⚠️ Threads of Power minor SPOILERS⚠️
Love the idea of the Setting Sun as Kell and Lila's fixed point but also safe space to themselves but also, a place that feels like home. That's the place where their story began in adsom. It's also where their personal stories also converged, interlaced, mingled.
In adsom, Lila is a thief and she is wanted in Grey London because of her petty thefts. In Red London, Kell is also a thief of artifacts from other worlds and at some point, he's also wanted because he disappeared for too long. In Grey London, Lila stays at the Stones' Throw which is her hiding/safe space, while Kell keeps his stolen objects at the Setting Sun and to him, his room is also a place where he can find respite.
These two places (along with the Scorched Bone in White London) are in the exact same place despite being a world apart. Kell calls them the "fixed points" and it's amusing how, when he and Lila come back to Red London for their task in top, they stay in a room together exactly there instead of say, the ship or the palace. The place has a new meaning after seven years: it is a reminder of their past (as individuals and as a couple), and their future

"In Jamil's dream, Kalim won't exist. "In Jamil's dream, HE'LL be housewarden and Kalim will be his servant." Actually I think he's too codependent for all that, maybe he just wants a break and a fruity drink and then he'll be right back on his grind. That's my theory, anyway.
