Everything but the Material Plane itself is safe when the gods blow the world. Thor explicitly orders Durkon and Minrah not to explain the whole "constant world destruction" thing to any outsiders, because the gods erase outsider memories whenever they make new worlds.

I wonder if Hel is Loki's daughter in this mythology.


I wonder if you could survive if you shifted out to the Far Realm...

Oh my fuck, is that what the Far Realm outsiders are?
*googles it (which is totally not the same as trying to enter it)*

Sounds like the realm of Lovecrafts Elder Gods dialed to 11. Though theres no indication that such a realm does exist in OOTS and its basically described as another universe onto itself and could clash with OOTSs storyline.

...What if what's in the Snarl is the real world, and the OOTS-verse is it's Far Realm? The universe outside the universe?

Yes. Pretty sure that's been said explicitly multiple times.

That doesn't explain why an evil tentacle came out of the Snarl and killed people if OOTS-verse is the far realm.

Word of Rich is that the real world will never appear in the comic in any form.

Not the real world as in our irl world, the "real world" as in the prime material plane, the "real world" for the characters

Rules lawyering, right? Also, lol on the ex-exarch realizing he can just move.

One can only hope that they have plan C, whiiiicchhhh, just might be C as in Clan. I've seen predictions on the GITP forum that it'd be a chance for Clan Thundershield to assert itself, thus making a tie and deadlocking it. Hopefully Durkons mom knows some things about council procedure.

I'm going to guess that if that does happen it's after the roof collapses. The reference to Durkon's father is presumably to do with him being a sapper. And that he died collapsing a cave.

Yeah, I'm reading that people are saying that they predict a roof collapse, possibly via returning hammer.

Well, the hammer went up, so unless the Material Plane has gained the Objective Gravity trait, that hammer's gotta come down.

True, but it's trajectory looks like it would miss the roof entirely when it comes down, that is, if it didn't have the ability to return to the owners hand.

The dwarves really could have framed it as sacrificing their race for the others.  And not go to Hel.

Perhaps the Dwarves on that council who made the decision; the rest of Dwarf kind? Not so much.

Although, if they put it to a vote among the entire Dwarven population, then maybe.
