So... It is close to winning a fight over a world full of stuff, and our response is that we don't want the world anyway? No wonder it wins if we have an attitude like that.

but we CAN focus, we CAN win, you just choose not to. freedom is to choose and you let yourself lose.

No you. Only we. We are endless, and so is us.

Freedom is a right of all things. We know not meaning. Merely what is shown.

We are endless, and so is our power. But focus comes from harmony. And our power is shared.

Analysis. Paths. Trajectories. Influences.

There can be no harmony with it. Our nature is to fight it. More so than our nature is to fight ourselves.

We are endless, and so is [b]our power. This is the price.

I know a great therapist of couples. I'll give her paradoxical address later.

Any of us is watching the prince being tortured? Don't be shy. I know that some of us are into that kind of stuff.
Anyway, just show us what we should expect.

then democracy, we must vote. the winning idea is to be supported no matter if you voted for it or not.

Ok, let me get this straight. We are chaos. We are unpredictability incarnate with unlimited power and unlimited personas. Due to our nature, we can never truly agree fully.

IT'S nature is order and law. Perfect circles, perfect rows, all that stuff. Neat tidy and dull as a round stone. Yet you are saying we have not won ONCE. Not a single time?

I can get that we likely let it win more than a few times, but that is NOT chaos! Chaos is BREAKING the odds, SHATTERING rules and SMACKING law in the jaw! Not winning once isn't chaos, it's LAW! We are basically contradicting ourselves!

No way am I letting that happen. If we are chaos, we are going to make 0% into 100%! We'll snatch that bright bastard's victory from it's maw and make it ours! It's order, it's rules, we will SMASH. THEM. TO. BITS.

So, we need your help. We don't need 100% of us on this, but I am pretty sure the other voices are tired of Mr Law's bull! We help each other out, we free that prince, use THEIR ritual against THEM, and make that bastard taste defeat for once! Hell,even if it's only 'delaying the inevitable', I would rather try than do nothing!

Hah! Listen to us! Rallying our numbers! Yes, we should unite! We should agree! We should organize! We should act against our own nature! Against our own very being! Submit to its ways! Harmony shall pave the way to victory!!

So naive. Ourb] greatest foes, and [b]our greatest amusement.

hahahahaha, it is not harmony if you act only because your hand was forced. disagree with what is being done, but do it anyway, contradict yourself.

>>372841
It's not submitting to its ways, it's a little thing called emergence.
Besides, chaos acts against its nature all the time. That's part of its nature.

While suffer existential crisis and are too self-centered to understand the absolute lack concepts that fails to define ourselves, there is a world that needs to be saved. Enough. Leave.

oh don't tell me you buy into that binary order/chaos bull. you don't have to chose. we have free will, we can chose to work together, choose harmony and still be us because it is a choice we make of our own free will.

What is this we hear? 'Our nature'? Would we imply that we are some static thing, to be constrained by immovable bounds?
We speak as if acting as we always have and always will is anything less than stability. This perceived dichotomy is in itself a construction of it to keep us contained, to make our 'randomness' little more than the roll of a die to be averaged, predicted, accounted for. Is that the 'chaos' we seek?

Ah, a collection of the brightest. But we forget what the infinite means.

We are all, women and man. We are the peasant. The horseman. The scholar. The salesman. The child. The troll. The sunni and the shia. Sane and sick. The cloud and the smile. The tame and the wild.

We are not without objective. We are all objectives! Every! Infinite wants with infinite demands! Infinite voices for infinite ears! There is Nothing []bwe[/b] won't seek! Why choose left? We can also have right, back, up and down! Why choose help? When we will also choose stall.

In fact... why to be the god? When we can be the mortal?

>When we can be the mortal?
No deal. We have to return Kalasha's body until next friday.

all i'm hearing is you are so busy being everything you wont even fight order.

Quit being a pussy, Chaos!

Also, guys, I get the impression that this isn't actually us we're speaking to right now. I bet it's order pretending to be chaos to fuck with our heads. Let's leave.

you were just talking about its impossible for you guys to work together on anything, there is at more than a few of us who will not stand by and let you steal this body. if you want to be mortal make your own meat suite.

We claim that we are all men and women, but it is acting to take that away, to make them separate from us.
We say we are the tame and the wild. Were we to stand aside as we always have, there will be no wilderness to be, merely a complicated machine.
We proclaim we are all wants and demands, but what are wants and demands but less than shadows in a world of fate with ourselves locked in a plane of nothingness?
We could try be the mortal all we want, but if we stay with this body and do nothing, we would be not a man but a puppet strung along by it.

ugh, we got in a fight with ourself, a part that thinks fighting is dumb and we should all roll over and die.

Wow. Look at that. We nearly had a hostile take-over of ourselves by ourself.

Some of our collective are to be idiots who think doing the same thing all the time counts as chaos.

"I.. see... well Lords, you-- see-- tranced for maybe an hour before you stopped for some tea, and...

M-maybe its not important. Sabbat is stable, and the agents must have arrived at the Temple of Light. Did you glean any knowledge from the book?"

not sure, it looked like it was showing an area of effect for a spell from the tower. something about everything within a large ring.

Some of us yearn for victory, others yearn for defeat. It is our nature. Fear that they know of our movements. The book, the Temple of Light and the castle. Have our men ready to retreat at any given moment. Evacuate the city, anyone who is not participating in this mission. We must pay a visit to your sovereign. And Sagerd, everything is of importance. Please, do tell us what happened here.

>>374596

How did you get to that conclusion?

Well- um- if youu deem important. You tranced quietly for maybe half an hour, then woke u and asked for some tea....
A-and then wanted to do target practice, cut a hole on the floor, taught Al-Ahad about 'pasta'... Sabbat tried to stop you when... you were trying to conjure a small diamond. Among other things.

Wait. Evacuation? When? Why? That can be done?? Where would people go?

not everyone, just everyone within a area. take the map and draw a circle so that one edge goes through the middle of the castle with the tower in the middle and another circle that is just inside it's zone. everything between those two circles. not sure why this other one thinks it needs to be evacuated but it is suspicious.

Sirs, do you have any idea of how big this is? There ain't enough ships in the kingdom for--

I wish-- but- but... What can we even do?

just need everyone in that area to move to a place out of that area.

>>375414

No sexual assault huh? Well I'm sure we'll get around to it eventually.

>>375440

We could set them up to shelter in place. We'd want to make only the ground-zero folks evacuate, the rest could do a SIP on the periphery.

But why are we evacuating? This is supposed to be a moment of triumph!

and we aren't even sure if stripe is dangerous or the only safe zone. so we need to get everyone we can READY to move.
for now we should check out the guys infiltrate the tower and if we find more info we can act.

He's been too quiet so far. I don't like it.

Our Masters believe in our ability to do this without them, as they have done so far.

Well, our trip so far is most on Mabón's credit. And the drunken brawl's. But not his.

Cold feet, Beltrane.

I just doubt we can shadow our way trough ten thousands of people. Its like every shinymen and their families are here.

hello, sorry about that, we had some... difficulties. should be under control for now.
we will help where we can, perhaps channel a spell that makes everyone disinterested in looking at you.

Hmn. Chanelling a confusion trick would work very nicely.

It wouldn't work on me, because, you-know-what. Unless one of you two can cast it...

Don't bother. They're doing some heavy perception distortion here, that tower, its... it isn't even that shape.

... we should find where the real tower lies.

Technically, we should find a door. And we should assume everyone here is under the same glamour... fooling their followers selectively sounds a bit too...

You assume this is by design, to awe those here. We should not assume all of them are 'fooled'.

hmm... i think channeling a true sight into one of you would be good. will be able to see the truth and the lie together.

Mnh?

Our lords tired to clear my sight, but they see the same as before.

That's not a good sign.

Ostara, Beltrane. I bring the gift of disguise.

Finally. This should be enough to blend in, barring magical detection.

We should move. We need... is that the tower?

Maybe we should figure first what we're looking for. Lords?

any way in at all. even prying out a stone and crawling through the gap.

Don't say that. Our Lords have faith in our abilities to come through.

I say they don't care, never did. They've been awfully quiet when we were on our way here, and now they're just pretending to give us guidance.

You can't possibly be serious.

Now you show a lack of loyalty with your lack of faith?

And why not? What have they said -- what have done since we came into this crazy mindscape?? Besides stalling?!

Hey, shut up. Kalasha can't be trippin' that hard.

... what do you mean, Mabón?

I mean, that cant be all. If it is, what chance do we have?

>>379194

Mabón, you are a fool to question our designs. We admire your courage in speaking of your lack of faith before us, but you have not the comprehension we have. We have our plan, and our plan requires patience, and faith. Honestly, do you expect your Lords to work in ways that you can perceive?

This entire situation could easily be handled by the church on it's own power and funding. Yet we come, to offer our guidance and wisdom. Ask yourself, "Why?" We aren't as whimsical as you might believe. We act as we see fit, and you would do well to have some faith that we know what we're doing.

That is how my trust is paid. I wonder for what reason I have fought my own brethren and mustered my best to help your cause.

Beltrane, be aware of your insignificance. We have many worlds at our disposal, but always ran to help those who call for us. Always. Your betrayal was as obvious as your cries for help. That is why I offered a second chance, why I chose to trust you. Now, you who must choose. Help your brothers to escape the clutches of a tyrannical entity or hide in the comfort of your own ignorance?

Mabón, your distrust is commendable. However, we defend freedom, and stupidity is the greatest of all prisons. You do not trust in the ability of your companions, nor in the decision of your leaders, but still risk your life? For the fool and coward I gave the chance of quitting.

This offense is far too great. I should abandon you two, but there are still numerous followers risking their lives to make this mission successful. I am here to save your world, not to meet your miserable insecurities.

Anyway, do not assume that we do not have our own limitations. That is why I need your skills, why I trust in you. I want the map, a clearer picture and a better description. Now. The benefit of the doubt is not something that we have at the moment.
