Well, as someone pointed out, we heard that there was a scream from the earth that happened during the Ancients' final days, but we never really experience that in ours'. I recall one mention of there being a sound of some kind before the sky turned red over Thavnair, but that's all and its secondhand. Anima's tempering yell is the only scream-related thing I really remember happening in this storyline. So maybe there is something else that was agitated by Meteion's dynamis assault that everyone overlooked during the first apocalypse, but we'll have to deal with at some point.

Or maybe the scream is just the sound we hear in the echo vision of the moon turning red as we stare at it from our rooms and that was just all we're getting. If you're wearing headphones, that sound can RIP your eardrums if you aren't careful.


Oh, and i thought of another question:

- What was Fandaniel reminded of when he examined the warding scale our girl Nidhana had in Tower of Zot? He said it was "almost identical to" something, but never really expressed his thoughts beyond that that I saw.

I am thinking he *maybe* meant the radios in Garlemald? But that would imply he knew the radios helped shield people from tempering. And did nothing about it. But why would he know that, much less allow it. I mean, I've been assuming that the radios shielding people was a happy accident and nothing more, but if Fandaniel knew enough about them to know how they worked and see similarities with the scales... I don't know what I'm thinking about this, its just weird.

Assuming I'm even right and he meant the radios. Could there have been something else in Hermes'/Amon's experience that he's referring to?
