Oh? What would you suggest?

@souleaterfan320

Perhaps an automated defense system.

[Dynamics]

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

How much would you require?

@souleaterfan320

I mean, more is always better. I'd at least like to get some equipment.

@Host

In what sense? On what terms?

@Dynamics

Gather what you may need. This is going to take everything we've got.

@souleaterfan320

Are you bringing Techi? Lunar? How about X?

@souleaterfan320

Would you clarify the question?

[Disdain]

<Snipped quote by Realmatic>

Seth is irrelevant now. If you recall, when Seth was heavily damaged by Baphumet, I took his place for a short time. That is because I exist to prevent Seth from losing that which belongs to him—if the worst is to come, I exist that his Codex Essence may be transferred to my being. He was never in total possession of his Essence—it behaved like a link between us; the more danger Seth was in, the more it grew on my side. The less danger he was in, the more he possessed. If he were to be destroyed, protocol would be followed and I would maintain full possession of what made him a Codex to begin with. I exist that it may not fall into the wrong hands.

@Legend

So you are now, for all intents and purposes, Seth as a Codex, and Seth is just... well, nothing, now?

Of course and always, Spirit. I would love if we could get Ruby and Soren to come, but Ruby needs to be there for sure. I recalled back during our little scuffle with the nobles, I attempted to overpower Lance who wielded the Holy Sword at the given time. It was so powerful that it was litterally overcoming my life force , and in turn litterally tearing me apart. Ruby managed to hold me together until i could overpower Lance. Now, I need her to do something very similar, but dealing with much, much more energy. Well, possibly. Ill be using something that's never been tested to its maximum capability before, and it may overcome me.

@souleaterfan320

I believe Ruby is currently occupied with Techi, Soren, and Grim. We can discuss other ways to hold you together, perhaps by siphoning off the energy. I, for example, can absorb that energy.

Technologies not being the only resource that could be at your disposal.

@Galaxy Raider

*Follows you in* Hello, Sven. It is a pleasure to see you again.

@souleaterfan320

How can we help?

[Realmatic]

<Snipped quote by Realmatic>

Okay. And what advice do you have for us?

@Heroic

Notice everything. Use what you have to your advantage. For example, the bug eaters-- *Points at the Venus Fly Traps above* are attracted to light. The wood here is much brighter than what little light filters through the trees. You might have seen this earlier if you were paying attention, this and many other characteristics of the rainforest around you. Make sure you listen to everything we say.

@Host

What kind of automated denfense system are you suggesting?

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

So you are now, for all intents and purposes, Seth as a Codex, and Seth is just... well, nothing, now?

@Disdain

Correct. I have adopted everything regarding who Seth was as a Codex, but not as an individual. I also happen to no longer possess influence over enthalpy.

@souleaterfan320

The automated kind.

[Mammalia]

<Snipped quote by Host>

@souleaterfan320

We have access to incredible weaponry. I doubt it is impossible or even implausible to quickly establish a system which pinpoints and attacks enemy soldiers with said weaponry, no matter how powerful they may be.

[Disdain]

@Legend

Do you possess any other influence? And does anyone still control enthalpy?

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Do you possess any other influence? And does anyone still control enthalpy?

@Disdain

Yes. No. You see, I was constructed out of Seth's ability to influence enthalpy. Because we shared an Essence, the more of his Essence I had available to me, the greater my influence over enthalpy. However, my portion of his Essence was also unfortunately proportional to Seth's risk of death, which is why I began to deteriorate when Seth regained full health. Eventually, his Essence left me entirely and my lifespan was limited to however much ambient influence I had remaining; I could no longer externally influence enthalpy because all of my control went into holding myself together. In the final moment against Seth, I placed all of my remaining power into neutralizing his own.

@Legend

Are you now at risk from Baphumet?

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Are you now at risk from Baphumet?

@Disdain

I am. I am now a valid target. The idea was that if Seth were to be defeated by Baphumet, she would be incapable of extracting his Essence, as I would be in possession of it. But as his power grew, so did his pride and confidence in his inability to be destroyed. But unfortunately, his fate worse than death happened to be an inability to conflict with Baphumet. Because of that, I requested that you kill him, in order for protocol to transfer his Essence to me, as I am unrestrained by this.

@Legend

But now you don't have Seth's way to fight Baphumet. Do you have a plan?

@Disdain

Yes.

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

Yes.

@Legend

Good. I believe that may answer all my questions, unless you'd like to tell me any aspects of your plan which are relevant to me.
