So, I'm currently in me relistening era and I think, I've discovered a little fun detail and would like to know your thoughts.

This text contains Spoiler for Season one (specifically episode 4 and episode 35)

>!In episode four (Page Turner), Dominic Swain obtains a copy of "Ex Altiora". It makes him smell ozone and he visits Mary Keay and she shows him her copy of "Ex Altiora". Mary shows him the funny magic things these books can do, when put into dark shadows for a few seconds. From her book, bones fall out. Small animal bones that are slightly bent into shapes that shouldn't be possible. !<

>!Dominic's book doesn't shed bones but reveals Lichtenberg figures in the woodcuts.!<

>!Little jump to episode 35 (Old Passages): A group of renovators discoveres a blocked of passage because Gerard Keay swings a hammer at the wall. They decide to explore the tunnel behind, reach a crossway and Gerard suddenly takes off into one of the tunnels. Two of the crew chase after him. Gerard comes running back, bumping hard into the statement giver (Harold Silva) who hears something clatter to the floor. He picks it up and discovers that it is a small bone. He suggests, "From a bird, I think, or maybe a rat". When he makes his way to his coworker, he discovers more of the bones. !<

>!My theory is, that this is when Gerard steals(?) the copy of "Ex Altiora" that later Mary Keay shows to Dominic and I think, that is a great little continuity detail. !<

>!My friend who I discussed that with found himself a little confused, because he thought every lightner was unique and something with bones made him think of "The Bone Turners Tale" first. But he also finds my argument compelling.!<

What do you think?

I apologize for all spelling mistakes as well as any missing or added commas. English is not my first languge and I have been fighting especially the commas since middle school.
