And of thieves also, sure, but as I said Cari is following the mythology loosely, so Chop Chop could be some sort of undefined god.If we're talking Greek Myths, Chop Chop is more akin to Hermes than Aephestus. I mean, God of Merchants, able to travel anywhere, is a known deceiver and is seen as the Loki equivalent in Greek Mythology, has a presence in The Odyssey like Orion and Penny and Caly, and has a Goat for a symbol (which I've read on Discord was the supposed canon choice for Maurice)...
Despite this, I still stand by my earlier crackpot theory that he's a deceased failed merchant from the golden age of the Silk Road who's trying to achieve in Eternum what he couldn't when he was still alive.
Remain the fact that it was Aephestus to help Orion in his story not Hermes, and it's undeniable at this point that Chop Chop appears not only to sell Orion merchandise, at least concede me this.
But I wasn't trying to oppose what you said, more throwing other ideas onto the wall to see what stick.
I didn't read this theory you proposed so sorry, though I found it interesting as well.
In all those cases he felt a presence it was different at the park, the threat wasn't Axel, but the ball kicked at high speed that was almost hitting him, it's something that happen almost uncosciuosly and Orion still doesn't control it completely.Yeah, the moment with Axel and Orion’s quick reflex should not be forgotten either...
But there is one thing that is not yet clear, why Orion did not feel threatened at this moment in the ending?
I mean, on a couple of missions he even found threats, and also on the missions of Vampires and werewolves, there, even from afar, Orion sensed danger... although the shot was really unexpected and not in the plans, judging by how the friend of the dude who shot was even surprised, then naturally maybe they didn’t pose a threat, if in reality Orion has such reflexes
And when the accident in the ally happen, Orion is still far from controlling something that he possess.
Reamin to seen if this power he posses is something that he already had or it was imbued in him sometime in the past.
The flashbacks that shows Orion looking at himself whiel bleeding, or the other one when he see the kids in the room in his first nightmare, the hints that he will not remember anything after the "nightmares" shows ( to me at least) that Orion is not a normal human ( if he ever was) and this mean he still need to awaken completely.
