Are we told how exactly Crayak became a being able to manipulate time and space like the Ellimist?
-
if you read the ellimist chronicles it tells all about it
SPOILERS
Ellimist and crayak are both powerful beings with numerous powerful abilities, they go through a game of affecting the lives of other species. Then Ellimist is sucked through a black hole and becomes all powerful and then he stops crayak, who then figures it out and goes through the same black hole and receives the same power
-
Yeah, you should definatly read The Ellimist Chronicles. Ha now I wanna re read The Ellimist Chronicles..
-
we should all re read the ellimist chronicles haha good book
-
It was boring the first time, though. I re-read about a month ago. I don't remember crayak going through the same black hole...maybe I should re-read it again...
-
maybe i should go to the same black hole as well....
-
It doesn't say that Crayak went through the same black hole. Actually, what happened with the Ellimist is that he was simultaneously in a black hole, in regular space, and in zero-space, since he had so many "parts".
All it says about Crayak is that he found out how to follow him. It doesn't say how.
-
ya, it is never said how exactly the crayak came into being. it woulda been cool if it had.
-
Yeah but only the parts that went into the hole "survived"
Crayak then had a jolly time picking off the rest
-
But by the time Crayak picked off the rest, the Ellimist had alread "ascended", or whatever. He was beyond his body, so the damage done to his body did nothing.
-
Yeah but I mean is that really what caused his advancement, being broken up; I don't think Crayak just ran into a particular black hole to "ascend", but I also don't think he would separate his body in that manner and hope it would work
-
yes, because the only other alternative for the Ellimist is death.
-
um... he's saying crayak wouldn't separate his body in that matter and hope it would work.
-
Oh, I must have read it wrong.... :P I thought, (or maybe it was a voice in my head) that the Ellimist separated himself from his body through the hole to be part of space-time itself.... ermm... maybe i'm losing it again... sorry... :-\
-
im pretty sure that what happended to the ellimist was a mistake and crayak recreated it to be as powerful as him.
-
Yeah, Crayak found a way to where the Ellimist had gone.
-
well crayak saw ellimist go through the black hole and just figured he was dead then when he was stopped from destroying earth he figured out the black hole had made ellimist all powerful so he went back, i dont know if they specifically say he went through the hole too but it was made pretty clear imo
-
It's very vague and just says that 'he found a way'
-
Just read the book, everybody. It's a great read and really different from the rest of Animorphs.
-
I do wish the idea of Crayak had been explored more thoroughly. He's an interesting character and I'd like to know more about him. Although I suppose that would take away from his seeming evilness.
-
Just depends on how good the author of the story is ;).
-
If the Elimist received his new "powers" first, then why wouldn't he just destroy Crayak before he also received those powers?
-
For starters, that wouldn't be in character for the Ellimist (which is why it's a good thing he got the powers before Crayak).
I dunno. I always kind of pictured the Ellimist still learning how to see the universe from that crazy extradimensional realm and all of a sudden, Crayak's there too and three millennia have passed or whatever. Sort of like when you close your eyes to get five more minutes of sleep and wake up four hours later.
