They’re not all bad. Heck. The “Big X” I just mentioned is one of several hero organization in the IA. So their standing is more… Gray.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

It’s a long story, and it would quite literally be a pain to explain. So let’s just focus on her instead?

@Magnanimity

Well not beef with the whole Big X... just with its dickheads that's all...

And yeah, you are right, she is our priority here... @Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

Opposite end of the spectrum shy of extremes, actually. Seldom is my hand forced, but it hurts when it happens.

@Magnanimity

Who does hold such sway over your freedom to chose? And why continue to obey forces that cause you pain like that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

He might be trying to help and failing miserably. Or, he might be under the thumb of greater forces. I… have experience with both, to say the least.

@Magnanimity

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

For someone who didn't like their life?

@Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

As an alternative to the things I’ve been forced to do to them. I’d really prefer to not go deeper than that.

@Magnanimity

But that is just your story Orthrus. Do you claim to know this Mierno that well? Or even after you portrayed the group he's part of, the way you did?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Who is them?

@Server

*Looks attentively between the two of you as we are nearing the lighthouse*

<Snipped quote by Server>

That’s really just the best way to describe them. A ragtag band of rogues the Big X sometimes affiliate with who call themselves friends but have varying levels of morality. Not surprised to hear one of their ilk is involved.

@Magnanimity

Tsch... Another one of those types... well then now that makes it even more clear how much i want to punch their faces in...

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Are they dangerous? Do you think they'll come after me?

@Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

Based on what I know, they don’t frequently take action on a unified front like that all together. If Mierno is your enemy, you probably won’t have much more to worry about than him. Maybe another individual or two at worst.

@Magnanimity

*Sits crouched on the coast of the small rock where the lighthouse is and reforms the waves into waves of gold just a small area in front of me* Not if i have something to say about that. I won't stand idly by as these kinds of people wreak havoc across existence...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

I know the name. He's associated with them...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

That's all well and good, but what if it's a literal physical parasite?
*Follows you both to the lounge and takes a seat, entering manifesting myself in the mindworld and yet retaining physical presence and control over my real world body*

@Magnanimity

Things can be killed in the physical from the spiritual and the mental too... but good point

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm sorry—did I do something wrong?

@Server

Nope... i was just surprised at the bones jutting out of the ocean... Nothing wrong, just goth.... heheh

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'll... I'll try.
*Takes a few steps forward, and arches of bone fly up from the ocean and meet my feet at the nadir of each step, the bone descending to the raging depths when I lift my foot*

@Server

*hovers gracefully leaving a trail of warm light as i follow* That is curious... curious indeed...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

What a scary thing to think about...

@Server

This isn't scary Jade... this is almost beautiful in a way. So lead the way. You should know yourself best. Think about your feelings and your needs. They should pave the way towards where we should go next. I presume it all must actually take place inside that lighthouse.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I don't know how to paint anything like this though.

@Server

*Chuckles* No... neither do i... i presume this is the barrier between your mind and soul and subconscious. It is its own artist...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Who made all this?

@Server

Beats me... It seems to be almost universal... or er... omniversal, type of realm. I presume every creature has something like this in them? It is abstract, it is never one scene all the time however... picture a dreamscape. Ever-changing and adapting to thoughts and feelings. This must be a parallel of that.
