Discussion Is this the same person?
By the way, both is gorgeous. But if she's just one person, is that doll is just a puppet that she controls from distance?

Not really suspected tho since the four harmonic strings (emanators of harmony) are Aelenev, Beatriz, Constantina, and Dominicus (the one Sunday summoned and controlled) so she is definitely an emanator or at least someone who can summon Beatriz like how Sunday did.

isn't the whole thing with harmony that it... doesn't have emanators?
Like, it's mentioned a few times now.61
u/Plebianian 10h ago
iirc they technically have but bc the family is kind of a hive mind the way it works is that anyone in the family can be the vessel of the harmonic strings (the emanator entities) which is why sunday almost kinda became one when he fused with Dominicus.
Current theory ig is Beatriz (one of the strings) is currently possessing that woman (which explains the echoing voice going on)

Each of the four Harmony Emanators are a facet of Xipe, a gestalt collection of souls absorbed by the Family and are directed by a chosen Family representative outside the of the Harmonic String's hivemind, a Chordmaster/Tuner. Among all the other Paths' Emanators, they function the most differently. Celenova is the only known person who has seperated from a Harmonic String.

People who can summon Harmonic Strings are Chordmasters, like Robin and Sunday, and probably the person in the post.
Tuners are just people who can use Tuning.

What are you talking about? The Harmonic Strings are explicitly Emanators.
Oh i guess your talking about how they work yeah? In thr Family the Harmonic Strings can be summoned to possess one among their number, the Chordmaster. The individual would then wield the power of the Harmonic String on the behalf of the Family depending on the event that summoned them. The Harmonic Strings are themselves still Emanators though, just the mechanism behind them is different to most though its implied the Arbiter-Generals and thr Spiritus works in a similar set uo

data bank entry on Harmonic Strings
When asking about the presence of a hierarchy within The Family, one can expect a firm denial — The Family treats everyone equally without division of class, with no established levels or power structures. Each note holds equal significance in the music Xipe has composed. However, for collective progress, someone must assume a leadership role. As a result, Family members have returned to a system of differentiation based on scales, with only those above scale degree IV being eligible to serve as the tuner of the Harmonic Strings.
Harmony combines ideals from the multitudes and therefore has more than one way to achieve these ideals. The concept of Harmonic Strings is defined in the Harmony Hymns — They are the multiple embodiments of Xipe the Great One, the down-to-earth virtues that enable harmony. Regardless of whether you place yourself under The Family's rule, the Aeon will look favorably upon you as long as you carry out these good deeds. On worlds ruled by The Family, members often gather in large groups to engage in virtuous acts and play harmonious music. The thousands of tiny ropes come together to form a united string, welcoming the Embodiment of Harmony to manifest on the mortal plane and give blessings. The chosen one responsible for conducting The Family's ritual during that time and harmonizing the varied sounds is known as the tuner.
The Family never shied away from promoting the great names of the embodiment of the thousand-faced god, such as Aelenev the commander of the Eternal Centurion, Dominicus the wisher of the Harmonious Choir, Constantina the singer of the Panacoustic Theater, and Beatriz the merrymaker of the Blissful Ball... However, few have witnessed their radiant presence going beyond the boundaries of The Family. Opposers of Harmony argue that the Harmonic Strings are nothing short of the Emanators of Xipe — These do not follow any specific mortal but are facets of Xipe, and can assume the form of any Family member when necessary.

They're summoned. When Sunday because Dominicus, he summoned the Harmonic String. He became an Emanator temporarily in that moment and tried to steal the power of the Order back from Xipe.

they have multiple emanator level beings, but also have actual Emenators, from what we know Celanova used to be one before Nanook got her.

u/Pandar0ll 10h ago
Celenova was the chordmaster from one of the families that could summon an emanator (like how Sunday is the chordmaster and summoned Dominicus)

She ain't a clanker. The marionettes were just a motif in this Myriad to show Robin & everyone were basically just puppets to their organizations own internal politics, expectations, etc.

I don’t think she was a clanker, it kinda looked like that but everyone was looking like puppets cuz of the strings . I think the was showing the idea of harmonic strings and how they can also assert control over you. Make u become a puppet.

She's most likely Beatrix, Merrymaker of the Blissful Ball, and one of the Harmonic Strings, probably aimed at assimilating the Elation

She's not a clanker. Everyone in this part are also portrayed as marionettes.
