28-9 Behold Your Savior (II)
There is no forever. For all things relative to people and gods, there is a beginning to the play, a middle, a progression, and an ending for all to come to a final, wondrous halt. Death, in other words. A final death. Cessation.
So many fear it. But, to me, it is something to earn. A crescendo to your life to make existence a masterpiece.
Have I ever told you how I obtained the seven? I didn't? Well, I think I won't. I think it will remain a mystery, be it u...

Enough.
I have seen enough.I have delved deep into the hearts of every man. I have gathered every color left to behold in existence and splashed them upon a canvas of my making. And I have seen enough. I have lived enough. I have experienced enough.
Victory.
Victory is damnation. Victory has revealed to me the folly of existence. All we are, all we have done for this, it shou...

+Here we go. Into the belly of Scale, where peace or ruin may follow. Listen close and keep your friends and families closer, consangs. This might be the beginning of the end.+

+The Dreamer knows. Such as we predicted. No matter. The other sacrifices are in place. Should we trigger the Forgotten now before the Guilds arrive? Strike with our opening?+
+No. Hold. We wait until an opening is engineered. Then we will sacrifice the Emotions to strike at the Gatekeeper.+
+This will not kill it. Its memory is cast across time itself by the hand of the High Seraph. Until her scar is removed, our ability to harm is limi...

“Oh, good. We’re all going to die.”

Opening Arguments (II)
Vator appreciated the insides of Scale more than its exterior. Here, there was a sense of life to the place: movement; animation. Drones flitted about, passing through forming and dissolving alcoves as if wasps in a hive. Around them, the bricks of this miracle-infused structure shifted, offering channe...

{{Tradition is a hard yoke to break. Some among my contemporaries claim that the terrestrials are merely delusional or culturally psychotic. This is inaccurate. They likely say these things not because they don't know better, but because they are warhawks and desire to sterilize the planet with one final engagement, settling matters left over from the Builder War. I do not believe and do not associate with their opinions.
No.
I think that the legal system of ...

No Road Back
"And you didn't lose me in this one?" Naeko asked. He was more tired than heartbroken at this point.
"Not yet," Veylis replied. "Not truly. You are here before me, are you not? You have even slowly returned to some semblance of your old self. Even this echo is better than the husk you were."
"The ...

All the Ways to Scale (II)
Avo regarded the vast statue placed at the epicenter of the Court of Truth. Twin interconnected hands clawed out at the world. One bore a feather, the other a blade, and enshadowed beneath its pedestal, stood Naeko alone. The Chief Paladin was clad i...

Working on the trial chapters. There are a lot of moving parts. This will run around 20-25 more chapters and lead into the next volume, "The Futures of Love Betrayed." Several very unexpected things will happen, but with the trial rolling and the players slide in place, arranging all the moving pieces will be hard but fun.
I will also try to update more for Godclads, and will keep to the current schedule as best I can for the near future.
However, one thing to note is that Though...

Diplomacy is not the art of bending someone to your will. No. Diplomacy is the act of making another fear they will betray themselves if they don’t give you what you want.

Proclamation
All around Avo, bursts of static blossomed like flaring embers. The various EGIs were speaking to each other, trying to process the meaning behind his words. They shouldn't be together. He meant that in so many ways.

+PRIORITY APEX THOUGHTCAST INCOMING+
Attention all active Mirrors (classification Convex and Concave). This message is from the Inner Council:
All operations are to be discontinued immediately. All cells are to adapt defensive stratagems. Shuffle your teams. Make your Sleepers go dark. Delete all memories stored within your proxy minds.
Approximately eight minutes and fourteen seconds ago, a ser...

+Hey, hey New Vultun. It’s your girl, Cala Marlowe here.
The big day is finally upon us. The Trial of the Century. Another one. Another big and ugly event sending us tumbling to an even uglier future. I won’t lie, consangs. Things are looking messy, and the Guilds are rolling out their heavy hitters and slowly raising the banners. The guns are out, and the lines are being drawn.
We live in interesting times. And, well, and let's just...

All minds under the polities of Voidwatch, this is Calvino, designation: Aegis. Today, I bear a special announcement. A new mind has petitioned to join our confederation.
This marks the first new applicant in 987 million years, standard distortion time. For those of you that were located afterward, the time frame might be drastically different. Regardless, this already unusual applicant bears an additional note of strangeness — the details have already been hyp...
