the more i think about it, the more i realize that it’s completely understandable why Jonel in particular tapped into the idea of forest gods on Nowhere. obviously, that’s a role they set for him, but it had to be based on something. but there’s talking bones, ghosts, the Word on the Wind, the Magifolk, the rumor of a dragon underneath the islands... no fucking wonder they set that role up. i’m sure the White Ship people had never seen even a fraction of anything like what Nowhere had to offer. it must have left quite the impression upon them.
