rithfan

Maybe its a code, based on the number of times Stick repeats his mantra. 1-27-21-3-2-16-1-1-1

I think this is the best reason. As William Muns disappeared sometime last year, maybe no rithmatics actually need to be replaced, since the last bunch of inceptions. If Nalizar is no longer alive (and not simply possessed like forgotten/Harding), maybe the investiture of Hardling by the forgotten took that allotment.
