There are even stronger forces, like the Higher Purpose and the Higher Random. The Purpose and the Random are driving forces on the different levels (worlds or realities) the Dark Tower connects. The Purpose and the Random are concepts elaborating the "grammar" of All-World introduced in Insomnia. The Random and the Purpose are like the red and the black squares on a checker board, defining each other by contrast. The ka-tet concept has been frequently used by King, even in books that do not use the terms ka or ka-tet, such as It, The Stand, Desperation, Insomnia, Dreamcatcher, and Duma Key. It is mentioned in The Stand by Judge Farris when he observes a crow outside his window that he believes is Randall Flagg shortly before he is killed by Flagg's men. The characters James Eric Gardener in The Tommyknockers and Rosie McClendon in Rose Madder also ponder ka. Ka is mentioned in some of King's other books, including Hearts in Atlantis, Desperation and Insomnia. Look up ka in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Roland's previous ka-tet included himself, Cuthbert Allgood, Jamie De Curry, and Alain Johns. Roland's ka-tet includes himself, Eddie Dean, Susannah Dean, Oy, and Jake Chambers. In the seventh novel, Susannah Dean, who ends up understanding ka maybe more than Roland himself, comes to the understanding that in simple terms, "ka-tet" means family. Sometimes the symbol of water is used literally, as in a ritual Roland and his ka-tet performs the night before the battle of Algul Siento.
It is said that a group has shared "khef" or the water of life. Ka-tet is the belief that a group of people can be tied together by fate, or ka.
We are one from many," says Roland Deschain on the day before the Battle of Algul Siento.
ka-me: ka's wiseman the opposite of ka-mai.ka-tel: a class of apprentice gunslingers.Ka is not necessarily a force of good or evil it manipulates both sides, and seems to have no definite morality of its own.īecause of the importance of ka to the world of King's Dark Tower, many phrases in the High Speech use the word ka, such as: Ka can be considered to be a guide, a destination, but is certainly not a plan-at least, not one that is known to mortals. It is the will of Gan, the approximate equivalent of destiny or fate, in King's fictional language of High Speech. In the books, it is a mysterious force that leads all living (and unliving) creatures. It is a word of the fictional language High Speech. Ka is a plot element in Stephen King's Dark Tower series. 2.1 The Higher Purpose and the Higher Random.
