 [01:23] AT: ∴ Ah, Eric, you survived your entry; I'm glad to hear from you. ∴

 [01:23] CC: —―{ Unfortunately, you are the minority on that subject. }—―

 [01:24] AT: ∴ Oh truly? What gives you that impression? ∴

 [01:25] CC: —―{ I made a large error in my logic during entry, one which involves my sprite. }—―

 [01:26] AT: ∴ I feel I may have as well; I didn't add an organic component. ∴

 [01:28] CC: —―{ What I prototyped might outrank yours in severity, considering it is now loose. }—―

 [01:29] AT: ∴ Indeed? Now I'm curious; What exactly did you recieve in your boxes? ∴

 [01:29] CC: —―{ I did not prototype my boxes. }—―

 [01:30] CC: —―{ My rage and hubris got the best of me. }—―

 [01:30] AT: ∴ Ah ha... I feel that may have been your first error; ∴

 [01:30] AT: ∴ What did you prototype? ∴

 [01:30] CC: —―{ I prototyped what Lily calls "A Horrorterror." }—―

 [01:31] AT: ∴ Horrorterror? Like those black monster gods you were writting about? ∴

 [01:32] CC: —―{ Yes. }—―

 [01:32] CC: —―{ I called them Outer Gods. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:33] AT: ∴ Ah, while I understand you wanting the "Outer God's" help in this game; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:33] AT: ∴ from my observation, I have noticed the imps crawling outside my house have taken on aspects of what I prototyped; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:34] AT: ∴ Particularly big mustaches, overcoats and ribben bowties. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:35] AT: ∴ *Ribbon ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:36] CC: —―{ I know, my planet is the equivalent of a dystopia. There are masses of machinery emerging from the molten rock below my feet. Not to mention those creatures. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:36] CC: —―{ I have not even tried to go outside. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:36] AT: ∴ Indeed; My world seems to be a stage with sets and facades and those imps. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:37] AT: ∴ I have also not gone outside yet. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:37] CC: —―{ Perhaps we all either get our personal hell or heaven, depending on our actions. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:37] AT: ∴ Did you prototype the "Horrorterror" first or second; that seems to make a difference. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:38] CC: —―{ I prototyped both of my items around the same time. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:38] AT: ∴ Hmm... what was the other item? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:39] CC: —―{ A book from my bookshelf, it was apparently tampered with. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:39] AT: ∴ The title of the book? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:39] CC: —―{ I do not remember exactly, but its subject was Ethnic Cleansing. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:41] AT: ∴ Oh my; I would venture to guess your sprite is some manner of Fascist Eldric God. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:41] AT: ∴ If our enemies take on an aspect of that, we may be in for quite the session. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:42] CC: —―{ You are correct. The worst of all however, is the fact that it disobey the rules of the game, refused to be my guide, and left. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:43] AT: ∴ Well, while that is quite unfortunate; you can take solice in the fact it didn't want you to mold you into some mannor of tenticle super solider. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:44] CC: —―{ Perhaps it knew I wanted to gain its knowledge, then decided to spite me by leaving. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:45] AT: ∴ Perhaps; though if I may offer a counter perspective, perhaps you have to impress it if you want its help; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:46] AT: ∴ Maybe divide the imps into 'classes' and force one group to marginalize the other? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:47] CC: —―{ That is an interesting idea, Enzo. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:47] AT: ∴ My mind seems to be working faster in this world; since everything is fake, I can only rely on my mind. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:48] AT: ∴ Nihil-Deicider UberMari seem to question that, but she questions everything. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:49] CC: —―{ My world seems to be amplifying my emotions. Perhaps trying to mold me into my title, the Mage of Rage. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:51] AT: ∴ Mage of Rage eh? Bit of an alliteration, if the prospect of an Irate Wizard is interesting; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:51] CC: —―{ Now that I think about it, my entry was mostly decided by emotion, rather than my logic. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:53] CC: —―{ I certainly see the "Mage" aspect of my title. I do know quite a lot about the supernatural. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:54] AT: ∴ Truly, I can't begin to understand what these titles mean; as an Heir of Void am I to be Sovereign of Nothingness? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:57] CC: —―{ Hmm... Perhaps you are destined to be a heir to nothing. Or perhaps it is a clever pun as Heir of Void in opposite order sounds like "Void of air.", meaning you might be suffocated somehow. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:59] AT: ∴ Well, I certainly would not want to be choked to death; Perhaps if I'm Heir to the Void, I'll be able to communicate with that Sprite of yours. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:59] CC: —―{ Or perhaps you will be the one to control it. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:00] AT: ∴ Perhaps, and who knows if these "Outer Gods" have some place in this world, if only as a concept. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:02] CC: —―{ The painting I threw in depicted Yog Sothoth. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:03] CC: —―{ It is stated Yog Sothoth was locked outside the universe. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:06] AT: ∴ Hmm, I'm not familiar with that sort of thing; do you know why they locked Mr. Sothoth out? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:10] CC: —―{ It is not said why he is locked outside of our universe. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:11] AT: ∴ Perhaps he was locked out of "our" universe, he may be in "this" universe, though the idea of multiple universes is a bit faulty; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:11] AT: ∴ It wouldn't be "unversal" if there were things outside of it. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:14] AT: ∴ *Universal, rather. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:15] CC: —―{ Perhaps the universe is a flower on a winding Morning Glory vine. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:16] AT: ∴ While nice imagry, there would need to be things supporting the life of said flower, therefore there would be things "outside of the universe". ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:17] CC: —―{ That would be the reason there is void, to encompass each universe, and to cultivate it. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:18] AT: ∴ Hmmm, Perhaps Void just is; meaning or use has to be defined by its need. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:22] CC: —―{ Or perhaps it is as alive as we are. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:23] AT: ∴ Well, Perhaps as Heir of Void, I am destined to become it; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:24] AT: ∴ An uneasy concept for me. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:25] CC: —―{ It is hard to wrap my head around it as well. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:31] CC: —―{ Empty space eventually fills up with something, so being a heir to the void is interesting. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:32] AT: ∴ Ah, but when empty space is filled, does it cease to be Void, and there for not in my domain? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:34] CC: —―{ Perhaps. When the void is filled, you have no say in what it becomes. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:35] AT: ∴ Well it simply won't be Void anymore; if the void if completely filled there would be no nothingness; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:35] AT: ∴ If anything would make me blip out of existance, I believe it would be that. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:36] CC: —―{ Where there is creation, there must be destruction. Our universe is quite orderly. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:38] AT: ∴ That I can agree with, but creation and destruction exist perpetually along side nothingness; Void is a constant, which gives me comfort. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:39] CC: —―{ Void is a rock, while Rage is a burning ember. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:41] AT: ∴ Hmmm, perhaps something more solid than rock, for even rocks can be destroyed; Void is a constant. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:42] CC: —―{ I agree, but for practical purposes, a rock suits the void. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:44] AT: ∴ I suppose; though I do agree Rage is usually coupled with destruction; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:48] AT: ∴ Perhaps as a Mage you can understand Rage and emotion on a scholarly level? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:49] CC: —―{ I can see that. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:53] CC: —―{ Anyways, I need to be going, living on what is basically a volcano makes it hard to sleep, so I need to start early. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:55] AT: ∴ Understandable; though you made an early and perhaps grave mistake, rest assured Eric, I will have your back. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:58] CC: —―{ Thank you, I will have your back as well. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:58] CC: —―{ Ciao. }—―

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [02:58] AT: ∴ Until we speak again. ∴
