Change, if Padomay doesn't exist, clearly still happens from the Truth in Sequence's perspective, its source is just different, Lorkhan rather than Padomay. And the term "Padomaic" can still apply, if it has a definition. It's just that that definition may bear no relation to any reality beyond the word itself. I'm already arguing that it doesn't have much to do with Padomay; if there is no Padomay, it just makes the same argument more forcefully.

And what would this make Anu, if he had no other? Scourgicus wrote a magnificent piece about this a while back... Basically, it argues that Anu killed Nir, and Padomay only ever existed as Anu's externalised guilt. If Padomay didn't kill Nir, then Anu did. It's the only possibility.
