Hey, long time no see. After you went towards that light, we got separated from you, and somehow got stuck in the mind of a drugged up member of Root's cult, a doctor from that same cult, somehow able to prevent killing anyone when we were forced by Andrew, that demon, to kill one of the four cult members, saved WC's life after telling bad jokes, talked to puppets, watched a weird noncannon musical performance in Root's dream, and caught a glimpse of a political person talking to root during his tea time, and managed to save his children.

wow, some of that sounds ridiculous when I say that out loud without the contexts.

They are pretty dysfunctional from what I've seen, some of them hate their leader, some wants to take his job as cult leader, and some looks like they're just unfortunate people down on their luck who are blindly following Root in hopes for a better life.

I feel it will be pretty easy to get them on our side if we play our cards right, though at the same time it could be very easy for them to betray us given how dysfunctional they are.

We have Delilah, who is claimed by puppet Andrew as the worst member as she contributes very little to the cult, and gets drugged out every now and then. Root even plays into her drug addiction to get her into doing things he wants. She thinks she can be a better leader to kill you, and get other things done. Despite us voting against not killing her, Puppet Andrew claims he will kill her anyway. If we can somehow get to her before Andrew, we might be able to convince her to get her out of the cult. She was given a terrifying dream from us in hopes that she rethinks her drug addiction. Waiting to see how that will play out.

Clara is wheelchaired bound, and is wishing for death. Although she is helpless, Root is bringing her to meetings as a symbol of strength for surviving against your attacks. As such, he has ordered Dr Deadbeat to keep her alive. If we can find some way to apologies to her, and have her find a reason to live, she may persuade her sister to not hunt us down.

Dr Deadbeat is kind of a wimp, but he means well. I pity him. A lot of people bully him in the cult, but he doesn't seem to let it get to him too much. He requested for us to not kill Clara's sister if possible. Might be difficult, but if we can find a way for her to not try to kill us, and get her out of the cult, Deadbeat may be more willing to leave the cult as well.

I think Lorence is jealous in some ways of Root's leadership. We also seen him go against Root's orders by taking Clara away from Deadbeat, for what purpose I don't know. Puppet Andrew claims Lorence is trying too hard to have Andrew promote him.

We saw them having a celebration for Root's future victory, but was interrupted by Logan who was seeking revenge for the death of Absolution. Seems like Root was going to calmly talk to him, but we could not see what for as the person we were following (Delilah) ran away in fear during the meeting.

Three people were not in the celebration as they were busy. As Root puts it, Stitch is fishing, Rosalia is picking flowers, and Mr Tiova is looking for someone. I think at this moment, those are the people we should be looking out for

Also, I think there is a new player in town. A god of dreams, and imagination. From what we've seen, he knows of you, and is fairly neutral to us, but he hates Root for killing his brother. He said he was the brother of Absolution. Soooo I guess that makes him the uncle of AJ (Absolution-Jr). I don't know how he'll react to having him around but we'll see. And if we run into Logan having AJ as our eye will definitely put us in his good graces.

From the author
I must compliment that summary of the inner workings of the cult, using all the information so far. Perfect observation

Ah, yes, we forgot to mention this guy. This is the "Demon" that Absolution talked about. He isn't actually a part of Root as we are a part of you. He actually has more in common with WC than Root. He's an astral projection that's been cut off from his body and has obtained a kind of quasi-immortality. But he's also very powerful, and tried to play a death game with us and almost got WC killed. Luckily a few raunchy jokes later and a logic trap and he's safe. But here's the deal. What he wants is his body back, and to be flesh and blood again. We might be able to give that too him should we our power continue to grow, so it's a loose alliance we have here.

"Stitch find and kill Ana." You started it.

Well then how about this? Interfere and no flesh and blood for you Andrew, we said we'd help you didn't kill WC, so far you've held good on that promise, but if you turn on us we won't help you. This includes killing WC, or turning against us. We keep our promises, now it's your turn.

Alright, so here's Andrew's deal.

Right now, he is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Absolution had the power to bring him into the world with flesh but wouldn't. When he said that there was another voice that was following Root that was a "demon" he was talking about Andrew. However, he's starting to lose his control over Root, as he actually didn't want Root to kill Absolution. So he came to us and asked us to let him help you and give him a body... Specifically yours... we told him to fuck off.

So later he tried to get us to play a death game with some of the people we've seen, all of them being members of the cult that have a potential to be very valuable allies. We chose Wild Cat by mistake. We didn't know we were picking him though. However, we managed to make the game void by telling him that he was acting as a power dampener. See you have a god growing in you, and giving you power. If WC goes that power is going to skyrocket, and with that power we could kill him. So we told if he spared WC and let our power grow naturally, we could then use that power to give him a body, not ours, but his own. He agreed.

So now we have just changed it a little, if he turns on our agreement, or harms you in anyway, including giving orders for anyone to kill us, the deal is off and he will remain as his now.

Also, I forgot to mention during my summary of events earlier that Dr. Deadbeat's actual name is Lester. His name escaped me during the long explanation. Does that name sound familiar to you?

I don't know if this will help in any way in our quest, but currently, we are speaking with a person who was used as a scapegoat and is being blame for killing a lot of people which he didn't do. His wife pinned the massacre on him in court since it would help her family with her financial problems. He still loves her, but he feels intense anger and sadness for being betrayed by her. Did you hear of any court trials that sound similar to that? What are your thoughts of that?

...I want to be honest with you about something huge, but I don't know if what I will tell you will give you a huge existential crisis. Do you really want to know? Will your heart be able to take it? Yes, or no?

other than that, I'll just say that from here on out, I think it would be best to follow your own path. We will only give you suggestions on what we want you to do with what we think is best for your safety, and not cause an apocalypse on the world. But if you do not feel what we suggest is right at all, even if we all unanimously suggest you to do something you highly disagree with, you have my permission to ignore us, no questions asked and do your own thing. Andrew in retrospect would punish Root for not following his orders. That is why he forced us to choose who would die. We won't intentionally punish you if you don't follow our suggestions. In that respect, Root is a definition of what puppet is. Not you. It is your life to control, not ours. Think of our guides as suggestions, not as commands you are required to follow. In that respect, I don't see you as a puppet. Make your own choices. Be free.

As for choosing moral choices, it is difficult to see consequences of our actions in some moments. It can be easy to overlook very small details that would in the end cause major consequences. The most we can do is just try to be the best damn person we can be. We can't predict the future. We aren't perfect. Only thing we can do is try.

Amen.

Aaaaand... yeah... it's the same guy. This Lester was an astrology professor for a local university before shit went down, they switch between calling him Dr. Deadbeat and Dr. Spaceman. Guess he moved up after you graduated? Well he's obviously still alive and we told him that we were from you so he might help us if we run into him... provided Rosalia doesn't mind our presence...

Understandable. I won't drop a total bombshell and give you the entire truth until you yourself feel you are ready to handle it in that case, but I will give you part of the truth:

We, the voices, are nothing totally special as you may think we are. We are all just regular normal humans from a different universe, a different earth from yours, sitting behind the light of our computer screens, and using a website call "tgchan.org" to help guide you, and other people in many different universes in different ways and in different forms. We are sometimes in the form of voices in their head or other that they can have conversations with and help guide their actions, or sometimes just as their inner thoughts, without them knowing of our existence, while we push suggestions that we might need them to do to reach their goals. We have helped many people reach the conclusion they want for their goals, though sometimes we lose connection to them, and never know what happens (not saying they die or anything, just that our connection with them just ends abrubtly) If you feel you are ready to know more about us, and your universe, let us know. I'm only easing you in telling you all this.

Speaking of goals, we were given a look at different paths we can take to reach your "goal": The goal of a monster, the goal of an opportunist, the goal of being neutral, the goal of being a survivor, and the goal of being a hero. Currently, we are towards the path of the hero, but I must ask you: what goal do you want to reach? it doesn't have to be the goals that were laid out for us either btw.

Wake up, and get you gone, vermin.

As for you Andrew I'm at a bit of a loss as to do with you. I didn't give Ana that nightmare, I can only assume you know how to manufacture nightmares as I do. Well I don't exactly care for her. But I do care about my nephew. Lay a finger on her while my nephew is with her, and I know how to completely destroy you.

But! I'd rather not be enemies, in fact we have something in common. We both want the same thing. To punish Root for killing my brother. You, see I'm more of an "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" Kind of fellow. And we both know there is someone you wanted dead... you understand what I'm getting at?

Ah, Mr dreamwalker, sir. I wanted to speak with you as well

While I am terribly sorry for your loss, and while I respect your decision on choosing what dreams people must have, as dreams is one way to make people a better person, you must realize that revenge isn't going to bring your brother back. Gaining revenge is only going to make you feel empty, lost, and make more enemies wanting revenge against you.

I know this isn't my place to tell you how to do your job, but I must suggest that instead of using nightmares as a form of punishment for revenge, please at least think of the nightmares you give to Root and his followers as a way to advise them on making them a better person. Using them as a form of punishment is going to make you no different to how a puppet master treats his or her puppet to do things they want, and punish them for not following their orders. You must also know that some of his members are good people in heart, and are just lost, trying to find a better life than the previous terrible life they were given.

If you don't want to take my advise, at least keep my suggestion at heart.

I could never be disgusted at any human who guards my nephew. Root on the other hand... He is scum. A power obsessed, petty man. No im wrong, a he is less than a man, he is monster, a slave to his own ambition. And I see you a lost one, someone caught between life and death but unable to break their own cycle that they have trapped themselves in. As for being friends, perhaps in time, allies to be sure.

And as to your concerns about making them better people. it's a possiblity, I've seen many of their minds, and there are some among them who I would spare... But until they do repent, their dreams will give them no reprieve or rest, I have sworn it. And Root especially, he will have nothing but fear in his sleep. I can NEVER forgive him for what he took from me, and I plan to get even... My plan starts with Delilah leaving her brother...

And forgive me for not being clearer, Andrew. You wore the form of Root for a moment I thought you were him, i wasn't calling Ana vermin. You know my hatred for him runs deep. You may shelter his body and thoughts. But in sleep, he is mine.

As to how you can wake up Ana, I will simply eject you. It's a bit of a shock though, you'll wake up as if you feel yourself falling.

Ana, how do you feel about that deal they are making? I personally don't want your spiritual essence to be switched out with Root. But in the end, as I said before, my words are only advice for you. In the end, it is your freedom to choose.

Andrew... Are you suggesting I give my nephew over to Root, the man who killed his father, my brother, the man who robbed me of my family? That doesn't sound like something a friend would say to another, now does it. I'd choose your next words very carefully. A demon nothing to a god...

Plus. Call me crazy, Andrew but it sounds as if you are trying to take advantage of me and my nephew. You know full well of the power Ana will wield when AJ matures, as he grows so does she. If Root had that power he would be more powerful than he is now, have enough power to bring you into this world...

Do you take me for a fool?

Clearly, my point went over your head. Let me make it more clear for you.

I WILL NOT GIVE ANY OF MY FAMILY TO ROOT! YOU INSULT ME BY EVEN INSINUATING THAT I SHOULD!

How dare you?! Even the thought of giving him over infuriates me! We can be allies Andrew, but you even assume this as an option and you will have thrown any hope of this out the window!

AM. I. CLEAR?

And as for any more of my family? There is one other that you haven't met... But you will never know him.

Oh.

Ohhoho... Perfect...

Speaking of fatherly duties, Andrew. What kind of father leaves his child to get kidnapped by a stranger to go try an play games with other strangers? That doesn't strike me as very "fatherly."

Ha, jokes on you Andrew. I just plant the seeds of a nightmare, I can bend it and shift it if I wish, but I've found the minds of men can conjure more horrors than in hell, otherwise I just stand back and let their own minds terrify them.

And call me Morpheus dear, it's a name you humans Gabe me and I've grown to like it. I did no such thing. I have no powers over prophecy or memories. Although I can shape dreams based on memories. Who am I to question the word of Aos, my father. He is the one who is god of time, space, memories, chaos, and prophecy. it's just a guess but I suspect he is the one who originally gave certain humans the power to see their other selves. For what purpose I haven't a clue. He isn't benevolent or evil really, he just... is. I wish I knew all the answers to give you, my best guess is your other selves have more power than they realize and through the infinite possibilities that this unlocks gives them the knowledge to help you and tell you things. Again though I can only guess, if I knew why, I would be Aos, not merely Morpheus.

Child, I appreciate your concern and don't worry about tresspassing here. Whenever you wish to talk, all you need is to fall asleep. As for causing a stir in the cult, I have sworn an oath and I will not be deterred. And think of it this way, soon those that slowly leave the cult for their own reasons (if they ever do find a way out) will be saved from the nightmares, and word will spread. Where do you think they will go? You could offer sanctuary. If I were you, I would start to gather a following. Find Logan, and set up a base of operations. Slowly more people will find your resistance group. I will help you as best I can. And don't worry about them trying to kill me, they'll have to find me first and I've already ensured they won't.

And thank you, you helped make my brothers last moments peaceful, and if he considered you family, so do I, and I embrace you as my sister. And please, take care of AJ.

Now, are you ready to wake up?

Alright, get ready, like I said it will feel like you're falling for a second, it's always a bit of a shock.

Good luck!

See ya, dreamwalker. Keep what I said to you in mind, even if you don't plan on following it.

Oh, hey WC where to begin....

So apparently my other selves are able to time travel and see lives of others and found a whole bunch of dirt on Root and his cronies. Also Absolutions brother Morpheus has sworn vengeance on Root...

Where are we right now?

Hey, we just got done learning about the cult member Lorence.

Apparently, he was sent to prison because he was unwillingly forced to become a scapegoat for his wife, and some other mustachioed dude for the killing of a lot of people, and having secrets revealed. He spent a very long time in solitary confinement, losing his sanity, forgetting the face of his wife, and was tormented by the endless ticking of a clock that would not work in a lunch room. But he held no grudge against his wife or anyone at the time. Root saved him, and he started a new life under Root's order. as a symbolism of leaving his old life behind, he burned the corpse of a drugged man before leaving.

couple weeks later, he went back to the house he used to live in with his wife, only to find that she had moved far away, and changed her name to keep her distance from Lorence. Instead, he found a complete stranger living there who he thought was his wife. After figuring out she wasn't his wife, he drugged her to have her forget about him, and left that house. But he has told Root that during that time, he had a strong urge to kill when he was there, tormented by the ticking whenever he was going to do something he couldn't undo, as he puts it. Root somehow managed to find a way to make him forget his family to help with his sanity. No idea if he agreed to Root's offer to forget or not, but it is likely he did.

I wonder what would happen if he were to hear the ticking of that same clock right now? we might be able to use that as an advantage to trigger some memories of his family, but at the same time it might cause further problems with his sanity, and might even have him snap and go on a killing spree. We might want to try looking for that clock, and decide whether or not we want to destroy it so it won't cause trouble in case Root or another cult member would want to use it as a way to release Lorence's inner monster, or keep it, and find a way to use it to make Lorence remember his family, and his old life, and possibly get him out of the cult.

Other voices, tell me if I missed anything important in that summary please.

Hold up there now, it might be a good idea to introduce yourself now. Tumble out of the tires, keep hands up to show you mean no harm. Also if you want to help maybe make yourself look a little bumbling (a pratfall our the tires may make it look like you are a little helpless and plus it's good to make yourself look weak, makes enemies underestimate you).

My hands aren't moving while you've got a gun pointed at me. As a show of good will though will you allow me to take off my backpack so I may hand it to you, and you can get the shotgun? I don't see a weapon on your grandfather so I think it would be good if he had a weapon as well.

I simply wanted to talk with you because we both have some thing we both can use, information. We both know certain things about the cult and if we trade what we know we can figure out better ways of defending ourselves. And if you let me come with you, I have some extra skills that can prove very useful. We don't have to immediately trust each other, but we are the same side here.

There is no surviving, this fog is spreading and soon no place will be safe from the cults influence. The only option is to fight.

Thank you, listen for a second. It's good to have allies, we may not exactly be friends but I have a few people who I think could help you out. And this may sound odd but do you have a cellphone? If we remain in contact we can warn each other if either of us find anything out or if one of us is in danger. Would that be acceptable to you?

Lets vote on this before we decide.

If Ana wants to take down the cult, I think it might not be a good idea to join these strangers. They seem mean well as they just want to survive and not get involved with our business to take down the cult, but we must consider that we don't really know these people also. There is a risk they might do something we will not agree with along the way. I've played a fair amount of Tell Tale Game's Walking Dead to know how these things turn out.

Though, we should still keep in contact in case something happens, like finding out the cult members are near their location of something.

So, unless Ana herself wants to abandon the quest to take down the cult, and just try to survive, lets part ways, and exchange contact info.

I agree, we need to find Logan but we should exchange contact info so that we can assist each other.

We've said, just communicate long range. There's no telling how big the fog has spread by this point. Ask them to call you when they're out of the fog so we can get a rough estimate of how far it spreads.

"I wish you two all the best luck and safe journeys."

Long range communication. Even if we do go with them, the cult will still be going after you, and we don't want them getting into our trouble, especially since they don't want to get involved personally.

Thank them for the offer, but decline and exchange contact info. Probably best not to put them in speed dial though in case the cult steals your, or their phone somehow.

I thought you said we shouldn't summon him up unless we have something worth selling?

Remind me, what is in your bag, maybe we could stand to sell something valuable we don't need anymore?

Ohhhh man, we have an abundance of that. I don't know how Ana, but we've somehow gained an ability to... time travel? No, maybe that's the wrong term. We can see into the past and have some influence on it. But it's like our minds are split. The majority of our sight and attention is on you, but there are other pieces of us who are able to see and know the minds of the cult members. I don't know how we got this. Maybe it's a side effect of having AJ as our eye, we gained the ability to travel through the weaves of fate? This is just my own speculation though.

"Hello there, and it's not actually what I would like it's what my partner here would like to purchase."

Alright so stay on your toes here when it comes to bantering. Firstly anything we offer him he will probably take as an insult. He will probably do this in order to get more out of you so you'll end up over paying him and we'll pay him more than what's actually owed. Just keep your face straight and keep a determined poker face going. If he offers you anything you do the same, anything he offers is an insult and say he is underselling you. The second offer you may show a little more interest in, but still look as if it's not enough. On the third offer is when you can really begin to barter.

I think the only thing we could part with is the knife-bomb/detenator. Keep in mind however sir, it's something we COULD part with not something we WANT to part with.

However on the topic of WCs payment, he's asked for my help with that. And what we've discussed is you not only sell and trade items, but information as well. And I happen to have some of the best knowledge infiltration units, and they've told me certain inner workings of the Cult. Even some of their secrets.

Question first, How did you know the person we are trying to heal is a "her" if we didn't at all mention who the person was in the first place? Just curious.

Anyway, if we give this person the surgery, they probably won't need the depressants if they are fully healed, so we won't need those, at least not yet (we also run the risk of this person overdosing on them, plus they are not even prescribed, and one of the people who this person associates with is a drug addict, might try to steal this person's drugs).

Also, We'll check into the lonely branch website, but not just for this person ;).

Hacksaw to go. We need to do some serious thinking about this hand thing.

>>782237
WOOOAAAAHHHH. Hold up there space cowboy.
If we cut off this hand we lose WC, are we going risk that?

>>782243
Thats why I said to go, so we have time to think about it. if it's for here, he'll cut it off right here, right now.

Uh-huh...

And how will we pay for this hack-job amputation equipment (Pun 100% intended)?

Lets wait until WC gets back to discuss this then. Ana wants to remove the hand, we gotta consider her choices, and how she feels, but we must also speak with WC on how he feels on removing the hand.

How about an Ahlspiess? Basically putting a double edged sword on it. Think that is doable? But I'd like to know the price of these changes before I make any real purchase.

Also Ana, I know you don't want to be a killer, if you don't want to have this done we understand, my hope is we will never have to use this. If possible we will find a peaceful way first.

How about instead we make it similar to how a bayonet works? So we modify it so that the hockey stick it detachable, and we use that when we want to use a nonlethal weapon. Then we also have the ahlspiess head (which if we can get a wider blade that functions well for both slashing and stabbing that would be awesome, this would give it the slashing capabilities of a Swedish Svardstav, along with the stabbing capability of the German Ahlspiess) which can be used like a detachable sword bayonet, and then we can the attach it to the stick to give us more reach.

A few things yeah, your blacksmith here has volunteered to make me a new weapon and the needle of life also caught my eye, but I don't want it for myself.

.... how did you even get that?

Hmm. Alright then, are you familiar with equivalent exchange? Oh what am I saying, of course you are. So what do you say? I have something in my possession that is of equal value, perhaps even slightly more. What say you?

Well then, since you have the detenator to the bomb in my leg, I'll give you a detenator to the knife bomb, and will
Include the knife bomb itself, if anything I'd say your getting the better deal. The question is however, and I find this is more a question for gambling than it is bargaining, is how do we know that really is the detenator to our leg? So since you aren't going tell us for free how about you tell us where you got it from and we'll tell you some information about the cult that we have learned so far?

Huh, you shouldn't have said that because now we have a bit of information for free, no good tradesman would just give away information like that, but it's a moot point. See while that might neutralize her to be certain, there in lies the rub. We don't necessarily want her dead, we made a promise to someone, someone who at this very moment is probably fighting for his life. We promised him we wouldn't kill her. We want her on our side, she already doesn't like Root, I suspect the only reason she stays is for her sister. So if we want her we need to help her sister whose face is in dire need of some help. That's why we wanted the needle of life, to give to her so she can heal her sister. And while you may be able to respect noble intentions, you won't give it up for free.

And as for information on the cult we actually know a few of their secrets, and even their weakness. As for their names, we are slowly learning their names on our own.

As it stands we can tell you about Dr. Lester, A bit about Root, Deliliah, Matilda, and Lorence. But we can easily tell you more as we learn it.

Whose to say that we are even talking about the same Matilda? Wait... did your daughter ever have a very odd incident involving a donkey?

Yep we know of her, and from what we've told you it seems she is in league with Root of Ash's cult. But here's the deal sir. While I truly do want to tell you of your daughter, really I do. We are still bargaining, what would you be willing to give us for information of your daughter? And believe me, we know her quite well now.

But as a sign of goodwill, and due to the love a man can have for his daughter, we will tell you for free, that she is

Alright, so Matilda first. She has been working with the cult as Root's personal maid and Chauffeur. However, it looks like she may try and change her profession, possibly to a lawyer. See, two kids harassed her and ended up playing a cruel prank, that they had planned out in advance with 2 other friends. They ended up breaking her nose. These kids were the children of one of Root's mentors, some general. Well 2 of the kids snuck into the limo that Matilda was driving, one of whom was pretending to be the son of the general. The kids accused Matilda of kidnapping them, and so a trial was held, Lorence and Luvia were the prosecution, and Clara (by the way that's another cult member we can tell you about, along with a little about Rozalia). Matilda was able to slowly dissect the kids plan of how they executed the plan and proved her innocence and beat Lorence and Luvia, had she not she would have been executed. She ended up forgiving Lorence actually even though he effectively tried to kill her. WC you yourself were a key witness in this trial and helped prove her innocence. They sadly wiped your memory of the whole event by injecting this hand with some kind of magical agent the erased your memory of the trial. I imagine you can only get a few snippets here and there. When we left Matilda she was having coffee with Lorence and Bob, her would be executioner. I think she is going to quit being a maid/chauffeur and become an attorney for Root instead.

We pretended to be a psychic cup when we talked with Delilah, strange and weird I know but she was high out of her mind when we met with her so she just kinda rolled with it, ended up trusting us completely actually. Ana, because you don't necessarily see what we see, Delilah is Root's adopted sister, her family took him in when his parents died. She told us a lot of juicy gossip, including but not limited too, and I'm completely serious, how she took Root's, her adopted brother keep in mind, she took his virginity.... I'm not kidding...

Anyway, as for her drug use, she's going cold turkey right now, meaning she doesn't have any access to her stuff except anything she might have saved. Lester did give her some medication to help with that but.... we'll get to him in a minute. Let's just say she rejected the treatment. I suspect she will be getting more and more rebellious until finally she breaks away from her brother just to get a fix. If we can find a way to help her that would be good, but it's not going to be easy. So as it stands for you Jack, don't expect to see her anytime soon unless you can somehow meet covertly. But here is a problem with that, sell anything she needs, except drugs. If she goes off the handle again she will NOT survive and her body is likely to shut down. If you sell her drugs lower the dosage so we can ween her off of it. You can turn a profit if their dead.

Lorence is an interesting fellow. We saw him from the very beginning. He was in prison for an uncertain amount of time, facing charges that he took for his wife who was the real guilty party. He didn't want to to him it was a betrayal of trust. And trust and loyalty have become everything to him. We don't know how long he was in there but it drove him to the brink of insanity. When the Root released him, he wasn't mentally well, he even broke into a woman's home and almost killed her, all because his mind thought it was his wife. She's gone though so no telling where she is. He has a particular penchant for clocks, or rather the destruction of them. The sound of a clock ticking is a real trigger for his PTSD, he either freezes like a deer caught in headlights or flys into a rage.

As I said, trust as loyalty are everything to Lorence, I suspect this is why he doesn't trust curators like yourselves. Especially you WC. During Matilda's trial he argued that you shouldn't even be allowed to speak as you were too untrustworthy. In fact he said no curator could be trusted. WC I think this is because you said your actions got a few of the cult members killed, I think this is why he doesn't trust curators, he judges the whole by the mistakes of one. Case in point, during Matilda's trial he seemed to hate her with a deep passion as he felt she had betrayed the cult, and probably would have continued to hate any and all of Root's maids because of it had she been proven guilty. However after she was proven innocent he noticeably calmed and became much more amicable.

And finally Dr. Lester. Honestly jack, this another who I want to save, and he needs the most immediate attention, because when we last saw him, Delilah had just stabbed him, and stomped on the pills he gave her to make her detox easier. He is currently bleeding out on one of the hospital beds, and I do not know if he is alive or dead st the moment... So if he dies you won't make anymore profit out of him, if he lives, he will probably need more Ash Dust for wounds.

Delilah actually stabbed him because he wouldn't sleep with her. Lester chose instead to remain loyal to Rozalia, his... love? I'm not sure what their relationship is because I think is also dating Matilda... sooo... I don't know what their deal is. Maybe he's part of her harem or something. But regardless, we promised him that we would try our hardest to spare Rozalia, and we intend to keep that.

One last thing, and this concerns all of them, they all probably haven't gotten a good sleep in a long while and I imagine tension and stress are running high. All of them are going to be having nightmares as long as they stay in the cult. The God of Dreams has sworn vengeance for his brother's death at the hands of Root. As Matilda's father, I would advise her to leave as soon as possible.

Well that's all the information I have, now what will you trade to us in exchange for all of this?

>>786220

(Psst, It might have been a bad idea to give out all that info in one go. For bartering, it might have been better if we would have given part of the information, and offer more in order to get discounts, or more stuff out of him

for example, we could tell him part of Matilda's trial, and give him the results of the trial on whether or not she was innocent on the condition he gives us a better deal on an item, or throw in something free)

>>786231
Sounds good. For Matilda, will tell him about the trial, and give him more info like the results if he offers something for free, or discount something.

Delilah, take out juicy info on Delilah taking Root's virginity, and I think the info you gave will be fine, we are still learning more about her as of right now in Street Smarts.

Lorence: withdraw info on his hatred of clocks, as it could be used for him as a exploit. We can offer info on that if he offers discount, or something.

Keep Lester's relationship with Delilah, and Rozalia a secret. Sounds like juicy information.

Once we give info on Matilda's trial results, we can tell him about getting Matilda out of the cult.

The big two things that I need from you are the detenator, and a needle of life.

Also why shouldn't you show us the connection category?

I don't really see ourselves hiring an assassin, rest assured. Maybe a body guard, but not an assassin.

Do you guys do delivery? I'm thinking we could probably send the needle of life to someone if we do get it. Clara might not want to use it though if we try sending it to her. I was thinking we could send it to Lorence, since whether he knows it or not, he owes us one for helping him get out of prison as his inner thoughts, and he is going to be with Clara to study and make sure she can be trustworthy to the cult during an evaluation. Maybe after he evaluates on Clara, he may use the needle of life to heal Clara. We just have to make sure that he tells her it was sent by us, and not withdraw that info when healing her.

That decision isn't final yet though, as I want to hear what the others think of that.

>>786339
I agree, we are trying not to be a killer, I don't see why we would hire one. A bodyguard though... Hey do you have a way that we can maybe get a friend of ours back? He died a while ago but I think there's still a chance to see him, his last words to us were, "I will see you in Valhalla."

>>786339
As for the needle? How could we be so sure she wouldn't want it? And yes we can have Lorence do it if they deliver but I was also hoping to give it to Rozalia if we are able to convince her to help us. This way we can show Rozalia that we want to fix the mistake we made. The detonator won't even be used, hell I'll even give that too her as well. If we tell her that we don't want to hurt her and when we are fucking WELL capable of doing that with the detenator, just maybe we can get her to listen to reason long enough to give her the detenator, the needle, and tell her that Lorence is hurt and maybe dying, we can slowly get her help

>>786343
*Lester is hurt and maybe dying

>>786345
Ah thanks for pointing that out

Really, there are benefits and negatives of giving the needle of life to either Rosalia, or Lorence.

If we try giving it to Rosalia, we'll have to somehow convince her first hand that we did not mean any harm, and to somehow get her to trust us. Even if we use the rose on her to question her faith, we may still have difficulty, as she might still have anger towards us for purposely hurting her sister blind her, making it very difficult for her to listen to reason, and difficult for her trust us if we try to give the needle to her. She may also think the needle of life is a trap to finish Clara off or something. Not to mention, she is very dangerous. The first thing she would want to do is fight and try to kill us, and ignore everything we say, so we run the risk of getting Ana killed. The detonator, and rose might be a good start to get her to at least listen to us, from there, we have to somehow show that we apologize. Keep in mind that we didn't hurt Clara on accident, so it may take more than that to have her forgive us. But if we do somehow get her to forgive us, she might leave the cult, and/or join us in our cause.

Lorence, as I said, owes us for helping him escape prison, and probably saw Clara as a valued member before her injuries, and may want the chance to bring her back. He might be more willing to help us if only for that reason, though, there was that time during the end of Meaningless Ticking where he said he was going to evaluate her to see how loyal she is to the cult. Perhaps after his evaluation he is going to use the needle of life that we might give him to heal up Clara, but we cannot be too sure if that is what his intentions are, as we cannot see into the future. We can only theorize on that. Even if the evaluation is for seeing she is trustworthy enough to heal, it all hinges on whether or not Clara can pass the evaluation. I don't think she did anything to purposely anger Lorence though in the past. Plus, we run the risk of Lorence not telling Clara or Rosalia that it was us who gave him the needle of life to heal her. He is our enemy in the cult, after all. Lorence is also known to hate curators, and might not want anything to do with the delivery, but maybe the shopkeeper can use clocks as an advantage.

What we could do is deliver one needle of life to Lorence with a letter telling him what we, and probably he wants to do with the needle: heal Clara. We should mention that we have saved him out of prison if he needs a reason to cooperate with us if only for this moment. as proof, we can tell him some key events that he did like seeing his wife for the last time, writing a farewell on the wall, asking for 3 wishes to Root, stuff like that. We'll tell him the perfect opportunity to take Clara from Lester to perform this deed which is when Lester, and Clara go outside during a celebration Root will have. There, she will be at her lowest, and will need Lorence's help the most. The only request we have for helping save Clara is that he tells Clara, or Rosalia that we were the ones who sent the needles to get her healed.

If this plan fails, plan b will be trying to offer Rosalia a needle of life if we can get her to cooperate. Sounds good, fellow voices?

>>786384
Sounds doable, I didn't think we were getting all 3 of them. My only request is Lorence knows who the needle come from and why it came to her, because we made a horrible mistake and want to correct it.

>>786387
The best part is if we do give Rozalia the other needle she can use it to heal Lester

... I know. There hasn't been a moment gone by that I haven't thought of it. What I could have done differently, what I want to have done differently. I've thought that maybe it would have been better if I killed Clara, or maybe gone back further and killed Casper. But I couldn't bring myself to do it. It's not in my nature to want to hurt people, we don't want to hurt or kill. But that's the world we are living in. Absolution knew it, and in the end I think he respected it, and I sometimes think he chose his fate so we wouldn't have to. But its something we will have to shoulder forever, that we let our friend, someone who considered us family... We just weren't strong enough to save him, he didn't deserve what happened to him, but neither did Casper, or anyone. But we have someone we can blame. Logan, you have every right to be angry at me, I still haven't forgiven myself for it. We know who is really responsible for this. And I am already making preparations for his downfall. When Root falls, then maybe I can be forgiven for it.

For now Logan, all I can say is how sorry I am for everything that has happened. I know i'm probably one of the last people you want to hear it from, but it's true. I am so sorry, for everything that's happened. And... someone I know want you to know that she loves you very much...

Oookaaay, there we go. Astral projecting as a Vǫrðr is weird, I don't know how Absolution did it so easily . Having legs is so strange.

Hi Ana. May I speak for a moment? I've been watching the moment Logan showed up and I guess I need to step in now. Logan, you should know that demons like Andrew rarely tell the truth, and if they do it's only half truths. For example he tried to bargain with both me and Ana's... other selves? For use of her body and to take AJ from us. With me, he tried to convince me to switch her minds with Root of Ash, as he wanted to have AJ and punish Root for killing Absolution. When he propositioned Ana, he would have taken over her body himself and AJ would also have been his. Both times we needed to threaten him to leave, violence, decit, and cruelty are the only languages he will understand it seems.

Also Logan, I want you to meet Wild Cat here, he is a curator. Now along with AJ, he also provides Ana with special powers. Where as AJ gives her offense, Wild Cat gives her defense, particularly stealth. With his help, and mine they won't find her.

Lastly, you know what Absolution told Ana? He would gladly consider her part of his family. As far as I am concerned she is my sister just as you are my nephew by the bond you and Absolution shared. Ana has my protection as well as WC's. We will not let AJ fall into the cults hands, and I know Ana won't either.

lets take this conversation to a more private area. We'll be right back, shopkeeper.

Yeah, not only does Ana has his, WC, and AJ's protection, she has us astral projections as well guiding her.

And not only that, we astral projections seem to be gaining more power. Recently, we had gained the power to time travel, and act out as these cult member's inner thoughts to learn more about what made them who they are, their strengths, and their weaknesses. Who knows, maybe one day we may act as your inner thoughts and help you, that is, if you want our help.

Listen Logan, I want there to be complete honesty between us, mostly because I want to show you how I can be better ally and partner. If we are to take down the cult we can do this together but we need to just be honest with each other. Remember how I said some of my other selves can time travel? They saw into the near future and right now Root is planning a dinner party for later this evening to celebrate his "defeat" of Absolution. The fucking bastards are just partying it up like it's some great triumph. At the party is Root along with all of his generals and heads of the cult. At this time other selves were talking with Root's sister, Delilah, who is only there to get more drugs from her brother as she is a huge drug addict. The other person we talked with was Dr. Lester, he is the cults doctor and bullied a lot by other cult members, especially Delilah. Lester is helping Clara, the woman whose face as smashed after... after everything that happened. Clara asks to go out to the balcony and Lester Obliges, only to be horrified when she asks he to thrown off the side. Lester saves her but Lorence comes out and demands to see her but Lester blocks her and they begin a heated argument. Lorence actually gets so fed up with everything that he ends up shooting Clara with a dart that knocks her out, there's a lot of infighting in the cult

It's at this time you make your appearance, you materialize into the room. You scare the shit out of everyone, except Root who tries to bargain with you but he gets distracted as Delilah says "fuck this shit" and ditches the party heading out to the balcony to find Lester and Lorence fighting and Clara unconscious. It's here she start to go through withdrawal and collapses. During this time and this opportune distraction, you've kidnapped Root. The rest of the story doesn't have much to do with you, but I'll tell you if you want.

The next time we saw you were holding Root in the air on the old radio tower near the edge of town. But he wasn't afraid of you, he was laughing with nostalgia. It looked as if you were about to start torturing him, but Root had that look of a man about to turn the tide on an enemy.

I can't stop you from doing anything but I did tell you this a kind of knowledge ahead, that's probably why you were able to capture him is with this knowledge you be three steps ahead of him. But I've just got this gut feeling that something will go wrong....

We can tell you more of what we have learned about Root if you want, that way you can go in much more prepared. We know more things... what he is afraid of for example...

>I want there to be complete honesty between us

Why we helped you? multiple reasons, but to name a few: avoid time paradoxes, learn more about who you are, you were a different person back then needing desperate help, and we have the heart to help.

Though we didn't really help you thinking about it now, we only got you in a situation where Delilah almost tossed you down some stairs. Whoops.

He ALWAYS has something up his sleeve, he's expecting you now so that just gives him that much more time to prepare. Take the needle, and if something happens we'll need to regroup somewhere. Just please let's decide on where we need to meet up if it goes wrong, and let's find a way to stay in contact... Please...

You forget that there is a more dangerous threat than Root: Andrew. Even if you do get an advantage on Root, Andrew surly may turn that around. That guy is crazy strong.

I have an idea, I'm going to see if I can work out something so that we can become your inner thoughts while we help Ana. Be right back.

I think it is time we weigh our options

for having AJ be with Logan

Pros:

1. will make a good asset for him, giving him power for him to take down the cult easily

2. Logan is pretty skilled, and the future shows him having the upper hand

Cons:

1. Should Logan fail, Root will take AJ very easily as a reward.

2. While it looks like Logan has the upper hand, all Root did was laugh at his situation. It is believed he might have something dastardly up his sleeve. A man that should not be underestimated at any time.

Having Ana keep AJ

Pros:

1. it will keep AJ safe from harm if Logan were to fail, especially since Ana had AJ for quite a while, she should be better adjusted with her powers as she continues to grow more powerful. Absolution did trust AJ with us before he died, after all.

2. We have the help of multiple people, rather than just one person to protect AJ. Safety in numbers. WC will keep us hidden, Dreamwalker and us astral projections will be her guide.

Cons:

1. When Logan fights the cult, it will be slightly more difficult,.

2. While we are strong as is, there is still room for improvement. As such, we are vulnerable. We have a few people trying to hunt us down as of right now. While WC can keep us hidden, we're still not completely safe. Logan for example was able to find us.

Speaking of which, how did you find us in the first place, Logan? you also seemed to recognize Ana with her mask on as well.

Anyway, if anyone else want to throw in some pros and cons, bring them to the table. I would be all for giving AJ to Logan, but unless he has a backup plan to keep AJ away from the cult should he fail, as of right now my choice is undecided.

If we want to keep AJ safe, it's best that he stays with Ana for now.

But I still think the the last needle should go to Logan. Root is hiding something, and I want Logan to be prepared, he has to have some kind of edge that will be his ace in the hole. What kind of magic did Absolution teach you? Will any of those be significant enough to get you out should it all go jenga?

Jack what can we buy for him with the information you've over heard this whole time?

I suppose that we are? What did you have in mind Jack?

As for the ghosts, Logan, they can decide for themselves whether or not they want to fight. Talk Casper, he's a friend who will help you.

No you won't Lorence Nilton. You aren't going to report Jack and you certainly won't tell us where we are, do you know why? Because you owe us, whether you realize it or not, you owe us and we're going to collect. And since you don't remember this, allow us to refresh your memory...

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

You were in prison. An innocent man, taking the blame for things that were beyond your own control. And the worst part of it all? Your own wife was responsible, and you taking the fall for her own actions...

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

You were put into the darkness, the isolation room, the hole. Nothing but darkness and a broken clock, and not even a rat for company. You were all alone...

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

The sound of that clock was at first nothing. Then it became annoying. Then it became a mad noise. Then it drove you to the brink of insanity...

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

But one thing, kept you from complete madness, a small voice, somewhere in the back of your mind. And there was more than just one voice...

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

They asked you questions, they talked to you, they kept you from the brink of total madness. And when the opportunity for escape arrived? They gave you the will to live, the chance at freedom!

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

WE GAVE YOU THIS LORENCE NILTON! US, WE GAVE YOU THE WILL TO LIVE AND BECOME FREE! WE STOPPED YOU WHEN YOU ALMOST SUCCUMBED TO TRUE MADNESS AND ALMOST KILL AND INNOCENT WOMAN JUSF BECAUSE SHE REMINDED YOU OF YOUR WIFE! YOU OWE US LORENCE.

Now, what say you?

How's the Ahlspiess/Svardstav coming along?

Maybe just the body guards, we don't need assassins. You are awesome, Smithy. Can we test it out? You got any post dummies we can swing at?

No time to test, time is not on our side. but yeah, a body guard or two is fine.

Their all pretty... deranged.

Crimson cinnamon Jimmy, and Fire of Hate, and the ambassador are my top three choices, but there maybe possible trouble here. Jimmy's any means possible could guarantee safety, but the policy of any means necessary could be extreme and work against what we are trying to accomplish, like killing when it is unnecessarily needed. Fire of Hate suggesting you have a Love of fire could mean she may purposely burn you to accept the love of fire. We could give BBB a try, but I have doubts on trusting him. It could be possible we might be interesting enough for him to join us though...

Lets give the Ambassador a call first and get an idea of the kind of person he is. Then, Jimmy or FoH.

Any objections, other voices?

I would have preferred to take some with a sense of honor and duty. I know loyalty would probably cost extra but... Yeah... I don't about all of these guys

Yeah I'm with you in the fact that these people seems pretty pretty... insane. The Handy-j and Jack off dude seem.. I don't know okay? I mean if we can pay them off in porn that would work out alright I guess (excluding pictures of ourselves of course). The wolf pack sounds good but honestly I don't know if they would want to help us. They love what this world has become and since we are trying to change it... yeah you can see the problem here, they might swiftly turn on us. Crimson Jimmy. No. No no no no no no NO. FoH might be interesting but we'd have to be careful not to get cause in the cross fire. Although some extra girl power might be good and hey since we can already cast fireball and create fire from nothing she'd probably love us. As for the Ambassador I think we'd need to cause more of a stir around this place if we want his help, but definitely pick him up before the cult does.

Also blacky? I have one last request from you. They cult knows us by this fish mask. And to be honest I don't think any bodyguard is going to take us very seriously with this on. We kinda made it at the last minute anyway. So maybe it's time we upped our game with this. I've got this design, it's the first mask for our Guild of Shears, I think it matches our goal exactly. And unlike the Cult, we don't forget our mortality...

"We remember our humanity!"

Think you could make this for us?

As a chess piece, The White King. It may sound pretentious and I bet you hear that answer a lot. But the reason why is I'm about to wage a war on the black king. Each of us are the most important piece but simultaneously the weakest for if either of us fall it all falls apart.
As a playing card, the Queen of clubs. The clubs used to represent the peasantry in terms of suit. I am not a spade as I am not royalty, I am not a heart as I am not particularly religious, and I am not diamond because I'm not exactly merchant, I am a club as I am just a regular person trying to do the right thing in a lawless world. And. Queen became I am a womn If you couldn't tell by my voice.
And as for the tarot? That's almost a trick question as no one tarot card can define a person in a reading. At the beginning of everything I was the moon, afraid scared and alone, unsure of who to trust or what to do. My current self I would say is the Seven of Wands as I have finally decided to hold my ground. The result has been The Chariot as war is coming. The future for me is the Wheel of Fortune, as everything is left to chance. The rest of my tarot has not yet come to pass.

Also... The Lovers is a very distinct possibility...

I suppose in war there will always be casualties. And to be completely honest I would rather save a life than end it. I've learned that killing someone will always bring consequences, where as saving someone is more likely to keep you in good graces as well as keeping ones own concious clean. You could argue that if you kill in self defense it is justified but there are still consequences for it, that person may have a lover, or a family member who wants revenge, and the cycle of blood continues. I just try to be good person, only killing when it is absolutely necessary for self defense.
As for Cowboys vs Indians? The correct answer is ninjas.

One because I never played cowboys and Indians, and ninjas are much more fun. But Its also do not agree with those choices. Time and time again it seems I've been stuck having to choose from options that people give me, As if those were the only choices. I say, bollocks to that. I want to be able to chose for myself the correct choice, bring something to this game that people didn't even consider but changes the game entirely, hopefully in my favor.
