Comments

[prevail]

Nothing whatsoever, simply gone.

If he has indeed perished, I will see him avenged.

[fortitudosalutis]

sure
ai didn't say anything about it?

[prevail]

There has been no mention.

[fortitudosalutis]

guess that's just the status quo now

[prevail]

If it is the norm, I don't find it acceptable.

[fortitudosalutis]

gonna do something about it?

[prevail]

If I were, it would be unwise to say so here.

We have no assurance of privacy.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ Nice to have that confirmed. ]

interesting

[prevail]

Since they provisioned us with this technology, I have wondered.

My realm has no such devices, so I can only speculate.

[fortitudosalutis]

your realm?

[prevail]

I hail from the Sky Realm. My world, in other words.

[fortitudosalutis]

right
im guessing its in the sky

[ God, this is weird. ]

[prevail]

Correct. We don't live on "continents" or one great mass, such as the plants others describe.

Instead, many islands dot the vast sky.

[fortitudosalutis]

huh
Okay

[ Sure. He’ll just roll with that insanity. ]

how’s that work?

[prevail]

Through a balance of elemental energies which allow them to remain buoyant.

Primarchs such as myself are responsible for overseeing that balance. Or they were, until the task was left to me when the others ceded their wings.

[fortitudosalutis]

that make you a scientist or something else?

[prevail]

No, nothing like that.

The word most seem to understand here is archangel.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ There's a long pause. ]

what does that mean to you

[ It's better to do this over text. It hides the anger currently twisting through him. ]

[prevail]

What I am, and my responsibilities.

However, I've found what comes to mind for others here is different. They know the same word, they associate it with winged creatures who have the same names, but little else is the same.

[fortitudosalutis]

you serve god?

[prevail]

The Creator of my realm has been gone for some time. I couldn't speak to his will.

Though two of his Speakers are among the crew I was part of.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ Blasphemy, Carver thinks. He keeps that shit to himself. ]

what does that mean
speaker

[prevail]

Their age well exceeds mine, and they would explain it better, but as they aren't present...

The way I understand it, they knew and communicated the will of the Creator, long ago.
