I thought that for a while, but today's last bit reinforces that to me.
Nice idea, but a fragment of whose soul? One of the bloodline of Siphy II? When would that have happened? Unless Gwynn turned out to be descended from *that* Siphy and not the one she body-swapped with. The soul fragment that the bug took from Siphy II. When Farahn imprisoned Sisphy 2, he said 'When I gave her power, I took a piece of her soul', and the bug responded "as did i" https://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?ch ... 2021-06-04I think that the Bug plans to use Gwynn to try to release him again via Ozzid. I bet he thinks if Farahn is destroyed, he will be released from the book, since he was imprisoned in Farahn.

I took it to mean part of Siphy II soul.

I think he put it in Gwynn when he got possession of her , as a backup

Oh, so now we know Ozzid was at the sinkhole at the same time as our merry band, it seems obvious that that's how the "poor Kiki" storyline will be resolved.
Spec: Kiki will allow herself to be possessed. Meaning that the winged figure on the anniversary panel is actually Kiki with wings.

Or maybe she ends up so hungry she eats a leftover of Siphy's paper form (mmm, barbecue) and thus enters the bloodline so Ozzid has to obey her. (I know, that one is a bit of a stretch)

Ha. I'm loving the Kiki spec.
OK, so most of my spec is wrong. And this comic demonstrates that Ozzid is not near because Allie somehow fulfilled her intent to be immortal. But that doesn't stop me from continuing to try...
This comic suggests that Siphaniana II's soul survived her fiery demise in the sinkhole - and that is what awakens Ozzid. Perhaps only the Book burned away, releasing her from Farahn's possession. In that case, Gwynn just gained one hell of an ally. And things are about to get VERY interesting. (I think that last sentence is safe spec - ha, ha).

Just wanted to point out that with the extra content delivered today, it has been established that the book itself as a will of its own to be complete: the death magic will of Quint. Interesting.
But would it mean Chaz actually killed that will, when it stabbed the book?

Ahh, so the magic power is not from Farahn or the Bug but rather the Book itself. So theoretically Gwynn could still access it if Farahn or the Bug were gone.

WOW -- the comic for 3/24/22 seems to show this is exactly what happened! Siphy's final shout of 'Sparrow' and burning up seems to be what woke Ozzid, who popped into his rune-cage just as Gwynn poofed out the Torg Crew. Minus Kiki, for which she should never be forgiven.
