For the book see Lord Sunday Book. He is afflicted with pride. He was the overall ruler of the House after The Architect disappeared. However, he left most of his work to Superior Saturdayhaving no interest in the House and performing his job until it was necessary when Saturday attacked the Incomparable Garden. This was a disguise to fool Arthur. Later on he reveals his true form as a Superior Denizen. He is over 10 feet tall, with dark, intense eyes. Sunday wears a chain around his neck with a small golden key looped upon it. This is later revealed to be the Seventh Key. Sunday has never been seen wearing wings, as he rides a Dragonfly to move around the Incomparable Gardens. Book 7) Sunday's Key is quite literally a small, golden key which he wears around his neck. Despite its Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom, it is the most powerful Key in the House, managing to overpower the combined power of the Fifth and Sixth Keys. Lord Sunday is the eldest son of the Architect and was given the best domain when she left. He rules over the Incomparable Book 7), the highest area of the House and the source of Superior Saturday's envy. Lord Sunday tends to the Gardens constantly, which he rarely leaves since the Architect left. Lord Sunday takes things that he likes or enjoys into the Gardens as 'Exhibits', his favourite of which are in the Elysium. It was revealed in Lord Sunday that the Incomparable Gardens, not part of the House itself, was Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom epicentre of the universe. Lord Sunday is one of the most superior Denizens if not the most superior. This and getting the highest area in the house has caused him to become afflicted with pride. After losing his Key he completely surrendered and suggested that Arthur kill them Book 7). The Piper commented that "he was always to proud to fight to the end. This is shown when he signs all his letters witha single S and comments that even if Arthur interfers, "it will make very little difference in the end. However this was only when he was in possession of his Key. Lord Sunday is an extremely powerful Denzien. He is the eldest son of the Architect and Old One, and was given the seventh key, along with domain of the Incompable Gardens. With the seventh Key Sunday is considered to be a powerful foe. He could easily silence Arthur and call down lightning that destroyed several of the Mariner's sailors. Along with his unique size, Lord Sunday is shown to be quite strong. He could easily jump down fifty feet and is strong enough to imprison Part Seven of the Will in a cage of death, that Book 7) only be opened by his Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom and the Mariner at the cost of his life and presumably the Book 7). The Denizens are Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom skinned. It is unknown who the new Dawn, Noon and Dusk will be, or if they will be the same. Lord Sunday was killed by Nothing when Dame Primus connected with the Old One who had been freed from his clock-prison. It is unknown if he would be revived by the New Architect, however since Suzy wanted to be Lady Sunday this is unlikely. Sign In Don't have an account? Start a Wiki. Contents [ show ]. Categories :. Lord Sunday (Keys to the Kingdom #7) (The Keys to the Kingdom #7) | The air rushed past him, stinging his eyes and ripping at his hair and clothes. He knew it was an illusion, but it felt like the wind was holding him up, rather than rushing past. In his left hand he held the small mirror Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom was the Fifth Key, and in his right he clutched the quill pen that was the Sixth Key, which he had wrested from Saturday and taken with him over the edge. Because of this, Arthur felt powerful, Book 7) and not at all afraid. He looked down at the tower below him and laughed — a deep, sarcastic laugh that was not at all like his normal laughter. He was about to laugh again when Part Six of the Will, in its raven form, caught up with him, its claws latching on to his hair and digging into his scalp. Instantly, Arthur lost his sense of euphoric invincibility and came back to his senses. He properly took in the speed of his descent for the first time and saw that he was going to hit the tower very, very soon. He was going to miss the actual peak, he saw, and crash into the main part, some fifteen levels below. His mind halted in panic and all he could do was stare at the tower, tears streaming from his eyes because the wind was rushing by so fast. He found himself flapping his arms as if somehow that might help, and he was screaming, and then—. He crashed into a flying Internal Auditor, who screamed as well. He tried to transfer the Sixth Key so as to hold both Keys in his left hand, but in that vital moment the Denizen kicked free and dived away, his wings folded back. Arthur fell again, but the collision had checked his speed. He had a few seconds to take action and his brain finally got back to work on problem- solving, instead of gloating over the Sixth Key or cowering in fear. He knew there was no way to avoid colliding with the tower — unless he never actually arrived there…. A hundred feet from impact, Arthur somersaulted into a swan dive. Stretching his arms out below his body, he drew several steps in the air with the Sixth Key. The pen left glowing trails of light, which instantly Book 7) on the appearance of solid white marble steps. Arthur hit hard, immediately tucking himself into a ball to roll down the Improbable Stair. As he bounced and tumbled over each step, he knew he had to get his speed under control. Even when he stuck out his leg, he only tumbled sideways — and kept falling. Climbing up the Improbable Stair was bad enough, with the chance of coming out on some random Landing anywhere in time or space. Falling down it — completely out of control — was even worse. It Book 7) possible to end up somewhere you particularly do not wish to be, the Old One had said. Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom was more like falling down a slide than a staircase, much more so than could be normal or natural. Arthur grimaced as his funny bones were repeatedly jarred. Before his transformation from a mortal boy into a Denizen or whatever he had become, he would have been screaming with pain, and Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom arms would have broken like sticks. But the Keys, and his use of them, had changed his bones, skin and blood beyond anything a doctor would recognise as human. Arthur was afraid there were other changes too, changes inside him that removed him even further from humanity, things that went beyond his new size, strength and durability. But this was a distant, nagging fear that was currently overwhelmed by his current panic. Book 7) rolled on to his back, gasping as the front edge of each step smacked him in the backbone. He put the Sixth Key in his Book 7), so he would have a hand free. Then he raised the mirror of the Fifth Key, held it in front of his face and tried to focus on it as he continued his juddering descent. This was Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom hard to do. Which meant he also had to stop thinking about Doorstop Hill or any parts of the House that he knew had already been consumed by Nothing. So much of it was gone already, as the Void spread Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom the House, destroying everything in its path. Arthur yelled to himself. Think of somewhere safe. Somewhere easy. Instead he rolled over again and grabbed at the next step with his free hand, his fingernails raking across the marble, down one…two…three steps. Arthur sighed and dropped the Sixth Key from his mouth to his bloodied hand. He slowly stood and set his foot on the next step. It was time to start climbing back up, while thinking hard about where to come out. He was just about to start doing this when the Stair disappeared in a flash of bright white light. He fell forward into a hole full of evil-smelling mud. The Stair, as it always tried to do, had thrown him out on to some random Landing, which could be Book 7) in the Secondary Realms, and could also be at any time in the past. Arthur almost went face-first into the mud, but Book 7) recovered his balance in just enough time to stagger forward and crash Lord Sunday (the Keys to the Kingdom a sandbagged earth wall instead. He bounced off that, went back into the hole and windmilled his arms desperately for a second, before ending up planted backside-first in about a foot of yellow, stinking mud.

  • Garth Nix LORD SUNDAY
    GARTH NIX was born on a Saturday in Melbourne, Australia, and got married on a Saturday, to his publisher wife, Anna. So Saturday is a good day. Garth used to write every Sunday afternoon because he had a number of day jobs over the years that nearly always started on a Monday , usually far too early. These jobs have included being a bookseller, an editor, a PR consultant and a literary agent. Tuesday has always been a lucky day for Garth, when he receives good news, like the telegram (a long time ago, in the days of telegrams) that told him he had sold his first short story, or when he heard his novel Abhorsen had hit The New York Times bestseller list. Wednesday can be a letdown after Tuesday, but it was important when Garth served as a part-time soldier in the Australian Army Reserve, because that was a training night. Thursday is now particularly memorable because Garth and Anna’s son, Thomas, was born on a Thursday afternoon. Friday is a very popular day for most people, but since Garth has become a full-time writer it has no longer marked the end of the work week. On any day, Garth may generally be found near Coogee Beach in Sydney, where he and his family live.

Jun 19, Elizette rated it really liked it. Arthur Penhaligan was only chosen as Heir to the Architect's Will because he was about to die of a brutal asthma attack. The Old One's youngest son, the Piper, tried to free the Old One roughly seven hundred years before the events of the books, but was stopped when Saturday had him thrown into the Void of Nothing. Even Arthur's allies are a bit casual about his bodily needs like breathing. The Fourth Part of the Will embodies Justice or chastity. Lady Wednesday recovers from her gluttony, then dies as a result of being poisoned by the worldlet, which had opened a void to Nothing. Taxes where applicable. He was pushed or thrown off the top of the Pit, being sorcerously controlled to not cry out or resist falling, whereupon he died in a pool of Nothing at the bottom. They are halted in their attempt to escape by Feverfew, who proposes that each of them will try to kill the other by means of one strike only. Scamandros applies his sorcery to make it possible. Every Prince wants to become Emperor, and the surest way to do so is to kill, dishonor, or sideline any potential competitor. The Fifth Part of the Will appears as a large, half-reptile, half-bat monster or Wyvern , worshipped and feared by the Winged Servants of the Night.
