Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Is that what this means?

@Server

Symbolism. The lighthouse must be your core, your mind/body/spirit. The surrounding ocean, the forces tearing you apart due to hunger, the blockage curse placed on you, your instinctual survival instinct causing your desperation... yeah...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Okay...
*Takes a moment to clear my mind and holds my hands around the cube*

@Server

*Immediately we exit our bodies and suddenly we drift outwards as if we are crossing a fish-eyed lens and before even one second passes, we find ourselves hovering over a storming ocean with kaleidoscopic skies above, and an enigmatic lighthouse senselessly illuminating the surroundings*

Scene of Jades ethereal storm

Whoah! Well... *Covers my face from the stormy ocean and water from entering my eyes* This is... huh... Struggling energies allright...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

It's all weird to me, really.
*Sits down*

@Server

*I place my palms facing two sides of the hovering cube* Place your left palm on top of the cube and your right below, but first take a few deep breaths to prepare your awareness... this is going to be instant... like crossing the threshold of a gateway...

*Motions toward a few couches surrounding a coffee table with adventuring gear catalogues*
It's a work in progress.

@Server

*Nods and takes a seat, puts the tesseract on the table, waves my hand over it as it begins to hover gently and emanate an aura of distorted air, akin to the early stages of a fata morgana effect*

Right, i'm ready whenever you are. It's alright if this artifact seems weird to me. I've been with it for centuries now... and it is still weird to me...
*I chuckle*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Okay... I'm trusting you to help me here.

@Server

And that's what i intend to do... So this is the lounge huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*Frowns*
Why do you think... I did something?

@Server

*Smiles friendly to reassure you* No Jade. I'm not insinuating anything, i'm merely stating my objective morality. And also i'm taking my own step of precaution. I have not known you long, so i'm merely stating every possible scenario on the open. I only pray you did nothing. And even if you did, i won't know unless you reveal it to me. But that said, it was merely a comparison, to say, leaving somebody in a condition of slow and painful withering and starvation, is disgusting in my eyes.

<Snipped quote by Server>

I would. But even regardless of whether I do or not, I’m not so sure the mind is the answer. I share your doubts.
*Clears my throat*
Do you know who it was that made you like this?

@Magnanimity

Regardless, everything is interconnected. The mind works with emotions, emotions act as the bridge between the mind and the soul, the soul operates through the subconscious and via the subconscious acts as a link to the spirit and the consciousness itself. It all is kindof like web of zigzag connections.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*Shakes my head*
My aunt did those a lot though.

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

His name is Mierno...

@Server

No worries then, it will be alright. And Mierno... i don't know that name. But doing something like this to even the worse of my enemies, would be something far too putrid morally. He and i better not cross paths solely because of how he treated you, even if his motives were just and you did something evil yourself.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Okay...

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I don't think it's mind-related...

@Server

*follows you to the lounge* When we enter the ether state, it will probably feel... have you ever had out of body experiences?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I can think of a thousand ways it could get worse. If it were just me, I’d try to learn more before acting.But, if you’re both insistent…

<Snipped quote by Server>

Matters of the mind do happen to be in my resume. Assuming this is a matter of the mind at all, anyway.

@Magnanimity

@Server
Interesting. My powers cover a wide spectrum of aspects of existence, i can deal with several layers of being, from mind, emotions, soul, spirit, consciousness, the etma... *I trail off realising i'm beginning to rant about too much knowledge about the being*

That said. You are more than welcome to join us if you have expertise in this domain. It will help you alleviate your concerns if you helped in this adventure?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

One of the reasons I'm still working is to find someone who can help... I feel like I at least need to let him try.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm willing to. One of my coworkers can—
*Yawns*
Manage in the meantime.

@Server

*Nods stoically* Remember, when in the mind space, you will be your full self, you won't suffer the effects of the withering there, and you will be in control of what you want me to see and what you don't. Other than that. Let us proceed.
*I get up from the table waiting to be led to the lounge*
