No. Possessing the Prince is a really good plan. This would disrupt the ritual without a trace, keep the prince alive and give us a privileged position. However, our presence can't be felt. We can't go personally. If we're captured, all is lost. Doubt that there's any other suitable vessels for us, like Kalasha and the prince. Not to mention that Mabón, Ostara and Beltrane are far better suited for this task. The Paired Stones. Let's try them.

except the plan relies on the prince being far away from the ritual, and in a room CONNECTED to the ritual room. which is where i would place any sacrifices. meaning that we would alert everyone to our presence no matter what. also we may be the only ones capable of stopping the ritual. godly power against godly power. simply put, not going ourselves would be putting too much on us being lucky and the enemy being very stupid. and with how they have been acting so far, they aren't stupid. insane maybe, but not stupid.

>>368441
We'll take that your lordship doesn't believe in the abilities of Mabón, Ostara and Beltrane and want to sacrifice them and Kalasha. Unacceptable. Being discovered means torture and death. We have little knowledge on the enemy installations, much less of the ritual. Not enough, there is the possibility that our presence can be felt when out of our temple. This would ruin the mission and is a risk that we can't take. In the case of their god being successfully invoked, we will be the only hope of this world. The prince will is already on our side and we need to create a strong connection with his majesty, like Kalasha did with us. Physical contact is unnecessary, we travel through minds and souls, not bodies.

>>368447
1. that is again assuming they can detect us.
2. if we are discovered how are they gonna catch us? we are a GOD. cast FUCK YOU at them.
3. again, how are we going to get to the prince AT ALL when he is most likely in a cell RIGHT NEXT TO the ritual room.
4. the connection with kalesha was made by not only being our high priest but having a large group of people giving him their energy. a single person praying at a single ball would not be enough to make a blip.

i am saying stopping the ritual would be easier then trying to sneak a glass ball to the prince.

>>368448
Not an option. This would cause civil war. Kalasha doesn't have our powers, just our presence. Were we brought in our totality, destroying the minds of our enemies would be effortless. Doubt that the extension of Dark Priest's powers are sufficient for this task. Concerning the energy, our followers will already be in a frenetic tune prior to the infiltration. Our weapons are distraction, subterfuge and incapacitation. That's why we created this plan and recruited Mabón, Ostara and Beltrane.

>>368450
*FACEPALM*
if possession left a god with little power, then why would the enemy be doing the EXACT SAME THING?

>>368451
Kalasha has no royal blood, no direct connection with the land. This type of connection is beyond his capabilities. Beyond anything documented, in fact. Anyway, remember. Anyone who endanger the lives of our faithful flock will not be forgiven. Any one.

>>368455
Kalasha is a high priest, his entire LIFE is revolves around channeling our power.

>>368457
What a sad fate. Kalasha deserves some vacation.

>>368451

You missed the part about them doing a lengthy ritual to channel the Light God's full might, whereas we were called in haste. In other words, the possession they're working on is NOT equal to our possession, and in fact there're different terminology for both.

"Now, about the Prince..."

"That idea hangs on too many assumptions."

"Feasibility aside, that IS a good plan. "

"What?"

"The Heir prince is certainly the centerpiece of this madness; if our powerful Lords can take him as a vessel before the God of Law, their ritual would be ruined."

"Sir, we have no reason to believe--"

"-- but fabricating a... an artifact for this task would be foolish. If anything, Ostara's bond should prove to be a stronger conduit than anything we could ever manufacture."

"Huh?"

"What?!?! She isn't even a mage! Much less a battery!"

"A pact of blood is one of the strongest bonds. She already made her dedication clear; we are not taking anything she didn't offer."

"... understood. When the need arises. You can count on me, my Lords."

i am sure if you explain that divinely controlled people that never feel sadness or happiness don't drink at all they would be willing to co-operate.

Not only that, but I am pretty sure when we manage to deal with the god of law, weekly tavern nights would be ok to add to our religion. After all, if this goes perfectly, we would have to thank drunken singing to our success. Would be good business in the long term for the bars and taverns.

Besides, alcohol can make people act erratic and in ways people don't expect them to. I'm sure the god of law would be against such a chaotic thing and would try to restrict drinking if he got his claws on this plane.

You know, we should go further with letting them know that we know their plans. If we still have skilled personnel to spare, we should set in motion a second, somewhat more direct plan to disrupt their ritual, because they will know we are up to something.

Nah, we shouldn't do a direct move on them. If we do, it gives them a reason to go after our other followers. Not only that, but it would focus their intent inwards to protect the tower.

With a spread out, non aggressive threat, they NEED to have people keep an eye on them and so long as our followers don't do anything outright hostile, they can't just beat them down and go for the next group. In short,
let them think that our plans don't involve the tower itself while our true plan is carried out.

i think he means have a big counter ritual looking thing nearby, so that they have to try and stop US.

>>368613
Yes, I meant something along those lines. Though it might be useful if our decoy plan can also function as a back up plan.

Hmmmm.. while a ritual would be handy I don't think it will help either. An open ritual would invite too much trouble to our worshipers. It could be considered an outright act against them which means they could retaliate fully since we would be doing it close to them.Even then, they had time to prepare and the home field advantage. In a outright ritual duel, we would most likely lose.

However, that doesn't mean we could use bits of that with our party strategy. Think of the poem I said before. It did two things, defamed the god of law, and make us look good even though they were lightly concealed.

I am not 100% on this, but praising can be considered a form of worship which was used to empower gods and the like. Not only that, but the songs may distract the Law God's worshipers keeping them from doing their all in their ritual. It wouldn't be able to outright clash with it, but we could weaken and delay them bit by bit. The praise to us in the area may even allow us to subtly help them as well.

Perhaps we could use some bards in our flock who are good at making up songs and such. Just keep them subtle on both parts and we should be good.

So fellow Legion and followers, what say you? Think this hybrid idea has merits?

We need more information. Approach the King, but be prepared to abscond. Anyway, there's no more to be said about the infiltration. We have enough men to address each suggestion. Any other change should be made during the mission.

"Righto!"

"I need to stop by my room, I'm going to need my tools..."

"That can also be arranged..."

"To counter their rituals, ours would need to weave the same energies they are manipulating in reverse. And without the knowledge of the rite, motions, scale, materials, purpose..."

"They're going to bring the God of Law to dominate the Prince, isnt that enough?"

"There are way too many ways, young one. While there is little difference between barley or wheat, whether the Heir Prince is a conduit or not is one we cant ignore. Without knowledge we can't guess their methods, and even then--there might not be enough time to set a proper counter up."

"But-- with our Lords here... why exactly did Kalesha call you here, my Lords?"

he called us for guidance. a thousand minds thinking of plans and ideas before you can think of one.

"Those heathens, the believers in the Merciful God's Light are the ones to fear! They wish to bring their God of Law to our lands, and the king allowed it -- ignorant to the true consequences!

Imagine what would be! Its presence, it'd wrap our world of Will! They wish to make it a world of Fate! A world free of suffering, of wants, of choice!

I, Dark Priest Kalash, demand your assistance! The time is dire! Guide us!"

To save the world, of course.

Your curiosity and skepticism are really appreciated, Sagerd. This shows why you were chosen by The Dark Priest.

Kalash called us to save this world. We come to argue between ourselves, mostly. Now we're here because we took a shine to you guys and your brown world. Let's roll. We need to save some asses, including those of your stupid enemies.

To reverse the ritual would mean to summon all our glory and ignominy to this reality. We advice heavily against this. We just need to disrupt the ritual. After that we may get to the bottom of this whole mess. Don't want to sound ominous, and this is really hard with so many convoluted voices, but the "God of Law" may be the least of our problems...

"I'm sure our Lords will know when they'll be ready to be contacted."

And what would you say would be a better use of our talents?

>>369520
>its just, it feels to me, like this is a waste of your talents
You are perceptive.
Exceedingly perceptive indeed.
Yet for all that you see, you do not see enough.
We are Chaos, Will, Freedom. Efficiency, though desirable, is not in our nature.
If you believe your mind open enough to understand such thoughts, consider this: In all existence there is balance, and all reality exists in moderation. Too much, and all becomes as unto fire. Too little, and all things slow into an icy death.

We are the fire, and the freedom, and the power!
If The Legion were ever singular, all would burn before its gaze, and the very concepts of reality would tear asunder in the presence of The Legion. It would only be stopped if we were to exert all of our focus into creating a new reality with laws enforced by our own power, binding ourselves in a final attempt to restore reality, in a bid to survive against the Void.

As you can guess, we don't really want that. If there is no order, Chaos is formless. If there is no Chaos, Order is without meaning.

>>369520
Your naivety is nearly endearing. Do you really think that we're stuck to the same limitations? That us and your reality share the same conception of space and time? For you, every moment is precious. However, your time is nothing but a triviality to us. Anyway, devotion is paid with devotion, and every opinion is carefully estimated. Don't underestimate you and your peers, Sagerd. Never forget, apprentice, every god needs the care and dedication of it's flock.

In fact, it's our turn to summon the help of Kalasha.

>>369520
Blah, blah, blah.
Ignore the purple prose. You can't make us do anything. If we didn't want to be here we'd just ignore you and go do something else.

Anyway, yeah, we're the same lunatics, eating our own foot. Tell us, spectrum of our purple prose, great shameless self-insertion. We're forgetfull as always, so just dish out the deal about those light seekers and their boring and megalomaniac creature of somehow divine persuasion.

So... It is close to winning a fight over a world full of stuff, and our response is that we don't want the world anyway? No wonder it wins if we have an attitude like that.

No you. Only we. We are endless, and so is us.

Freedom is a right of all things. We know not meaning. Merely what is shown.

We are endless, and so is our power. But focus comes from harmony. And our power is shared.

Analysis. Paths. Trajectories. Influences.

There can be no harmony with it. Our nature is to fight it. More so than our nature is to fight ourselves.

We are endless, and so is [b]our power. This is the price.

I know a great therapist of couples. I'll give her paradoxical address later.

Any of us is watching the prince being tortured? Don't be shy. I know that some of us are into that kind of stuff.
Anyway, just show us what we should expect.

then democracy, we must vote. the winning idea is to be supported no matter if you voted for it or not.

Ok, let me get this straight. We are chaos. We are unpredictability incarnate with unlimited power and unlimited personas. Due to our nature, we can never truly agree fully.

IT'S nature is order and law. Perfect circles, perfect rows, all that stuff. Neat tidy and dull as a round stone. Yet you are saying we have not won ONCE. Not a single time?

I can get that we likely let it win more than a few times, but that is NOT chaos! Chaos is BREAKING the odds, SHATTERING rules and SMACKING law in the jaw! Not winning once isn't chaos, it's LAW! We are basically contradicting ourselves!

No way am I letting that happen. If we are chaos, we are going to make 0% into 100%! We'll snatch that bright bastard's victory from it's maw and make it ours! It's order, it's rules, we will SMASH. THEM. TO. BITS.

So, we need your help. We don't need 100% of us on this, but I am pretty sure the other voices are tired of Mr Law's bull! We help each other out, we free that prince, use THEIR ritual against THEM, and make that bastard taste defeat for once! Hell,even if it's only 'delaying the inevitable', I would rather try than do nothing!

It's not submitting to its ways, it's a little thing called emergence.
Besides, chaos acts against its nature all the time. That's part of its nature.

While suffer existential crisis and are too self-centered to understand the absolute lack concepts that fails to define ourselves, there is a world that needs to be saved. Enough. Leave.

oh don't tell me you buy into that binary order/chaos bull. you don't have to chose. we have free will, we can chose to work together, choose harmony and still be us because it is a choice we make of our own free will.

What is this we hear? 'Our nature'? Would we imply that we are some static thing, to be constrained by immovable bounds?
We speak as if acting as we always have and always will is anything less than stability. This perceived dichotomy is in itself a construction of it to keep us contained, to make our 'randomness' little more than the roll of a die to be averaged, predicted, accounted for.

you were just talking about its impossible for you guys to work together on anything, there is at more than a few of us who will not stand by and let you steal this body. if you want to be mortal make your own meat suite.

We claim that we are all men and women, but it is acting to take that away, to make them separate from us.
We say we are the tame and the wild. Were we to stand aside as we always have, there will be no wilderness to be, merely a complicated machine.
We proclaim we are all wants and demands, but what are wants and demands but less than shadows in a world of fate with ourselves locked in a plane of nothingness?
We could try be the mortal all we want, but if we stay with this body and do nothing, we would be not a man but a puppet strung along by it.

not everyone, just everyone within a area. take the map and draw a circle so that one edge goes through the middle of the castle with the tower in the middle and another circle that is just inside it's zone. everything between those two circles. not sure why this other one thinks it needs to be evacuated but it is suspicious.

Well, our trip so far is most on Mabón's credit. And the drunken brawl's. But not his.

Cold feet, Beltrane.

I just doubt we can shadow our way trough ten thousands of people. Its like every shinymen and their families are here.

hello, sorry about that, we had some... difficulties. should be under control for now.
we will help where we can, perhaps channel a spell that makes everyone disinterested in looking at you.

> Its like every shinymen and their families are here.
Therefore, no one will notice three more.

Our Lords. Your voices are welcome to us. What is thy command?

I see they're listening again.

Hmn. Chanelling a confusion trick would work very nicely.

It wouldn't work on me, because, you-know-what. Unless one of you two can cast it...

I see. I'll meet you two downstairs, I'm gone to acquire a few shiny robes.

... this place feels so...

Don't bother. They're doing some heavy perception distortion here, that tower, its... it isn't even that shape.

... we should find where the real tower lies.

Technically, we should find a door. And we should assume everyone here is under the same glamour... fooling their followers selectively sounds a bit too...

You assume this is by design, to awe those here. We should not assume all of them are 'fooled'.

hmm... i think channeling a true sight into one of you would be good. will be able to see the truth and the lie together.
who get's it?
[channel true sight into whoever is decided on]

If my eyes now see what your eyes can see, I'm afraid this is all there is too see.

Mnh?

Our lords tired to clear my sight, but they see the same as before.

That's not a good sign.

Ostara, Beltrane. I bring the gift of disguise.

Finally. This should be enough to blend in, barring magical detection.

We should move. We need... is that the tower?

Maybe we should figure first what we're looking for. Lords?

any way in at all. even prying out a stone and crawling through the gap.

... crawl in?

That wasn't very reassuring.

Not at all.

Don't say that. Our Lords have faith in our abilities to come through.

Then what's the whole point of 'watching over us' eh? Just to see us suffer?

Do you have anything you wanna say, Beltrane?

Yes. Yes I do.

I say they don't care, never did. They've been awfully quiet when we were on our way here, and now they're just pretending to give us guidance.

You can't possibly be serious.

Now you show a lack of loyalty with your lack of faith?

And why not? What have they said -- what have done since we came into this crazy mindscape?? Besides stalling?!

Hey, shut up. Kalasha can't be trippin' that hard.

... what do you mean, Mabón?

I mean, that cant be all. If it is, what chance do we have?

>>379194

Mabón, you are a fool to question our designs. We admire your courage in speaking of your lack of faith before us, but you have not the comprehension we have. We have our plan, and our plan requires patience, and faith. Honestly, do you expect your Lords to work in ways that you can perceive?

This entire situation could easily be handled by the church on it's own power and funding. Yet we come, to offer our guidance and wisdom. Ask yourself, "Why?" We aren't as whimsical as you might believe. We act as we see fit, and you would do well to have some faith that we know what we're doing.

That is how my trust is paid. I wonder for what reason I have fought my own brethren and mustered my best to help your cause.

Beltrane, be aware of your insignificance. We have many worlds at our disposal, but always ran to help those who call for us. Always. Your betrayal was as obvious as your cries for help. That is why I offered a second chance, why I chose to trust you. Now, you who must choose. Help your brothers to escape the clutches of a tyrannical entity or hide in the comfort of your own ignorance?

Mabón, your distrust is commendable. However, we defend freedom, and stupidity is the greatest of all prisons. You do not trust in the ability of your companions, nor in the decision of your leaders, but still risk your life? For the fool and coward I gave the chance of quitting.

This offense is far too great. I should abandon you two, but there are still numerous followers risking their lives to make this mission successful. I am here to save your world, not to meet your miserable insecurities.

Anyway, do not assume that we do not have our own limitations. That is why I need your skills, why I trust in you. I want the map, a clearer picture and a better description. Now. The benefit of the doubt is not something that we have at the moment.

Bhahaha! Harsh, man.

Listen to Him, folks! He said it pretty well.

Oh hey, wait, guys, can we pull a miracle here? That'd be pretty sweet.
