The Tease | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_1c571556 | comment |
The Tease: Jenny has become a non-sexual version of this as an adult. She seduces guys hard almost automatically, non-maliciously but thoughtlessly. Jim rightly tells her off about this, as some of them are actually taking her seriously. | |

So Beautiful, It's a Curse: Jenny’s dating life has blossomed into this. She’s very attractive and can have any kind of man she wants, but growing up this way has kept her from really thinking about what she wants ‘’long-term’’, which is starting to bother her now. | |

Funny Foreigner: A lot of Muleki’s antics in the modern day play out like this. He looks behind the TV to see where the little people are coming from, produces nuggets of gold to pay for broken windows, and is totally nonplussed by toilet paper. | |

Xanatos Speed Chess | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_447d9e50 | comment |
Xanatos Speed Chess: What Jim's plan to beat the Hostage Situation amounts to. The very first stage is summarized below: Jim is promised the girls in exchange for the sword and meets the villains ostensibly holding it while they ostensibly have the girls. The villains reveal the girls are decoys; just two random Mexican girls. Jim reveals the package he has is a branch; he doesn’t have the sword. Mehrukenah threatens to execute the girls (who are down in the parking lot) but Jim says they’ll never get the sword then. Mehrukenah threatens to torture him for the sword but Jim bluffs that that won’t work, since the sword is in a moving location. Jim then proposes another arrangement where everyone theoretically gets what they want. | |

Holy Ground | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_47804320 | comment |
Holy Ground: Used (with ambiguous results) by Muleki. Since Brigham Young University has been consecrated by Mormon authority, he declares that the Gadiantons won’t be able to attack there, since it’s the Lord’s ground. This means that Jim can only go from his apartment to school and back, which bothers him to no end. But when he steps off campus for He minutes he’s immediately beset by Gadiantons. he deduces that they’ve likely been waiting for him to slip up, but it’s unclear if it’s religion or fear of crowds that kept them away. | |

The Farmer and the Viper | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_505a1021 | comment |
The Farmer and the Viper: This is the other reason you shouldn’t use the sword. It’s evil; designed and made for evil, and if it helps you accomplish something good, it’s only so it can abandon you later. This holds true for anyone who wields it. | |

Slippery MacGuffin | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_6c2e5e1 | comment |
Slippery MacGuffin: The Silver Sword is made to be this, as it exerts influence on its holders and surroundings. Leaving it alone in a hotel room for an hour almost gets it stolen, and from then on, Jim endeavors to keep it on his person at all times. This becomes especially dangerous halfway through the book, as Jim needs to negotiate a Hostage Situation but knows the sword will be stolen if he leaves it alone. | |

Magic A Is Magic A | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_6c3d1777 | comment |
Magic A Is Magic A: The time travel caves are established as such in this book - moral affiliation doesn't matter; good or bad people can use them. Garth also lays this out in regards to good and bad powers. Good powers come from God and from the power of his priesthood and the Holy Ghost, AKA the powers familiar to any member of the LDS church. Bad powers, no matter how cool they may be, are anything outside of that, since the only other source of power is the devil. This includes sources who claim the source ISN’T the devil, as the devil takes many forms. “A source of power is either God, or it’s [[Deal with the Devil not God.� | |

Orcus on His Throne | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_add14bc2 | comment |
This is a sticky issue with the sword because it tempts whoever holds it. Muleki mentions that he wouldn’t want to have it for more than a few days. Shurr mentions that Gadianton said that once the sword was in his hands it wasn’t to touch anyone else’s. And he was right to insist, as giving it up for even a moment gets him killed. | |

Flat-Earth Atheist | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_cf1b706e | comment |
Flat-Earth Atheist: Jim is very reluctant to accept the sword’s power is real, even though he recently rediscovered time travel was possible. In fairness, this is because he doesn’t believe in avoiding accountability with Gollum Made Me Do It. But on the other hand, his reluctance ends up letting the sword take hold of him because he assumes its effect is psychological. | |

Despair Event Horizon: Congruent with the second Darkest Hour mentioned above.

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_e7b0229a | comment |
Laser-Guided Amnesia: After the events of the first book, Jim and Jenny both lost their memories after they blabbed about them recklessly. A large part of the first act is Jim gradually regaining them over the course of a few days. | |

Big Damn Heroes: Several times. Muleki saves Jim and co. from Mehrukenah early on. In the final act, Antonio and his villagers arrive just in time to save Jim from execution. | |

Evil Old Folks: Mehrukenah has aged into a white-haired, wrinkly old man, but he’s still as strong and malicious as he’s ever been. | |

Inevitable Mutual Betrayal | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_f1a6c4f8 | comment |
Inevitable Mutual Betrayal: At the Hostage Situation, Jim knows Mehrukenah will kill them all if he just hands over the sword, so he arranges a few layers of redundancy to make sure Mehrukenah can't just take it, then manages to get everyone away anyway. | |

MacGuffin Guardian: Jim is designated as this when Muleki is injured, as he can’t protect it in his condition. This is a sticky issue with the sword because it tempts whoever holds it. Muleki mentions that he wouldn’t want to have it for more than a few days. Shurr mentions that Gadianton said that once the sword was in his hands it wasn’t to touch anyone else’s. And he was right to insist, as giving it up for even a moment gets him killed. | |

Darkest Hour | |
| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_f91d1d4f | comment |
Darkest Hour: About two thirds through the story, Garth and the girls are kidnapped, with a note saying that they’ve killed one already and will give the two back for the sword, nearly driving Jim to despair. Then, in the last stages of the climax, Jim thinks for a moment that the local power station he sees has been built OVER Ether’s Coffer, destroying it. | |

| Gadiantons and the Silver Sword / int_fb56b948 | comment |
My Sister Is Off-Limits: Defied. Garth reveals that he’s always had some feelings for Jenny, and Jim expresses happiness and wishes him luck. Since he knows she’s a hard one to pin down, he even gives Garth some advice! | |

The Corrupter: How the Silver Sword works. Keep it close to you, and it’ll gradually turn you into whatever makes you most loathsome or miserable. | |
