Questions about the fifth walking way - the Enantiomorph
I've always had trouble understanding what exactly the Enantiomorph is. I have a basic understanding of this walking way, but there are still many questions I have
What is a merged dichotomy? What exactly does that mean?
Does it have any connection to the real-life concepts of chirality?
Can the Enantiomorph be invoked, like some sort of ritual, or does it just happen naturally? Would the contenders know they were part of an Enantiomorph?
How does the witness decide who wins? Is it by whim, or is there a deeper, metaphysical process that decides the winner?
What happens if the witness dies before they can declare a victor? Would they be locked in the Enantiomorph forever? Could the role of witness be mantled by a new person if the original observer is out of the picture? (Please say yes)
What prerequisites are there to this walking way?
Was Zurin Arctus actually the victor of his Enantiomorph with Talos? Why is Talos a god if he lost?
Are the roles of Rebel, King, and Observer literal in any way? What's the significance of those roles specifically?
How similar do the Rebel and King have to be? The UESP says "Metaphysically interchangeable", but of all the known Enantiomorphs the rebel and king seem pretty different to me.
What are the inspirations for the Enantiomorph? Is there real philosiphy behind this? Do other things connect to it? What is it's place among the six walking ways?
Can the Enantiomorph alone lead to apotheosis, or does it need to be combined with other walking ways to achieve Apotheosis?
Thank you! I can't wait to hear the answers.
