BREAKER OF INFINITIES 1-4
Chapter: 1
“Long he watch’d the spring-borns’ mirth,
Watch’d languidly as seeds were sown,
The blossom of destruction’s crop,
Shall be the reaper’s prize alone.”

Wait.Is there anything actually keeping Allison and friends here? This really doesn’t seem like any of their business. Could they just, leave?
Except that if Jaggy wins, he’s going to annihilate the Omniverse, and Allison knows it.
Well there’s no way this book is going to be just one long fight scene plus the wrap up, so they’re probably going to leave anyway.
What *is* Jaggy, anyway?
a big ol’ boy
this is axiomatic
How nice of him! He brought weapons for everybody! He may be a ruthless engine of destruction but he still makes sure that no one goes unarmed.
He’s actually left at least one person unarmed.
One for everyone? I count six swords, one war hammer, and one bow. But other than him there are thirteen present, with a fourteenth on the way, and only two (plus the one on the way) seem to have brought their own. Even if we discount the two who are physically incapable of using weapons and the three who brought their own, Jaggy’s left someone out. Also that bow doesn’t seem to have come with arrows? Incredibly inconsiderate.
He forgot the spoons too. A long one will prove necessary for the supping on death with Mr Red God.
Hmm, one would very much enjoy seeing Solomon David attack Jagganoth with a spoon. If only someone could make that so.
Honestly he’s a terrible host.
Sorry to disagree with you, Jugs, but Gog-Agog is many things, but divided she is not…
Me getting sucked back in to family board games night
Someone is about to get taken out in a single blow. Most likely delivered by Princess.
Oh! Oh! Maybe Himself will want to participate in this shitshow, and will appear… by calling in his favor and possessing Cio.
“A little learning is a dangerous thing ;
Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring :
There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.”
~Alexander Pope
The fact that Jagganoth associates learning with death is both highly appropriate and a worrying insight into his personality. In his eyes, he’s not just ending people. He’s TEACHING. And someone who takes it upon himself as teacher of the multiverse is the last person who should be responsible for it. That sort of morality should serve as indestructible an armor for his mind as the feathers do for his body.
These plunderers of the world, after exhausting the land by their devastations, must ravage the ocean. Motivated by avarice, if their enemy be rich; by ambition, if poor; unsatiated by the East and by the West: they are the only people who behold wealth and indigence with equal avidity. To ravage, to slaughter, to usurp under false titles, they call empire; and where they make a desert, they call it peace.
Solomon David: “I didn’t think you had it in you!”
Doc Jagganoth: “I’m your Huckleberry….. Why, Solomon David! You look like someone just… walked over your grave.”
SD -“Fights not with you, Jagganoth.”
DJ – “Oh I beg to differ, Pree. We started a game we never finished. ‘Play for Keys’ .. remember?”
SD (with dawning horror) “…I was just foolin’ about.”
DJ (with smoldering glee) “…I wasn’t.”
Jagganoth!
All appalling truths revealed,
Jagganoth!
Writhing madness unconcealed,
Jagganoth!
At the verge of chaos yield
To Jagganoth!
JAAAAAG-GAAAAA-NOOOOTH!
Adapted from “Dreams in the Witch House: The Lovecraftian Rock-Opera”. Waited literary years to post it. Probably later in this book there is going to be more sutable occasion, yet anyway.
Seven watch Seven. Perhaps there is insight to be found in this.
Okay Alison. What’s your move?
Solomon: “If I pulled out your nails, would you die?”
Jagganoth: “That would be excruciating.”
Solomon: “You’re a powerful man.”
Jagganoth: “Compared to you, maybe.”
The statu quo is broken, something new and better must rise from this.
Let us thank Jagganoth for this oportunity for betterment.
Yet a toil of unmeasured death, blood, tears, bone, sorrow and pain shall be paid to pave the way towards this unknown hope.
Sorrowful be the heart.
Preeetty sure if you drink deep of death, all you taste is more bitter death.
Dude’s got a point there.
can’t believe jagganoth just buried the demiurges
nice sword flick O_O
I never expected him to be so well-spoken ! It’s actually rather pleasant.
And here I was thinking I’d say, “Well, he seems nice.”
God I love this comic

“The wolf, brave in the face of the deer, shits himself in terror in the presence of the bear. Violence is a wheel; We devour the creatures who devour the fruits of the earth, and in the end, the earth returns the violence to us by swallowing us whole.”
Machinations, 8:13045
The Red God makes his first mistake, all too common with sword-toting fools, which is that he has taken any time at all to blather about himself instead of beginning his idiot’s work. If you’re going to give up on cutting with words you may as well make use of the pointed sticks you’ve wasted your life on.
