What he will become
Metempsychosis
For IndorilJinumon, my friend and Skywind cowriter.
(Thank you to @paraparadigm, @changelingsandothernonsense, @thana-topsy, @polypolymorph, @thequeenofthewinter, and @archangelsunited for your endless support and enthusiasm for my weird little projects.)
This is part weird god voice, part spoken word poem, part short story in Vivec's perspective. 1,000 words exactly. :>
Metempsychosis
I have seen the ways in which you are knit into the fabric of this place, and the ways in which it will unravel. One thread, a sparkling filament – the soul, you say, or something imagined. A tether. A chain. You ask, prostrate at my feet, for so many things. And what of it? When one is but a sliver of another’s dream – and nothing more – what could it want for? The cost of love is one’s whole heart. Mine. Yours. The Mountain’s. To let it break in the absence of fractures, or the weight of knowing. You ask for peace. I give you lies. What else can I provide that will ease a truth, a certainty, that vast expanse of nothing? It is no small mercy. And it is. And will always be.

Every year, the Tribunal has to make the journey to Red Mountain to perform a ritual to recharge their powers batteries.
[image: A digital painting of Almalexia, Vivec, and Sotha Sil sat with their backs to the Heart of Lorkhan, looking variously annoyed, bored, and worried. On the heart itself are four visible plug sockets, three of which are plugged in with charging cables, leading to Sunder and Keening.]

“[He wrote:]
The last time I heard his voice, showing the slightest sign of impatience, I learned to control myself and submit to the will of others. Afterwards, I dared to take on the sacred fire and realized there was no equilibrium with the ET'ADA. They were liars, lost roots, and the most I can do is to be an interpreter into the rational. Even that fails the needs of the people. I sit on the mercy seat and pass judgment, the waking state, and the phase aspect of the innate urge. Only here can I doubt, in this book, written in water, broadened to include evil.
[Then Vivec threw his ink on this passage to cover it up (for the lay reader) and wrote instead:]
Find me in the blackened paper, unarmored, in final scenery. Truth is like my husband: instructed to smash, filled with procedure and noise, hammering, weighty, heaviness made schematic, lessons learned only by a mace. Let those that hear me then be buffeted, and let some die in the ash from the striking. Let those that find him find him murdered by illumination, pummeled like a traitorous house, because, if an hour is golden, then immortal I am a secret code. I am the partaker of the Doom Drum, chosen of all those that dwell in the middle world to wear this crown, which reverberates with truth, and I am the mangling messiah. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.”
Also here are some in progress pics incase anyone was curious:
I had A LOT of fun with this. My bathroom is covered in paint now- a worthy sacrifice I think.
