YISUN lied once and said they had nine hundred and ninety nine thousand names. This is true, but it is also a barefaced lie. The true name of God is I.
A conquering king must come with violence in his self of selves. He must splay the guts of his enemy with no weapon but his hearstrings. His lips must spit sweet music that pulverizes his enemies, and his eyes must tell a brain-cleaving tale of loveliness. He must quench the sword of his tongue in the love of his enemies.
Oh, it’s nothing more but an easy riddle. What is difference between a simple warlord and the conquering king? Spasms 31:12 holds variation of an answer.
That answer is sinonimous with the essense of Neverending swing of the sword of your will, and is one of the keys to controlling the wheel – or breaking it.
This is the part where Allison is made to behold the same thing that broke Jadis, feel the same ego-shattering sense of insignificance and feel the full, mind-crushing weight of the whole of reality at once . . .
. . . and where Jadis had her entire being effectively destroyed, her former power made entirely useless, Allison will emerge stronger than ever. The Wheel will not break her. She will break the Wheel.
Eventually. There’s gots to be a lot of self-discovery and drama first!

YISUN said, “I told you of this and, believing it, it was so. We are all secret kings of our own tower. In truth, it is whichever you prefer. In truth, there is no plum at all, just as there is no YISUN. A plum has no shape, form, or color at all, in truth, but these are all things I find pleasing about it. A plum has no taste at all for it has no flesh or substance, but I find its sweetness intoxicating. A plum is a thing that does not exist. But it is my favorite fruit.”
Soooo…… Since the background is transparent, can she see the website? Is she reading all the previous pages and realizing that her entire story was just fiction? Is she reading the comments and seeing all the guesses towards her future? Cause that would be a bit of a mindf***. Or am I just over reading the picture?
“…PREE ASHMA then beheld the Universe from its side and in that moment understood the secret name of God and laughed at her stupidity. Her eyes flashed like drops of water in a pan and were gone instantly for she had willingly hungered after what was hers all along. Her beauty was lost and her flesh scoured, the blood pooled around her small white feet and she spoke the secret name of God aloud.
“I”.”

“Let there be no Genesis, for beginnings are false and I am a consummate liar.”

YISUN on the conquering king:
A conquering king must come with violence in his self of selves. He must splay the guts of his enemy with no weapon but his hearstrings. His lips must spit sweet music that pulverizes his enemies, and his eyes must tell a brain-cleaving tale of loveliness. He must quench the sword of his tongue in the love of his enemies.
Spasms 31:12
To restate what Alex said:

Of course, practical applications is much harder.
They should have sent a poet.

Amen!
But also, note the satellite. V-Ger!!! (From the first Star Trek film.)
Have you ever seen 2001? That’s what’s happening.

Here am I, floating in a tin can.
Far above the world.
I do believe it’s far above the moon in the second verse.

Whoa
Fancy meeting you here in this panopticon of all time and space!
It would be a lousy panopticon of all time and space it didn’t include me, after all.
i need MOOOOOOOOOOORE. Also nice picture, James Webb

THE SHAPE OF THE WORLD
The Lie of the Iron Plum:
YISUN said, “I told you of this and, believing it, it was so. We are all secret kings of our own tower. In truth, it is whichever you prefer. In truth, there is no plum at all, just as there is no YISUN. A plum has no shape, form, or color at all, in truth, but these are all things I find pleasing about it. A plum has no taste at all for it has no flesh or substance, but I find its sweetness intoxicating. A plum is a thing that does not exist. But it is my favorite fruit.”
“Yea, yea, the ‘Time Knife’, we’ve all seen it”
It’s escaped containment! Run, run!
The colors are those of the Demiurgs (the colors are those of their KEYS)
I hadn’t noticed that. Good eye.
And, you’ll notice that the one line that breaks the pattern, that cuts across the others, is the color of Allison’s key.
Oh.
Oh my.
Maybe next time don’t mock the omniscient demigod who just saved your life.
Indeed. Most aptly and concisely put, sir.
And so the shape is revealed, ALL-YI-SUN must guard this secret well.
*beholds shape of the universe* wow it’s almost as big as ur mum
Ur mom’s definitely more the Wheel than the I
AESMA YOU LIAR! IT’S NOT EVEN VAGUELY WHEEL SHAPED!
Just turn all of creation 90 degrees and you can see it that way.
Do you not see all these spokes of light, stretching into infinity in every direction?
The milky way looks like a line across the sky when viewed from the right angle.
to those about to be crushed by them, all Wheels are shaped “I.”
AYE, IF ANYTHING IT LOOKS LIKE A SWORD CUT
GLORY TO THE WORD BLADE
PITY TO HE, THE NOTICER OF SWORDS, WHO MUST THUS FAR CONTENT HIMSELF WITH THE RESULT OF HIS FAVORED INSTRUMENT

Royalty is a continuous cutting motion.
It should be noted that Jadis – like all of them – is only the god of one evenly divided apportionment on the multiverse. One spoke, if you will.
If anything, it looks like a cut. It must be Royalty!
My God, it’s full of stars!

“My god, it’s full of stars!”
“Oh my stars, it’s full of gods.” (Ken McLeod)
Wow, shit, that’s something
And here I was worried it would be all dark and featureless.
holy fucking shit abbadon this is the coolest page so far
Jadis: Do you see now?
Alison: I mean, it’s kinda pretty, I guess, but I don’t see the big deal?
Jadis: ?!?!?!?!?!
Like Wheatly not self-destructing from a paradox because he didn’t even notice it was one.
Or perhaps, more aptly, Aesma and her description of the “Wheel”.
Oh my Yisun, it’s full of… everything?
I saw Eternity
Eternity saw I
I did not see Eternity
I saw Myself
I am Eternity.
There was no I.
so when does Vivec make his cameo
and then Deadpool walks in

I am expecting extraplaner Nietzsche to finely show up.
