From Saga, there are other worlds indeed

It just made me think of the cover of The Waste Lands

Not Dean Norris, but Stephen Graham. All y'all had valid opinions about Cort, but he has it. Fists and brains down.

I still vividly remember reading book 7 in high school and Eddies death. I had to put the book down for two days before I had the courage to pick it up again. Eddie’s death hit so hard because for the first time, the Ka-Tet felt mortal. Until Eddie’s death, My naive high school self thought the Ka-tet would make it together to the tower.

But then I hit Jake and Oy. I actually sobbed at OY’s death.

Eddies death broke the KA-Tet. Jake’s death broke its heart and OY’s was the death of its soul.

Realizing Roland’s obsession over the Ka-tet causes his penance of living the journey countless times. It’s such a bittersweet but fantastic ending. I think it’s one of King’s best conclusions.

or should I say: let's go, then...

I just finished my first journey to the dark tower and have found myself relating everything around me to the dark tower, Ka, and the Ka-Tet. And naturally, I heard “Behind Blue Eyes” by The Who while at dinner. I listened closely to the lyrics and couldn’t help but feel as if it were written about Roland Deschain.

“No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
And no one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated to telling only lies”

The parallels of that song and Roland don’t stop there. I feel that the whole song embodies him.

Are there any other songs that you’ve felt the winds of Ka from?

Okay so I’m at this part where Blaine gives the answer to the riddle “There is a thing that nothing is, and yet it has a name. It's sometimes tall and sometimes short, joins our talks, joins our sport, and plays at every game."

and I was so happy I guessed the answer 🥹 that is all I wanted to say sorry guys 🥹 🎀
