Wielder of Names 5-85
Chapter: 5
“And then was given to him a mighty wheel, all heavy of iron, and rimmed with brass, and inside the wheel was a thing called Truth. And it was said to him ‘Hear, if ye wish to lift the burning wheel, ye must first be broken upon it’. He agreed, for he knew his holy duty, and he was taken before the priests, anointed, and ordained, and broken for seven times seven days. Such screaming has ne’er been heard since that time.
But at the end of that time, they took him off, and they cast his limbs in steaming metal, and even though he never healed, he could lift that wheel, though no man could have hoped to. And inside the wheel was the awful thing called Truth, and he broke a thousand times a thousand sinners on its rim.”
– Song of Maybe
Our lovely lady of the not-so-truly-fair hair,
Has an angel a-coming and good reason to fear,
As from no Thorn Angel ‘Be not afraid’ will you hear.
Sneer
A showstopping motion, but vain hope in the notion,
That a freak’s pure devotion can match the commotion
Of 6 Juggernaut acting ablaze on emotion.
Promotion
O wicked and terrible is the Truth that ye bear,
But I foresee a far greater upset racing near.
O jeer, o jeer, ye horrid visage who mock the queer,
At ephemeral cheer and other things to hold dear,
But the Truth that ye peer is not cold crystal and clear,
And there, and there, and there, from that red furious leer,
will once come a tear.
Sincere
To defend what is real
With my eyes glowing teal
On the ground I would kneel
My fate he would seal
To my head comes the wheel
My blood will congeal

I sincerely hope this culminates in White Chain barging into on Allison and Mottom, only to discover Juggernaut nowhere in sight, but then spotting him, in the distance, holding up a lollipop in one hand and pointing back at White Chain with the other.
Isn’t Mottom going to have something to say about this?
Steven Universe is spoiling me for other content. I just caught myself wondering how Juggernaut’s redemption arc was going to play out.
It’ll involve calling Metatron a petty insult over some kind of teleconference.
Or is he more akin to Japser than Peridot?
I don’t know what I want to see more… To have White Chain put this prickly dick in his place, or to have him try to step to Allison and have her push his shit back in?
READY, SET –
Juggernaut Star’s weapon of choice is somewhat universe-shaped. How curious.
a fitting Philosophical end to have the weight of the spinning universe come crashing through ones mind.
I think people are radically underestimating 6 Juggernaut Star’s capabilities here. Don’t forget, it was him who slew the Conquering King and calls him Enemy. It wouldn’t surprise me if he could rip Mottom to shreds.
Eh. While I agree that 6 is stronger than people give him credit for, the Conquering King isn’t dead. He did manage to follow him into the correct unconquered universe, though, which is impressive.
What happened to the lit up holes in White Chains body?
The holes are dark after the tea cup is crushed in his hand.
Was it just an error in the coloring?
82 White Chain’s flame is flickering and dimming before the glorious heat of 6 Juggernaut.
Gotta love how 6 Juggernaut Star is the living embodiment of a Judas Priest album cover.
Sad how an uppity angel believes they can kill a foolish king, royal twice over.
Think you that the Imperiatrix Queen Nadia Om knows not of your infiltration of her demesne? Methinks, foul and twisted Aeon, that you have more than one contender in this sick game. Nay, if you are half as strong as you claim, dispense then with tomfoolery and wrest both “Glory” and the Key of Kings from the usurper and the heir yourself, if you can.
But I know that you cannot, or t’would already be done. Thus, your threats are impotent.
If the Universe is a Lie, then Truth must be an awful weapon indeed.
There’s quite a harvest of blood between Alice and the angels. Can White Chain hope to win the race without reaping some of it?
It is rarely a good thing when he who was sent as an observer becomes an active participant. These are ill tidings indeed, regardless of 6 Juggernaut Star’s success or failure.
Do not worry Thorny One, I am sure that Mottom will grant you… mercy. Perhaps a small eternity as a hat rack will cool your inner fires.
How do White Chain’s teeth still show through the armor if their entire face was removed? >.>
A great deal of expectations are being thrown around questioning the righteousness of characters and the common path of a narrative like this.
Being merely audience and not author, these voices should fall dead. If you go in with expectations, you will always be disappointed.
Once, while 6 Juggernaut etc was away from his armor body, a passing tea farmer relieved himself into the stone and metal shell. Now, the Thorn Knight says that he likes tea, but I feel that the nuance between the human ideas of “like” and “hate” are lost upon him.
Putting together a list of names. Will soon unveil pointless work.
It is distinctly amusing that, while other Angels claim White Chain to be insufficiently UN-like, Chain remains eminently calm, collected, and melancholy, qualities, essential to UN, which the Thorns fail utterly to possess.
So, they are looking for an older teenaged girl, with blond hair, and a key in her forehead. And, given than White Chain won’t kill her, Juggernaut Star has declared intention to be Plan B.
I suspect that this may somehow go awry.
For Juggernaut Star.
You should make a bonus page at some point with Mottom hosting a tea party for the seven. They are all 12 years old.
Zoss can be the babysitter.
I approve this, ahah
Also I guess it is true what they say. The truth hurts.
Juggernaut Star needs a new hobby. Or a hug . . . from a black hole.
Juggernaut Star needs hugs. That’s why he has all those spikes on his armor.
