In the Early Veiled Shore, Moiraine emerged from Noah’s embrace with fluid grace, her form straightening as she reclaimed the imperious majesty that had always been her birthright.
Yet something fundamental had shifted in how she carried herself...no longer the careful deference of a servant!
"Sir," she said, and the word carried a fondness this time, "I will continue forming more Kleos Glyphs of Paradoxical Genesis so you can obtain more shards of that seed. The required complexity and purity seems to be a bit more than a billion since it is a mixture of both paradox and origin..."
The way she said ’Sir’ now...it was different!
It held warmth beneath its formality, affection wrapped in respect, as if the title had become her personal way of expressing something.
Noah’s gaze settled upon her with calm authority, his voice carrying the weight of absolute command.
"You would essentially be sacrificing more than the power of an Honored Existence to obtain all the shards. Do not deplete all your power for it as I will replenish you with the Sacred Mead of Existence. Once you have recovered the cost of a sacrificed Glyph, only then can you proceed to make another one again."
His tone brooked no argument, each word delivered with the certainty.
This was a decree wrapped in care, protection disguised as command!
Moiraine’s smile bloomed with genuine warmth as she responded with a simple, "Mmm," the sound carrying within it acceptance, understanding, and contentment!
Noah turned his attention to the bucket of Sacred Mead of Existence that sat upon the golden sands, its contents still substantial but depleting with each use.
They would need more, and soon, if they were to maintain their unprecedented rate of advancement!
His gaze traveled across the Early Veiled Shore to where Heidrun lounged in the distance, the arrogant goat currently snacking on Auric Vitae Grasses with the casual indulgence of royalty sampling delicacies.
The moment his attention touched upon her, her crystalline head snapped up, instantly straightening to her full, proud height.
Her entire posture screamed defensive innocence, saying...’What? I have been good and eating moderately!’...as if she could deflect his scrutiny through sheer force of imperial bearing.
Noah’s smile deepened with genuine amusement as he pointed toward the bucket of Mead.
Heidrun’s intelligent eyes followed the gesture, understanding blooming instantly in their crystalline depths. She looked down at herself as if performing some internal assessment, and a moment later, a prompt materialized before Noah’s consciousness.
|Heidrun states that she will be ready to produce more Sacred Mead of Existence in approximately 5 hours. If provided with delicacies at the level of Auric Vitae Grasses or higher, this process will accelerate significantly.|
WAA!
Noah nodded at the information, filing it away as his attention shifted to the multiple Sacred Totems that dotted his expanded domain.
Their bells hung silent, waiting, ready to ring out their call to existence itself.
"It is time for the second Land Lifeform," he declared, his voice carrying across the Shore.
As the words left his lips, new prompts began cascading across his consciousness, each one marking another milestone in his impossible progression.
|159 Early Sacred Towers of Osmont have been successfully constructed at the First Stage. Nutrients from the devoured Lifeform will continue to be distributed in efforts to elevate Towers of the First Stage towards the Second Stage.|
|From the collective 159 Towers of Osmont, a total of 79,500,000 has been contributed to your current Complexity and Purity Quotients.|
From nowhere and everywhere, a symphony began to bloom.
Trumpets of pure sound erupted in fanfare, their notes carrying celebration that transcended any music. This was Existence itself acknowledging what was about to occur, reality composing a soundtrack for a moment of fundamental significance!
And it wss glorious!
WU! WU! WUU!
The symphony swelled as all eleven bodies reached the peaks of their respective towers simultaneously. The bells awaited them...each one unique yet harmonious, ready to add their voices to a call that would echo across dimensions.
As one, eleven hands grasped eleven ropes. As one, they pulled.
DING! DONG! DING! DONG!
Bells rang!
Each bell rang with its own unique tone, yet together they created a harmony that made reality weep with its beauty!
The sound waves were visible as ripples of gold and silver and colors that had no names, spreading outward from each tower in expanding circles that merged and multiplied.
|The Sacred Bells of multiple Sacred Totems have been rung simultaneously for the first time. This unprecedented achievement has created a resonance that transcends normal parameters.|
...!
