What’s Your Take On The “Divergence” Alerts?


We’ll obviously understand their significance at some point, but do you have enough intel to know right now? I sure as fuck do not. They so far concern geography in places other than where the narrative occurs. Do they herald the appearance of Tris from the YA book series?

Hah, wouldn't THAT be a twist

The divergences occur wherever Dolores shows up and messes with things. Rehoboam notes it as a divergence because her behavior is inconsistent with Rehoboam's own predictions/plan for humanity.

Because she's not human, she's beyond Rehoboam's ability to predict or control

My take on it anyways

I think that’s very plausible. Thank you. Presumably it’s also showing the ripple effect of Dolores’s choices, creating divergences/anomalies on parts of the world remote from her location. She may realize this. That may explain what she meant when she said, “They made this world SO easy to take down.”
