[IC] Myriad Reality

[Disdain]

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

Recently, the combination of the NAN Sector and the rest of Existence has finalized. This was the reason for Yander's plan to recreate the original Trigger and restore it to the Original Generator, something you all have likely forgotten. Unfortunately, being at it when it happened resulted in the loss of two of us, Yander and Mikial. Regardless of this, the split that occurred in the first place has resulted in two versions of history. The combination of the two has resulted in the history I'm from becoming the true history, in layman's terms. There's more to this, of course, but that's the basis you need to understand.

In this history, the was a species-wide war between Codi. We all were dragged into it, though you Codex as always remained elsewhere. Eventually, however, we all gained Codex powers. This made the war very... different. There were two main factions in the end, and the leaders of the two are now setting their sights on the rest of Existence. When Baphumet killed two of us, I and another became Codex. That brings us to now.

That's right, little Codex~ It's tempting to simply be rid of you now, but where's the fun in that? Now that Azy is gone... Well, the idea of her becoming a Codex is slightly alarming. So I'll leave you free for now. But know this: There will come a time when you must choose to join me, or perish. See ya~

@The World

-One Codex- The Codi all have powers?
-Another- How can they be threatening Existence?
-Another- We did what we could before, but how are 32 of us meant to stop billions?

@Disdain

Yes. To varying degrees, just as Codex have throughout history. They are a threat mainly because of Nyarlathotep leading them. And our best bet would be to release Azatoth from her seal so that she and Nyarlathotep will begin fighting each other again. There are many who would support her. Though, then it becomes an issue of picking sides. I doubt that both sides can be defeated unless certain things come to pass.

@Threads of Fate

What are those things? If they both have their sights set on Existence, we have to deal with them both.

@Disdain

Starting with some basic tactics would do you well.

@System

-One- Basic tactics?
-Another- Do you mean working together? *Points* With him?
*Before the room gets louder, I interrupt*
-Abel is right. Remember what this Codex said: if we don't unite, we have a 98% chance of dying, all of us. Are you willing to gamble that 2%? The man that showed up here wants to kill us. You saw him thinking about it. If he can find us here, can he find us anywhere? And if you've avoided Baphumet yet, can you avoid being hunted by more than her? We'll find a way to make this palatable, but know that it's necessary.

You speak galvanizing words as a woman unfit to be leading the same group she betrayed.

*Grits my teeth* Making claims like that isn't how you unite people.

@Disdain

Perhaps not, but your presence will end up the most divisive of all.

I kind of have to be here, according to this Codex's calculations.

That doesn't include a need to speak.

@System

I'm just doing what seems right. Someone had to talk. If you want to set yourself up as a leader, then you can try later, but right now, I have the most credibility, and I'm going to use it while I can to make sure we're all willing to not die. Details can come later.

@Disdain

I've seen your hand when trying to prevent death. In fact, I'd call death preferable.

You speak as if I've promised to create the plan. I'm just ensuring there will be one, and that we'll all have the motivation to follow it.

I think that you've already wasted your chance to make a difference. It's your turn to be victim to the whims of others.

@System

There’s a new difference to make, and another chance to make right decisions rather than the wrong ones. I won’t stand by idly this time, whether or not I lead.

That's a wonderful empty promise to make.

I’m not making it to anybody but myself. My speech is done; the Codex are “galvanised” for now. Let’s stop making airs.

@System

We’ll just see what the situation demands. Ask your questions with a loud voice, if you want; step to the front when you do it, if you want. Just don’t act deliberately divisively. I’ll try not to, either. I had a bad enough time with Seth, and that ended... as badly as anything could.

@Disdain

Again, I would kindly ask that you step into the background and remain there. I have enough to worry about as it is.
