Does the link Betty Crocker left go to anything? I'm afraid to look.

[Bard The 5th LW]

It leads here, no joke.

[Locke cole]

Ahaha holy crap. It does go somewhere.

Specifically to a Youtube video of the ICP song "Miracles". Same as Dave linked to "before".

So, Betty Crocker gave Dave a link to that song. Something is up.

Betty Crocker is the Fefcestor. There can be no other explanation.

Unrelated, but food-for-thought: Betty Crocker is the Batterwitch, Feferi is the Witch of Life. Hussie doesn't do a lot of coincidences, but when he does they tend to be made meaningful after the fact.

[Bard The 5th LW]

Mindfang also used the term 'Witch' a lot when describing Fef's ancestor.

So do we have a timeframe regarding troll longevity versus how far into the past the ancestors were sent? Because I'm beginning to suspect that Feferi's ancestor and the last Troll Empress are one and the same.

That said, the "Betty Crocker" that sent that link to Dave read much more like Doc Scratch than anyone. Especially with the white text on a green background.

We don't know how far back the ancestors were sent, but I'm guessing that, premature death aside, they're decently long-lived from this page. Mindfang treats the future hatching of The Summoner, and his subsequent growth, maturity, and rebellion, as though the many sweeps involved weren't that big a deal to her livelihood.

If nothing else I wouldn't be surprised if higher blood also came with increased longevity.

[Arcanum]

I believe from that same page/sequence of pages that we're given the impression that High Bloods live for much longer than Low Bloods. I'm too lazy to re-read through them to be sure though, but I swear I got that impression from something Mindfang wrote. Anyway if that's the case then it wouldn't surprise me if Fefcestor was/is the past/present Troll Empress.

That is, until it chooses another little witch to serve.

Welp.

I claim victory in spite of my obvious blindness.
