![]() ![]() The only thing we see him distressed over is the impending death of the Earth. WE NEVER SEE HIM DISTRESSED OVER A PERSON. The first few John Gaius chapters in NtN, John keeps saying "I was trying to save you, bring you back," when addressing Harrow/Alecto. He realizes, "it was you, you were everywhere." If Alecto is a person, how could she, or her soul, have been everywhere? Now, if she were the very planet under John's feet. When John tries to identify the soul, he claims that he couldn't find it, because something was interfering. ![]() ![]() That's where the RBs come from, after all. John says as much when he confesses to killing them in both HtN and NtN. She is referred to as a "rock made flesh" and, when she kisses Harrow, says "is that not how meat touches meat?" Point for "soul of inanimate thing." ![]() When the girl in the locked Tomb awakes, she speaks as though she were not human. (Others have speculated that there's a wire crossed somewhere, as Alecto appears to have been in Harrow's body the whole book.) It seems reasonable to infer that when John addresses Harrow, he's really addressing Alecto. John Gaius, in the cyphered interludes, keeps talking to "Harrow" as though she is his cavalier. Short and sweet: is Alecto the soul of the planet Earth? ![]()
