Vliched wrote: You probably also knew this but, it could mean THE Axolotl. In the Gravity Falls choose your own adventure book, Dipper and Mabel meet the Axolotl. It is shown to be the equivilent of a god. Dipper and Mabel are both are given the chance to ask one question.Mabel wastes hers but Dipper asks the Axolotl what he knows about Bill Cipher. The Axolotl responds with:

"Sixty degrees that come in threes.

Watches from within birch trees.

Saw his own dimension burn.

Misses home and cant return.

Says he's happy. He's a liar:

Blame the arson for the fire.

If he wants to shirk the blame,

He'll have to invoke my name.

One way to absolve his crime.

A different form, a different time."



The reason this is relevent is because it is the Axolotl, and a few more reasons. A couple noticable similaritys between the two phrases are:

1: "Blame the arson for the fire". This can be referenced to "My time has come to burn".

2: "He'll have to INVOKE my name'. This may be related to the exact same word being used by Bill."I INVOKE the ancient power that I may return!".

3: Im pretty sure The Axolotl counts as an "ancient power".

In response to what you said about the Axolotl being an ancient power, i'm pretty sure that's accurate, considering it said Bill would have to "invoke my name" to come back.
