Backdated to 2 days into the second week of the month of the goat

[papacerberus]

As many of you already know, I retained the ability to discern the will of other creatures, and I have been employing that ability to gain knowledge of the Singer of the corrupted Song. It is a draining process, so I had to split it into two forays, and I reported the first a few days ago. I just finished the second one.

Just for the ease of listeners, this was what I discovered the first time: There were two wills, and one was dominating the other. The dominated will was bitter and anguished.

This time I focused my efforts more deeply on the dominated will. These are the results. The Singer has been...programed by that other will. There is room for disobedience to that programming, but the Singer shies away from contemplating it because of the painful consequences. The Singer also wills for an end, either for healing and freedom from the demands of the other will, or for death and the rest that brings, but does not strive towards those because the Singer believes both options to be impossible.

We can give the Singer hope for an end, and I believe we must. That anguish must be stopped, one way or another. Who is with me, and does anyone have ideas on how to undo programming of that kind?

In order to try to use Convert on it, yes.

[thornsofmalkav]

... okay. Yes. Do it. I'll come along and Sing of Breath if you have to go Atma.

[loyalrebel]

Atma is the last resort.

...I have no idea how actually large this thing is.

[thornsofmalkav]

... oh my god. Right. You're Middle Ages Man. All you'd have are bestiaries and we all know what those are like.

So. Uh. This thing is, like, probably nearly ten times as long as you are tall.

Whales are as huge as fuck.

[loyalrebel]

Seems like a challenge.

I suppose I have accepted it anyway.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. Yeah, you sure have.



... I just realized: even if we do our best to make sure the Infiltrators aren't there, there's still a chance we might miss one. And you're dead.

You might have to disguise yourself as your ghost. Again.

[loyalrebel]

There are worse things to have to be, I can teleport in to a location from a bit of a distance if needed as well to keep up the disguise.

[thornsofmalkav]

... excellent.
