Question for everyone here, do we know why OW released them? I remember reading that they were unbelievers that Menoth exiled to uncaern, but what does that have to do with anything else? I remember PP seemed to imply that their release had something to do with the infernal deal, but I was never clear on how. Since OW3 still works alongside Khador I assume she's not just doing it for the pure human murdering/suffering fun of it.

From what I gathered, she was concerned about the Dragons.
Dragonblight is a mess. Dragonblight is spreading because of the upswing in draconic activity. Dragonspawn are damn scary for mortal armies to face.
And too much dragonblight = courrupted Caen = Orborous coming back....
So, faced with the choice of Orborous, rampant dragons, or uncorking this particular genie to try to deal with them... the Old Witch tried to break out the Deniers (those who denied Menoth).
But they were in Urcaen, which is functionally infinite. So finding them was bloody difficult, even for the Old Witch. But Gremlins pop back and forth between Caen and Urcaen at will. At Lady Kariiana Rose was in a lunatic asylum, having gone mad at the loss of her family, and treating the gremlins ("She sees gremlins, keep her locked up!") as her children. So OW broke her out, and asked as a favour, if she could get her "children" to do something for her. And the gremlins went and found the Defiers. Who (functionally) stood up and waved and shouted "Oi, Zevanna, we're over here!". And the Old Witch rebuilt Scrapjack into an interdimensional portal disguised as a house on legs (as you do), and the Defiers walked forth onto Caen... and their nightmares began manifesting... and every Grymkin on Caen turned and went "oooo, hiyah boss!"
No idea re the Infernals.

Is the Old Witch Working with Khador or not? I keep hearing contradictory information. Old Witch 2 is Khadoran and Old Witch 3 is Grimkyn.

The thing to remember that to the Old Witch, Khador is not its people or the borders, it's the land itself. She's a being beyond concepts like loyalty to a country or a ruler. So yes, she still works with Khador, in so much that she doesn't want the land that is considered Khador to be corrupted. |

I freaking hate their "Identical Model" Gimmick. |
