The angel is saying you were meant to die, and that would've motivated your brother to wage war against Julien. The angels would help at the right moment, and then steer him further towards conquering the world in their name.
Which of course, contradicts the policy of non-intervention without demonic interference. It seems the angel has let slip the cult's true intentions.

Can you draw the pistol and shoot accurately within 1 second? If you can get a headshot like that, the battle's over before it starts.

Let's stack the deck. Guide the conversation back towards G0D or Zir. Are they the same person? What happens to a world once the angels have control? What happened to their world, specifically?
See if you can get them lost in devotion again. That's a perfect time to attack.

Yah, they're saying you were meant to die, which they would allow to happen, so that your brother would be desperate enough to let them gut him and wield his face as their puppet prophet.

Ask this shell what differs them from their peers. Is there anything of who they were left, or are they just the mindless repetition of a verse.

Waste their time, and if they take their eyes off you for even a moment shoot them in the head.

>>1121323
Accurate assessment.
They will dismiss this as non active interferance.
Whispering ideas into pliable minds but not manifesting.

Kinda funny that the angels modus operendi sounds more like an archetypical demon at work with all the manipulations.

It seems demons are a grit in the gears of their so called prophecies.
An unseeable factor as its not part of the song of this world.
Songs which they seem to be able to see from the outside and tweak without entering the world.
Theyd be able to see the effect of vexs presence in the discordance and misplayed notes, but not specifically his position. The way theyre observing only shows what is of this world.

Im ruminating over this in part to see if i understand it right and, if that is so, then the angels may be unaware of vexs exact position. Which makes him, even in abscence, a good distraction.

I agree an attack has to happen. This arsehole has told eiko he is part of the gang that authored all their pain and that she should be grateful for it.

Getting him evangelising again is good, but to improve her chances... while they're mid sermon, looking behind them and saying "vex" or just indicating a unknown presence will likely elicit them turning to defend against a dangerous foe.
they know a demon is here, but cannot be sure where as their verse reading only seems to give them sight of local elements.

>>1121320
War eats souls.
And that's what these @#$%ers wanted.

They were going to turn your brother into a Templar. When that failed, they tried with the guy who murdered him.
They don't care who their converts are, only that they eventually become pawns of G0D.
They'd mold Julien into the exact same person, down to personality ticks, as they were planning to mold Akito into, on principle.

What is the worth of suffering?
I don't know.
But the concept of suffering is, at least, the minimum price of a functioning identity.

@#$% this prissy gentrification. Let's rip the past out of her and make her see what she's become.

>>1121321
"...Did you just tell me that leaving me to die at Julien's feet would have been a sacred act, and you're still trying to convert me? WOLVES! Rend."

Ah, one issue with shooting the angel is that you'll probably only get a couple shots off. They can make a forcefield that stops bullets.

UBERTO: “Do you think this diagram of the Halberd is related to the other drawings here? I’m not super certain of what I’m looking at.”

...huh, the boarded up passageway just leads back into the central corridor? Is it boarded up on both entrances? Wait, which room was the weapon storage? There were three storage rooms, we only went into two of them. Let's check the other. Should be the northernmost storage room, considering the orange symbol was in the southernmost storage room and presumably we entered it via its southern entrance. I didn't get a good look at the room itself; was there another tunnel leading northwest out of it, presumably blocked at the end by the boards?

Hey, do that divination thing again. The orange symbol should have moved, so... where did it go?

What exactly was Mary doing when the burning thing abducted her? If we know that, it could give us a clue as to what the creature wants. It may be the kind of monster that follows particular "rules" and attacks those who break them.

Oh, let's finish messing with this room before we check out the third storage room.
Can you unscrew the metal plates? Maybe with the point of a dagger?

What's familiar about the big bird symbol? Hmm, those are runes around the edge. Can they be translated?

Dis snatches up the blade end of severed spider's leg and Lisel pumps up the pressure in her acid thrower as your group makes haste to the south. The skittering sounds to the west draw closer as you leave, but aren't in time to catch you.

There's a twinge in your step but you are able to keep up as you wend through the same empty rooms.

Cedric is the first to reach the opening into the vent. He peeks inside. "Feh, its dark as a grave, I can't see a bleedin thing- ack!" Dis leans over the smaller mouse to stick her head in as well. She tilts her ears to the west as he grumbles under her. "Footsteps" she murmurs "three, no, four-pair. Getting... closer."

>>1121110
Ah, it's dark? When we first arrived we used that to our advantage. Extinguish light sources and huddle against the wall, and the patrol should pass by.

>>1121111

Not if there's a bat with them. If that's coming from inside the vent, then even if they don't know where we are now, they will the next time their bat sounds off and then we'll lose any surprise advantage.

That said, they're probably going to have to reorient when they leave the vent shaft, so killing lights and setting up an ambush here might not be a bad idea.

Bats don't see in the dark they use echolocation to hear what they can't see. SO maybe that can help you.

Let's go Leeroy Jenkins on this dark hole. The more time we spend second-guessing ourselves the more time we give our ENEMIES to attack us. We need to keep moving.

Crows are already most of the way to sapience already, so why not. In exchange, they can help explore more of the area around here. If they see any signs of living humans that would be a big lead towards finding out what happened to the planet. Or maybe they can find some newspapers... or an intact, unlocked phone or computer.

Crows would be extremely useful to have on hand, both for our own party and for the commune we're building. Their dietary needs are fine for the setup the bugs have built. Ascending to sapience would not be a major shock to them. This looks like a pure win-win.

Maybe you can unify all the crows under one group, the slime animal convoy.

crow wars crow wars crow wars

(crows are intelligent enough for tool building. perhaps they'll learn how to make computers in a year)

Time to eat some bad crows! We need a start making a name for ourselves. All who oppose us will go in our belly and we will not spit them out.

C. Maybe too many suitors?

Spy rat, you are probably not going to hear much of anything from that distance if she is mumbling quietly. Try getting closer to her, maybe hide under her dress.

A. Take knife with you
…
What if we killed her with it before we leave? No one will know it was us, and she will be permanently silent of our disappearance.

I don't think she completely meant what she said - that is, a part of her did but there's a smarter part of her that heads off that notion at the pass.
A. She's going to feel bad about chasing us off. That's what her doctor's for. Less time at home means more time to travel, and look for Lucy.

If she notices a missing rabbit. She'll be resentful and a little ashamed. Not of what she did but ofnlucy thinking badly of her.
If she notices a missing rabbit that still has his thumbs and a missing knife, she may be fearful enough to call it in to cargill.
Now, we dont plan to come back, true, but the more points of reference we give their trackers, the more the snare tightens on all the bunnys.

I say leave the knife.
And never come back.

This is true.

B. If you just go missing, she scared off a pet and it's not a huge deal. If you leave with the knife, the police get a report, and the gunless cop is more likely to fess up.

The inside of the garage is much different than you expected, you were expecting a mech hanger but there seems to be actual trucks and APCs in here. You can hear activity and it does sound like someone is here.

This place is an old Spaceport for certain.

Let's go see what people are doing.

mosey around

1: Rank these individuals in order of who you would like to awaken, from MOST to LEAST

1 - Lillian, The Athlete (she's gonna need our help to deal with the misfortune she will be facing thanks to Clive)
2 - Enid The Homeschooler Miracle (might as well get the original 6 kids we started out with awakened, feels that makes the most sense)
3 -Louie The Class President (I am not going to be holding my breath that we will succeed, as the original 6 kids we are helping is my main concern. but since we made it this far...)
4 - ‘Bec, The Rebel ( Influencing her will be tricky, as she’s loath to follow anyone’s will but her own. I feel the best way to direct her will would be to make our suggestions as appealing to her as possible if we want her to do something, while also allowing her to do what she wants now and then to still give her that sense of freedom if we want her to listen to us).
5 - Lemmy The Class Clown (ED couldn't have said it better myself... minus the jokes part, I can tolerate them)
6 - Jojo The Bully (seeing she was fated to meet her end until Albert intervened, and nothing of benefit will come from helping her, unfortunately, she has to face hardship she was originally fated to face if we want to push forward to a brighter future for everyone)
7. (UNKNOWN BOON) (Maybe if one or more of the people we followed had died, I would have taken that boon, as tempting as that is. I feel that Boon is for if we are desperate after losing lives, and if we got nowhere with the power plant investigation)


2: How many characters would you like to awaken?

four please.

Message too long. Click here to view the full text.

1:
Enid, Lillian, 'Bec, Lemmy, ?Boon?, Louie, Jojo
It might be surprising to see Lemmy not in dead last, but we can't really vote for the Mystery Boon- who frankly I assume is Aiden, without him too.
2:
All Seven.
3:
'Bec, Albert.
If we're awakening Bec, which looking at the count, we are for sure, she's probably going to need the safegaurd to act as freely as possible.
Albert is made of tissue paper.
...And in an ideal world, Louie would be third, for some reason I expect him to be one of the others with the highest Fear right now. Just a hunch.

One person voted seriously for an all in strategy therefore I am changing my vote to that (but my ordering for characters remains the same)

The Ranked List:

1)THE UNKNOWN BOON (the mystery box beckons! the box! the box!)

2) The Athlete (we stole her spotlight for too long)

3) The Miracle (the bad guys are always defeated by God's smallest creations: the marketable 5-year-olds)

4) The Class President (We mostly know him from Secret Santa 2022, but we need him for the best ending, and also I drew him playing with my character in that Secret Santa and sniff that stuff sticks with you, man)

5) The Rebel (she is willing to stick her neck out for others when things are bad, she's extra capable and interesting...but she's rude, potty-mouthed, so she lost points for that)

6) The Class Clown (he has a hard time taking his surroundings seriously, he's unpredictable, and his jokes sometimes land, which makes feel inadequate)

7) The Bully (She is interesting, but after going through the trouble of saving her, I think she deserves her rest)

Hmm actually, you know what if I'm able to shift my protect votes from albert to Temmie in the unlikely event that actually works I would be interested in that.

personally i really think you'll be okay here. the bunny boy seems trustworthy (and shockingly pretty). he's just gonna get you some medical care. jaden will uhhhh. he'll try not to get in trouble. pray for him.

>>1121302
This could either be very good or very bad.

If we're lucky, we made a new friend! Yay! And he's really nice and cute and understanding and likes talking to you and wants to share your interests and he's getting you medical attention which is pretty important too I guess but also he's super cute so don't be ashamed about having fantasies about him.

If we're not lucky, we just let a weird stranger take you away from your friend and drag you off to an unknown location. Even if he's not planning anything unwholesome, they might think you're taking the chance to get away from Jaden. It could make him look abusive, which he is not.

Okay, I'm pretty sure this is bad. Tell Swiss you changed your mind and Jaden should be here with you for whatever he's planning, because we trust Jaden and feel safe around him and Swiss seems nice but we just met and we want to be around someone we trust. I'm all for helping you gain emotional independence, but right now your and Jaden's safety is our highest priority.

I agree with leaving Herocea in reserve, as this group has already faced her once before. They would only be more efficient at dealing with her a second time. Let them focus on Oragatt, and have Herocea strike when they least expect it. If Herocea can attack even once while their backs are turned, the results could be devastating. Don't underestimate the power of a giant.

Flank the group. The Inquisitor will take time to bring down, and if you take her head-on then you will be peppered with attacks by the rest of her group while you fight her. Take out as many of the small fries as you can before addressing her.

I suggest Mind Slaving one of them, whoever you think will be susceptible, and having them attack their comrades while you come in from the opposite side, where their attention isn't. Split their attention from the start.

If you can prep it alongside the Mind Slave spell, I would also suggest casting Power Strike for your first attack, to increase your odds of taking someone out of combat before it even begins (or at least leave them in a really bad position). I'd suggest one of the giraffes.

Herocea can be reinforcement Oragatt will lead this ambush!
Oragatt bides her time waiting for the procession to reach the bridge, aiming to target the weaker rear soldiers, best to get them out of the way before the real fight begins!

Using [Power Strike] is unwarranted, she can easily crush the unarmored heads of these men... which poses a small problem, Kalez doesn't want her to kill, it feeds the undead war machine... Oragatt finds that a little silly given how many died of natural causes but it is an order to consider.
[Mind Slave] is good, it's not her fault if these people kill each other, and the men seem particularly weak minded-

The enemies are in place! it's time! The gargoyle leaps into action against two of the weaker soldiers.

Oragatt...
(a)Crushes the two men killing them.
(b)tries for some sort of non-lethal attack(Oragatt will need ideas on how to do that)
(c)Use [Mind Slave] or another spell

You got some weird dreams slinky.
We might be able to mess with them.
Promise we'll be good.
Eh
Reasonably good anyway,

Dont go wandering off without telling anyone, whatever you decide.

Oh, and of course youre feeling stronger.
You went through a lot and that has an effect on people.

The only thing im gonna insist on is this though.
Before you do anything, take a deep breath of fresh air and let the sunlight warm you.
Luxuriate in not being underground anymore.

Ah, I should've realized. Tanna's text color in the dream, and before that after we used Primordial power... It matches Whisper's color. Also she referenced Sound, which is not something Tanna should be familiar with if she were mortal. So, does Whisper want to destroy the world for the Yellow King's sake? He's stuck monitoring it forever, so if we destroyed it, he'd be freed. The gods would have to make a new one, but from the sound of things that's the only way to fix it-- start over. "So for kindred Soul, in treason I ‘tray." yeah, that points towards Whisper again.
Another possibility is that we just spoke to whatever's in the box... and they're in the box because they're already known as a traitor to the others. But I feel that's less likely due to other things pointing towards Whisper being tied to Tanna... like that song of silence.

Hey, possibly bad news. That rat you saw was actually a gorgeous snake-type lizardfolk lady with black scales and red eyes, who put Jacob to sleep (again) and was going to do something else (perhaps to Vax) but we didn't see. She was wearing a white suit with a yellow tie, had either a thin mask or face paint on the top of her head like a skull, and spoke to her boss on a cell phone. Do you have that kind of technology in your world? We've only seen Whisper and Nyahstur use one.

Also, uh, for reasons, how would you go about hiding your eyes without blinding yourself? There is something in your soul we must keep hidden. Speaking of which, how nice! Your eyes (and text) are yellow again, which means our Primordial power recharged. ...I wonder if that adds an extra layer of soul obfuscation. For now, try not to look anyone directly in the eyes.

THANKYOUTOO

>>1121200
Okay, so, we figured out some of your dark past after looking into your dreams, most of which you don't remember for a reason. Short answer: you were part of some death cult that thought the world itself was driven mad a long time ago and wanted to end it all so your 'real selves' could 'wake up'.

Thing is, past you hated reality, but hated prolonged torture even more. You'd been twisted by the cult to believe that you were all living in a magically-enforced illusion that would erase your memories and spit you out as a new person each time you died, at the behest of some richer-than-gods sociopaths looking for endless slapstick comedy, and you made it your life's work to make it stop. Supposedly, whatever is in that box is the master code switch or something that will turn the illusion off... but honestly it looks like your run-of-the-mill eldritch abomination summoning kit.

Now, the really bad news is, there is some evidence that the cult was onto something, even if their theories are straight-up escapist nuts. Things are... invading your world. Stuff that doesn't belong here. Weapons and tools that make master archwizards look like rowdy old men throwing little balls of fluff around.

Entire nations will be conquered overnight. Maybe they already have been and rule from the shadows.

Now, it's a good thing we know what this stuff is and how to use it! You just need to... well... find some way to steal a fragment of something about thirty levels above you.

Hey, Aspect: What do you think about death?

>>1121200
-caught up it just in time!

Long time no see, Tanna. But also nice to meet you. I'm new here. Do you still find it difficult to tell us apart? My name is Lun, or "Braided Song" if you prefer my pony name.

Anyway, we spoke to the King in Yellow. He's much nicer than we'd feared. He's working with our patron entity Solo to... protect the world, we think. They even gave us some new powers to help out!

But we're still not sure if the King can be trusted. The stories we know paint a much darker picture. Maybe they're just stories, or maybe this is a more benign manifestation of him, or maybe he has a hidden goal that's not so nice...

We'll keep an eye out for any warning signs. But until then, don't worry about it. All you need to worry about is finding something to eat! I'd say ask your companions if they have any to spare, and then go hunting to replenish your stock.

>Mel brings her phone and pipe

Breakpoint sounds more sure than the energy capture spell.

>>1121176
>10 or 12
No wonder she's better at Convenient Censorship then.

>Fundamental runes
Neato! I wonder what Fundamental means. Maybe they're "purer" than other rune types? Even the basic ones we got at the start are somewhat impure in concept-- they can mean several things. Darkness and Light might be just that, and nothing more. Alternatively maybe they signify fundamental forces of reality, and mean far *more* than simple dark and light. Maybe it's a yin/yang thing... in that case perhaps we should try making more rune combinations with the Ore rune to try to make Metal, which is one of the five Chinese elements. I'm not sure how we'd make Fire since Flare seems to already be that concept. Wood might be attainable by combining Nature with something... Life+Nature perhaps. Water is again a problem since Stream should be it. Oh, maybe all we have to do is combine Stream or Flare with Primal to get the more Fundamental concept. During the process I was worried that Eldritch was the root cause of the unusual combination, but now that we know the result was Fundamental, I think Primal will be used to reach other Fundamentals.
I wonder if they give stronger effects than expected when put into a 3-rune spell?

>make a 3-rune spell
Breakpoint seems good, but I am concerned about the range. We need something long range, or something we can place as a trap, or something we can attach to an object and then launch at the enemy.
...eh, it's probably good enough. We just need to sneak up on it, or use Tremor to create cover we can dodge between to avoid the blasts while we approach.

Ohhh wow that's a lot.
The TWO of swords. There's two of Gladii. Or, used to be? Left hand and right hand. What we saw on the card was their other "hand". Also that one voice in the Gallery listed out all the suits, with "Fera" as the last one... which is interesting since that voice was also using latin and Fera in Latin is Beast. So I think we can conclusively state that's what your name means. That word... can be interpreted in many ways. Why is its symbol a spiral though? Or maybe that's just your curly hair.
"Eripe nos ab existentia! A mundo!" translates to "Rescue us from existence! The world!". It seems even Gladii's Peanut Gallery wishes for death. Also apparently they had some sort of plan and Gladii screwed it up which resulted in their current state. Gladii tried to kill the universe, but the act somehow got them tied into the very nature of the universe itself...

...your hair color changed while you had the earpiece in. It was a lighter shade of pink, close to Gladii's skin color. ...I just realized, Gladii has a skin color, but everyone else we've seen appears to have white skin! Does that mean anything...?

Someone tried to sabotage your requisitions by putting what seems like a bomb on the list... that means there's a double agent in the Agency? Good thing whoever's in charge of authorization has some sense. Ask Gladii what the item was, since we can't know for sure.
>gun to heal Gladii
Uh, but Gladii can't die? What good is that? ...unle

aw damn, we should have asked for a mask, probably a big fan too. Get out of the room before you pass out, fall down, and get an eyeful of bask.

Don't pester Gladii anymore, but just rest in the hall. If she wants to talk be ready to listen.

Huh.
Her peanut gallery are far less horny than yours fera.
I dont know what this means about you or her or your respective subconciouses but, bears thinking about.
>>1120679
Aw, dammit.
No raver goggles.
I guess the agency is having a secret party without you.

Hmn. That other paper and the gun.
I... i think it might be the agency solution to her injuries.
The document see...
Are they implying gladi cant die?
Or that she dies but it doesnt take?
And they use it as a reset button on her?
Thats what it seems like and i dont like at all.
Lets find reasons not to shoot our buddy, huh?
Oh hey, you missed a bit. Use more paint thinner. View the chemical inhalation as a perk ofmthe job.

Gladii's character sheet lists their physical stats as "construct" stats.
And they implied that the Ten of Swords card is really them, even though it looks totally different...
Does it mean that they look different whenever they manifest? Will you look different the next time you manifest?
I like your current look, but I'm sure the new you will be just as pretty!

But then, they have a "true" height and weight listed where all their other stats are "n/a". So Gladii has a real body that's smaller and much lighter than their human body, but has no skin, hair, eyes, or blood. Could it be that they really are a sword?

Oh, but don't ask this out loud. Gladii doesn't like us prying into their secrets and they're already having a bad time.

>Her peanut gallery are far less horny than yours fera.
Do you think that's part of why Gladii has such an unhappy outlook on life? Their operating buddies are always giving them grief, but we like to show our agents a good time.

Hey Fera, after this assignment is done, what would you like to do for fun? Have some nice food? Go for a joyride? Maybe figure out some things about your body?

Lana: “Alright, let’s see what stuff we can pick from. We can take something from cache, as long as we put something new in it.”

She starts taking things out and laying them on the stump.

Lana: “Some fancy rocks, a goofy goldfish pen, oh man check out this sick knife!”

Kaari: “I-I’d rather not…”

She jabs it into the stump and moves on.
Lana: “A cassette tape? It’s a single from the Blood Soaked Hecklers!”

Kaari: “Wow, what are the odds. Which song is it?”

Lana: “Tropical Punch Clocks, with the first print blood stain pattern.”

Doesn't that purple rock remind you of Lana?

I hope Lana brought something nice to put in the box, cause all Kaari has is the firstaid kit. Actually why not put some of the the kit supplies in. Maybe a future seeker will have hurt themselves on the way and find that really helpful.

>>1120626
The goldfish pen. It's something you can use, and recognizable enough that it makes a good memento.

>what to put in?
Inventory check!

The cassette tape, maybe listen to some music, maybe somebody recorded over it to leave a secret message too?That’d be a laugh. Who knows, it might be super rare and you can sell it for a profit at an online auction for an fortune and get your life back on track!

Some bandages might be a good idea, considering all the weird bloodstains we’ve been seeing. We already know that at least two people got hurt today, including Lana. Someone who got hurt while searching for the box might appreciate it (tho that would mean they can only take the bandages)

>>1120637
Yep! Inventory check!
Ooh.
Do we have an interesting key chain mascotvwe dan bring ourself tompart with?
