  1. Just rewatched Infinity Pool and noticed that after his second reincarnation, when James is shot and taken in by a Li Tolqan family, the 13 year old culturally charged with preserving his family's honor by killing his father's murder, James, spies on and smiles at him. I suspect the Li Tolqan faith is very different from Christianity and forgiveness-based religions; that they put a great deal of emphasis on revenge and the satiation of their vindictiveness. When that boy observed the double of his father's killer, his faith was rewarded as was his delight that said outsider, as promised by here-unseen religious functionaries, was now trapped in an unending cycle of deprivation, depravity, and despair as his soul was torn and degraded with every successive incarnation. "Holy shit! It's worked! The gods have favored me and this bastard is getting what he deserves." That's basically what his face conveyed. I cannot even begin to imagine the dark hatred that it must take to wish that upon another human being but, it's present in Li Tolqans and quite possibly a source of sustenance to one or more of their deities. Hell, maybe they worship Nyarlathotep or some Lovecraftian fiend from beyond space and time whose reverence among other tribes survives in the umbral and accursed corners of earth and was once more widespread before more civilized peoples with more compassionate gods extinguished them like the cankerous-hearted cultists they are. Little wonder we see but a fraction of their culture; the world would be forced to shun and perhaps even dismember their society were such a eldritch revelation to come to light...their Christian and Muslim neighbors in the Mediterranean would certainly not tolerate the existence of such pagan traditions.
