28-2 On the Precipice (I)
I accept my death.I accept the coming end demanded of me for the greater good of existence, so that the next coming may be free of our taint.I accept the destruction of reality to wipe clean the sins of man.I accept my duty and task to bear the fires of sin and perdition, to infuse my body and bones...

28-1 Breadcrumbs
If you live long enough, there will come a time when the future thins, and the novelty of your experiences grows fewer and lesser by the day. As you develop your skill, you realize most never learn, and even the ones that do walk a path tattered from the treading, making mistakes you’ve seen anoth...

27-13 Last Days of the False Peace (IV)
Ball your fists and stand for who you are. The Guilds might kill you, my son, but always remember that death is never far.For what worth is a man if his words were not? A life lost in the attempt of righteousness hurts less than a dream never sought.There comes a moment where one must choose: wick o...

27-13 Last Days of the False Peace (III)
There is no higher sin than love, there is no greater transgression than to want, there is no greater failure of humanity, of existence, than our inability to face things as they are.No more.I will see us make this mistake no more. Love will hurt me no more. May only awareness ache when I think of t...

27-13 Last Days of the False Peace (I)
People ended up calling this time the last days of the false peace, because that's what it was. A false peace. Sure, the Guilds weren't fighting, but those half-strands were bound to get into it sooner or later.Even without us lighting the fuse, the High-Cuntus… well, she had her designs l...

27-9 Awakening
The content of a god’s character is molded from a common collective of beliefs. This is why many gods experience such drastic “personality” changes across the eras, and the reason behind their erratic behavior during certain moments in history.Think of people: ugly, undisciplined, mostly stupi...

Power, in the conception of the common person, is an expression of dominance. To control or inflict change on a level beyo...
