Thoughts On G21? (Content And Story)

I'm not sure about his actual end goal, but he was using the Millitian to summon the full power of the alternate god to merge its power with Erinn under his control. Originally you need to fully sacrifice a person in order to do this (not just anyone, but someone extremely powerful). The Millitian offers Talvish with a way of summoning the god without actually killing anyone since the Millitian cannot be killed.
Also my personal interpretation is that Talvish was going to use the merged power of the out world and Erinn to ensure that every person gets equal suffering and happiness because he thinks that's in everyone's best interests and that it's Aton's will. At this point yeah, he's crazy and delusional, but hey, as I stated before, he's been alive for a long time now, his mental health probably isn't in the best of places.
Edit: Also as a side note, the Knights have doubts about Talvish's belief but he argues back that because he retains his powers, it means Aton will it so. The Knights are conditioned to accept Aton's will over their own beliefs so they reluctantly accept his reasoning, warped as it is. However, Altam, Merlin, and the Millitian reject that reasoning. It's flawed, and you can actually project your own reasoning to why its flawed and why you reject it. So this is a good point in that you disagree with Talvish's reasoning because you can now project that onto your character and that is the reason that you fight back against him. In a way, it's not just the Millitian's ideology, but also the player's ideology against Talvish's.
I see. That makes sense. I am not sure if Talvish has actually met Atom Cimeni, but more troubling is the presence of the being the prophets worshipped as Ladeca. I must have snoozed when Cichol was handing out buttkickings, but isn't that a loose end?
It feels as if Brilluen, Pennar, Marcan, and such were decoy antagonists, and not very thrilling set of ones anyway. No doubt they stood in the way of Talvish's goals as well, but I long forgotten what their actual motivations were.
Talvish ended up being more interesting and pitiable by a large degree, and his story with Merlin was adorable.
To answer your question, yes, Talvish has actually met Aton. As the Elder he received his divine light directly from Aton himself and was charged with the protection of Erinn directly from the top god. It seems like the divine light is actually passed down from the first group of the Knights and the Elder(Talvish) is stated to have the strongest divine light because he received it directly. I think this means that the introduction of the Out worldly gods wasn't something that happened naturally or that it was caused by the Prophets, but it was Talvish who did it in order to gain enough power to alter the world.
He was trying to get those other gods to battle Erinn's gods, and Ruairi sacrificed himself to complete Tarlach's ritual, right?
And that's why Merlin made a reference to a secret group that protects Erinn at the end of it?
I'd still like to know who these otherworldly deities are, but I think we've got at least one theory on HOW they came here.
It'll be nice to see if they make a reference to all this in Apocalypse this week.
I think the hole just made things worst. All things considered I think there have been breaches before but nothing this big. We've seen from Pihne's backstory that Unholy light is already in the world and corrupting people. I think things are going to stablize for a while because Talvish is going to use his new powers to slow down incoming invasions for a bit. Just in time for a certain Fomor King to revive and give us a sound beating.
