Seven Prophesied Heads of Severance

Some members of the Great Houses believed that the War in Heaven would end after a certain seven severed heads, the Seven Prophesied Heads of Severance, spoke. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) In a deleted scene of Mujun: The Ghost Kingdom, Baron Amatsumara said, "When the Seventh Head speaks, the War will end, and the true War will begin." (PROSE: Head of State)
The first message to Great Houses from the enemy was conveyed through the severed head of the Presidency. (PROSE: The Book of the War) It was from this incident that much of the belief in the Seven Heads of Severance originated. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) As an example of patterns manifesting throughout the Spiral Politic, the Shift said that if someone were to prophesy that seven decapitated heads would talk, not only would it come true in the future, but Hassan-i Sabbah would also perform a trick to make it seem like a decapitated head was speaking in the 12th century. (PROSE: Head of State)
Jendrickenses thought that the severed head of Robert Scarratt may have been one of the Seven Heads. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage)
