Now admittedly, that last one is a long shot lol. But then again, given how all of King's stories are connected in one way or another via the 'Dark Tower' series... maybe it's not so crazy. 👀
Anyway, there's been a Stephen King multiverse for a while now, and I'm glad people are catching on. 😁

4, cont.) And second, Maerlyn's Rainbow, aka Bends o' the Bow or the Wizard's Rainbow - 13 colored glass spheres. Twelve of them represent the Beams' Guardians, but the most powerful and most dangerous of them, Black Thirteen, represents the Dark Tower.

4, cont.) There are two instances in the 'Dark Tower' series I can think of where 13 comes up: First, when Roland draws the Beams and portals in 'The Waste Lands,' explaining that where all the Beams meet is "the Great Portal, the so-called Thirteenth Gate," aka the Dark Tower.
![An excerpt from 'The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands':
[A drawing of a circle with 12 Xs around the edge, now with six lines drawn from each X to the X across from it, resulting in a single point in the middle where all the lines cross]
He looked up. "Do you see where the lines cross in the center?"
Eddie felt gooseflesh crawl up his back and down his arms. His mouth was suddenly dry. "Is that it, Roland? Is that—"
Roland nodded. His long, lined face was grave. "At this nexus lies the Great Portal, the so-called Thirteenth Gate which rules not just this world but all worlds."
He tapped the center of the circle.
"Here is the Dark Tower for which I've searched my whole life."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pbdj6rzhzkwihlrdmbsplmru/bafkreif6cjwbop4imwu3yxc45lvnwnmimuqrfjmle4jvz76dgbttjdrgcm@jpeg)

Adding another one lol!
4) And now, after rewatching some of these clips from the show, I might've found one more 'Dark Tower' nod. Remember the scene where Necani and her tribe bury the shards to cage It in episode 4? It was specifically mentioned that 13 shards were buried.

3, cont.) I thought I might be reaching - and I still could be! - but Sesqui's headdress could've been anything. A wolf, eagle, buffalo, etc. Yet, it was a bear. Are they trying to tell us that Derry sits on the Maturin-Shardik (Bear-Turtle) Beam? Maybe? But if not, that's a hell of a coincidence.
