly, as we know...

I'm wondering if maybe one of Newton's laws applies here... the whole "for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction" dog and pony show. There's a Law of Death... and a Law of Life... well, was, anyway. There's Earthpower (uber-good), and then there's the Corruption of Earthpower (uber-bad). Could there be an opposite for Jeremiah's power? Even if he is an Insequent, surely similar rules apply. The demondim created the ur-viles and Waynhim, and the Harrow unmakes them. The Law of Time was created to bind the Land, and the Mahdoubt can bend it to travel freely. Is it merely chance coincidence, or are there really counterparts for every power?

(and I'd like to think Jeremiah's Insequent name would be something totally inappropriate for the Land, such as Melvin, or Charlie )
