Another "revalation" for Lindon
Alright just figuring we can clearly see that Lindon is heading towards a sort of Creation Icon I will be sad if his next "revalation" (i.e. the one to give him the Void Icon) isn't "I am the beginning."
My head gives me a whole deal of ways it can be put in and make sense but honestly I just wanted to get this out there and still have an Essay to write for finals in college so yeah let's see what yall think and if I'm alone or not.
Either way ofc it's Will's choice but that feels poetic and sort of fits. "I started the SA so I don't feel worthless anymore." "I advance." "We (I) will never stop" "I am The End" "I am The Beginning"

Lindon is done with revelations as far as advancing through the Lord realm. To reach Monarch, he only has to bond with his remnant. As far as gaining an Icon, you don’t really have to have a revelation for that. Fury didn’t when gained the Strength Icon and Shen didn’t when he gained the Hunger Icon. For Lindon’s second Icon he is probably closest to the Hunger Icon with his new arm. He might be able to get a Soulsmith Icon for fixing Dross but only the creator (Will, Prime Judge, Mantle of Oreos) knows for sure.
Sort of. He used a revalation for his first Icon but yeah definitely it isnt necessary as shown by everyone. Hunger is already part of the Void Icon as Reaper pointed out so he can't really get that. He is also definitely going to get some sort of Creation Icon, thought obviously it might not be Creation itself but maybe something more of an offshoot. That has been hinted at too much to be a mere coincidence though you are of course right when you said that only Will, Manifestation of Oreos and Prime Judge is the only one to truly know.
Also, I just want him to make a revalation, I know it doesn't need it but it would be so right to have Lindon say it.
Hunger has similarities to the Void Icon but they aren’t the same. Shen told Lindon he was close to the Void Icon but he still manifested the Hunger Icon.
I was not sure that Shen manifested the Hunger Icon himself. Any time Lindon also feels a great focus of Hunger, he says it resonates with the Void Icon. I think Hunger is just a subset of the Void, like how the Hammer would be a subset of Creation and how Death is a subset of Destruction, etc. Ofc The Void is not on the same level as Creation or Destruction, as Lindon obviously does not have a Mantle and therefore its not exactly the best comparison, but that is seemingly the thing that makes the most sense, until we get a WoW to specify.

The fact Lindon did not hear Fury have a revelation does not mean Fury did not have one.
I still think he'll for sure get the strength icon, but honestly I can see that and other ones as just being a side note.
He needs to bond with a compatible spirit. Not necessarily his remnant or a remnant at all.
I think one possible advancement to Monarch is for Lindon is to merge with Dross.
This doesn't sound right.
Yerin bonded with Ruby, who was grown from her own Spirit. Dross has been growing from Yerin's Spirit.
It wasn't just a spirit that was attached to her, it was a spirit that had been attached to her for most of her life, during which time it had been consuming her spirit, soulfire, and lifeline to become an ever-more-exact copy of her. Dross is not like Lindon and Lindon merging with Dross would probably leave him much worse off than Ziel was when they met.
Yerin bonded with Ruby to advance to pseudo herald so she could win the tournament. She was only an Overlord so it was her only hope.
Lindon is a full Sage. Why would he bond to Dross when he could just bond with his own remnant and leave Dross as an independent entity?
