Skolas's brother, The house of Kings Kell. (Theory)(MUST READ)

[b]Theory Time [/b] my theory that Skolas has a brother who is the Kell of the Kings. Now i strongly believe that Skolas is based on a Norse character called Skoll. Skoll is a wolf (coincidence) and Skoll has a brother called Hati. Skoll (pronounced roughly “SKOHL”; Old Norse Sköll, “One Who Mocks”)(funny how Skolas mocks you throughout the whole campaine)and Hati (pronounced “HAHT-ee”; Old Norse Hati, “One Who Hates) are two wolves who are only mentioned in passing references that have to do with their pursuing Sol and Mani, the sun and moon, through the sky in hopes of devouring them. At Ragnarok, the downfall of the cosmos, they catch their prey as the sky and earth darken and collapse. It’s not entirely clear which one of them pursues the sun and which pursues the moon. The medieval Icelandic historian Snorri Sturluson, whose works are typically taken at face value in low-quality introductory books on Norse mythology, claims that Skoll chases the sun and Hati the moon.[1] However, Snorri’s source in this passage, the Eddic poem Grímnismál, says the following in the relevant stanza: Skoll is the name of the wolf Who follows the shining priest Into the desolate forest, And the other is Hati, Hróðvitnir’s son, Who chases the bright bride of the sky.[2] The noun used for Skoll’s prey, goði (“priest”), is masculine, and the noun used for Hati’s prey, brúðr(“bride”) is feminine. Since Mani (the moon) is male, and Sol (the sun) is female, the wording of this stanza strongly suggests that Skoll hunts the moon and Hati the sun. Now from that we can draw the comparison. Skolas was only willing to negotiate with the kings and not ruthlessly take they’re house by force. we can see thwi because he sends an am,bassideor to the kings house and they send thri own, unlike what hes done to all the other houses.why? because why would he do that when his brother is the Kell. they are both Kells witha god complex. and Skolas is clearly Skoll, the one who chased the moon and Hati chased the sun (A.K.A The Traveler) One other thing that leads me to believe that the sun is the traveler is that many believe the Traveler to be Alpha lupi. and alpha lupi is always mentioned as female. this ties to the poem about the sun being considered female. also many of the grimoire cards give hints to it as some are titled “dreams of Alpha Lupi” this hints that Alpha lupi is asleep, as is the traveler. the similarities are uncanny. now if Hati chased the sun, that makes sense as the House of Kings is the house which has the most interests in the Traveler. that is because the Kings Kell wants the traveler for himself, He chases it. and Skolas chases the moon,or as the poem says “the Shining Priest” now sun and moon are opposites, night and day, light and darkness. if The Sun represents the traveler which is the light, then the moon represents the darkness. Skolas chased the darkness. the purest form of the darkness, the Travelers Mirror. or… it could mean another thing, if we take “shining priest” into the consideration, skolas also chased the Vex tech. he went in the Vault of glass. could the Shining priest” be Atheon? Edit: okay so after research i cannot find this card. for everyone asking. until futher notice, pay no attention to the top half of the theary. although my current writing below the grimoire card is still very factual.

  • Regardless of the familial ties I'd love to know more about the house of kings. I feel like they've been watching us from a vantage point the whole game. Just waiting for the right moment to pull their trigger.
