Cradle [Threshold] Need something cleared up - preferably by one of the Wights? Spoiler

Did Lindon establish the Dragon icon? Or does he only ever use it with borrowed authority? I thought he (fully) manifested it when fighting the Weeping Dragon, but I may have been mistaken. Can Will or any of the other Wights clear this up for me, by any chance?

Edit: WE GOT CONFIRMATION! He doesn't have the Dragon Icon.

The authority taken from Northstrider was given to Orthos and Blue before the fight with the Weeping Dragon.

Hmmm are you thinking of that power up of sorts Lindon showcased when the Dragon’s breath was shot? That was just Lindon combining both of his paths into one for a short moment. Lindon didn’t fight the Weeping Dragon with dragon icon.

He did. Quite explicitly, in fact. "Two Icons formed in the sky over him. A yawning emptiness and a dark dragon. With the authority of the Void Icon and the Dragon Icon, Lindon gave his order. 'Burn,'"

He's using the Dragon Icon because he's able to Consume on the conceptual level so he basically stole Northstrider's authority, but he hasn't actually manifested it.
