Dias is born William: I ABDICATE THE THRONE
"If you manage to win the war, you must name your first child with Nisha, Dias," the Primordial Goddess giggled. "Just so you know, that child is destined to overthrow you when he grows up."

LITERALLY, you are correct. The author made a bad choice with "just as likely as anything else" But I think the intention is to say that results that don't appear random are *underrepresented* in created randomness vs true randomness
"But anyway, where I was going with this is simple. While the Devil might seem calm and collected, he's not really. He's petty, he's angry, and he's lazy. He doesn't like losing, and he definitely doesn't like being tricked," Eiro pointed out, beginning to guide his party through the structure around them. While he wasn't able to sense anything beyond the walls, he could still expand his senses through the halls. As they continued on, Eiro was not only creating a mental map of this place, which was useful even if it didn't technically make sense spatially, but he was also analyzing the patterns of this structure. Even if it seemed random, that wasn't really the case. Actually, compared to true randomness, if someone actively tried to make something 'appear' random, they ended up making it seem less random to someone that knew what they were looking for. If you had a sequence of ten coin-tosses, a complete, true fifty-fifty chance at either side appearing, it would be just as possible for a sequence of five 'tail' throws to appear as anything else. In the end, any combination of throws was just as likely as any other; that was the randomness. However, a sequence of the same results five times in a row simply didn't... look random enough. If you told someone to note down a random sequence of possible coin throws, they would only ever stick the same side right after each other two or three times in a row. What was truly random, and what 'appeared' random wasn't always the same.

The brain received visual inputs from both eyes, however, both eyes were positioned seperately, meaning the visual input they supplied to the brain were different. The reason people had a singular vision despite two eyes was because the brain merged those two images. Diplopia was the condition of having double images due to the brain not fusing the two separate feeds from the eyes properly.

auction having* ended
With the auction has ended, the streets are pretty crowded, so they make a quick stop along the way to collect a few trinkets and oddities that are unique to Tortuga, as well as a few more of the small cosmetics bags. The price isn't low, but it's not beyond their means, and being able to organize their storage is so much better than the way things were before.

"What took you so long?" William complained as he and Ahriman distanced themselves from each other the moment the giant flying fortress made its appearance.
