Who and what was Azimuth?
Azimuth is the name for the angle of the horizon. I don’t know what Abnett & Lanning intended with Imogen and Azimuth, but there were remarks made by both that let me think a little bit about them. Century knew Azimuth’s face from a long forgotten past. She could’ve been from one of the worlds Century led the Scatter to or she could’ve been a Hodomur and therefore creator of Century. If she was Hodomur this could’ve been an indicator that Century didn’t have much time left because she had already waited 100 years for Imogen in this strange dimension. Then there was the strange connection between Azimuth and Imogen. Azimuth waited 100 years for Imogen to arrive at her stronghold and she called her sister, malign witch and great and terrible power. Was Azimuth a surviving Nexus of a world destroyed by the Scatter and devastated by Lore (could even be the Hodomur’s homeworld)? Or were Azimuth and Imogen both daughters of their worlds’ Nexus. Azimuth’s city inherited many different beings.
