No Regrets

From Caelwiki

[16:41] Lkeas: Alright, well... we have this long log from Maxwell where he talked about Truth... I could use some extra eyes to help try to decipher any meaning we can get from it..

[16:41] Lkeas: (( [1] ))

[16:41] Untoros: Oh, Fragments Of A Tapestry. My first appearance... quite embarrasing.

[16:42] Alastor: That's not the point.

[16:42] Kazuma: it's still not decyphered

[16:42] Kazuma: ((drop the not))

[16:42] * Lkeas chuckles. "We all have our embarrassing moments, Untoros."

[16:43] * Ness yawns "I was wrong. At least so it would seem."

[16:43] Ness: I thought Epsilon was competition to The'Galin in one way or another. It never occurred to me that Epsilon was his slave.

[16:43] * Untoros starts fidgiting with the Furby Rimblade gave him...

[16:44] >Ambiance<: There is a sudden metalic clang as if something heavy and metal fell a great distance

[16:44] Untoros: What the-?!

[16:44] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I do hope you enjoyed that

[16:44] Alastor: Falerin, from the other side.

[16:44] * Untoros jumps up, all laziness gone. "Falerin!"

[16:45] Alastor: He cannot hear you, Untoros.

[16:45] Kazuma: Perhaps we can get some answers

[16:45] * Lkeas lifts her head out of the scroll and listens intently, keeping a close eye on Galrick's condition.

[16:45] Untoros: Yes, I know... it was just surprising.

[16:45] Beo: From my prior observations, it would be suggested that you are currently unable to reach or contact "Falerin". I would advise silent observation.

[16:46] Untoros: I'd advise you to do a little silent observation, too. Enphasis on the silent.

[16:46] Kazuma: Shut up and listen!

[16:46] * Beo shrugs

[16:46] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Tirlerion> You....

[16:46] Untoros: Okay, okay...

[16:46] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Tirlerion> You will pay for killing me

[16:46] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Oh I am sure I will

[16:46] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> In one way or the other

[16:46] * Ness perks up

[16:47] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> But I have at least taught you a lesson

[16:47] Ness: Was that Tirlerion I just heard?

[16:47] *** Kazuma is now known as Kaz|Dinner.

[16:47] * Lkeas frowns. "Killing him...?"

[16:47] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> You haven't gotten my place yet. I would not count your chickens before they hatch.

[16:47] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I was not even slightly injured by the paradox.

[16:47] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> But for you... well it was rather disconcerting wasn't it?

[16:47] Ness: Oh ye gods...I despise paradox...

[16:47] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> It was for me the first few times too.

[16:48] * Untoros looks around. "Please make sure you log this entire session, I'm going to miss the next part of it."

[16:48] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I had to reincorporate repeatedly

[16:48] * Lkeas nods to Untoros.

[16:48] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Come back when you have had 20000 years.

[16:48] * Untoros fades away.

[16:48] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Then maybe you will stand even a slight chance

[16:48] *** Untoros is now known as Untoros|thinking_alone.

[16:48] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Oh and don't think I forgot the pain you caused me either

[16:48] *** Untoros|thinking_alone has signed off IRC (Suppressed: ).

[16:48] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I shall return you the favor

[16:49] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> rest assured on that

[16:49] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Tirlerion> If it is open gods war you want Ardendor....

[16:49] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Falerin interupts with a snort

[16:49] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> "It is indeed. I will take nothing less."

[16:49] * Ness shudders

[16:49] Ness: Uhhh

[16:49] Lkeas: Not a god's war... not before we've resolved the conflict with The'Galin...

[16:49] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> "If you plan on unseating a god of the farpoint you will do it the right way..."

[16:49] * Lkeas shivers.

[16:49] Ness: I think it might be about time we leave Caelestia

[16:50] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Tirlerion> "I plan on fully calling for your seat at their next session"

[16:50] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> "You do that..."

[16:50] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> "Now get the hell out of my second home"

[16:50] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Tirlerion vanishes

[16:51] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Are you enjoying your eavesdropping much?

[16:51] * Ness says quietly, almost a whisper "Falerin...can you hear us?"

[16:51] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Naturally

[16:51] * Lkeas reddens slightly. "It was not intentional, trust us.."

[16:51] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> What is Galrick's condition

[16:51] Alastor: Of course.

[16:51] Ness: Unconcious

[16:51] Lkeas: He's still unconscious.

[16:51] Ness: But he's breathing.

[16:51] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Perfect.

[16:51] * Lkeas frowns. "You want him that way?"

[16:52] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Falerin gestures

[16:52] Alastor: Not on the edge of death, as Untoros assumed.

[16:52] Ness: You would prefer him unconcious?

[16:52] *** Galrick-Unconcious has left #darkabode.

[16:52] Alastor: Er...

[16:52] Alastor: He's gone.

[16:52] * Lkeas sighs.

[16:52] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Galrick appears

[16:52] Lkeas: I do wish you could tell us what you're up to, Falerin..

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Wake up puppet of The'Galin

[16:53] *** Dale|Dinner is now known as Dale.

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Galrick groans

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> "Why must you call me that"

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> The truth hurts.

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> We all have regrets

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I do not.

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> You have no regrets?

[16:53] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Not now after...

[16:54] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Are those the Truthseekers talking?

[16:54] Alastor: Live not to regret, but to learn...

[16:54] Ness: Indeed.

[16:54] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Prophetess is that you?

[16:54] Dale: It is us, Galrick.

[16:54] Lkeas: Yes, we can hear you, Galrick..

[16:54] * Lkeas smiles.

[16:54] * Paladin_Of_Souls chuckles. "Truthseekers and then a few..."

[16:54] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Regret is a pointless emotion.

[16:54] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> All experiences are learning ones

[16:55] *** Kaz|Dinner has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).

[16:55] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Ah you...

[16:55] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Are you much enjoying your freedom?

[16:56] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> By my calculations it should well have begun...

[16:56] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Strange... still there....

[16:56] Lkeas: What should have begun?

[16:56] Ness: Falerin...with as much honesty as you can spare, how likely is it that Tirlerion will gain your seat.

[16:56] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> How...

[16:56] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> predicatable.

[16:56] * Paladin_Of_Souls appears leaning against a wall. "Oh...it is something to choose to enjoy. I have not yet chosen how much, however."

[16:57] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Yes well you do be sure to drop me a line and let me know how that turns out.

[16:58] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I cannot speak to the likelihood of Tirlerion taking my seat.

[16:58] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> The event has no precedent.

[16:58] Ness: Are there procedures in place?

[16:58] * Lkeas furrows her brow. "What are you doing that requires Galrick? Another pocket of Creation to move out of LORE?"

[16:58] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I have little if no intention of cooperating with his efforts, nor of being present for his efforts to even gain response.

[16:58] Paladin_Of_Souls: "I may seek to 'sit in' at this next session, myself..."

[16:58] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I trust the other Farpoint deities to delay his impetuosity

[16:58] Alastor: How exactly would he gain control? Over a fight?

[16:59] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I also trust that none of them take kindly to the precedent he is attempting to set.

[16:59] * Ness chuckles

[16:59] Ness: True.

[16:59] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> We were established specifically to prevent hostile takeover of other deities portfolios

[16:59] Ness: Although Mariel could be the wildcard here.

[16:59] Ness: Given the chaos that the precedent would cause.

[16:59] * Ness shrugs

[16:59] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Chaos comes in several flavors

[17:00] Ness: True.

[17:00] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> That flavor I think would be decidely rancid to Mariel's tastes

[17:00] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Remember that by alignment Mariel himself is Lawful Neutral

[17:00] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> He believes that Chaos provides the true order. He does not believe in unfettered randomness.

[17:00] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I need Galrick for nothing

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Our presence on Terra is for Galrick's benefit

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> hardly mine

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Now if you will excuse me

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I do have other things to tend.

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> No regrets at all

[17:01] Lkeas: As you will, LoreMaster.

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> None

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> You are a bad Liar

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I am not Lying.

[17:01] Alastor: ...

[17:01] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Believe however whatever helps you sleep at night.

[17:01] Ness: The God of Evil? Lying? Perish the thought, Galrick.

[17:02] Paladin_Of_Souls: "That would be almost as unforgivable as Mariel dousing the lot of us with water right this instant."

[17:02] * Paladin_Of_Souls chuckles softly to himself in amusement.

[17:02] Alastor: ..

[17:02] * Lkeas frowns at the Paladin.

[17:03] Alastor: As you doused me?

[17:04] Lkeas: Galrick, are you still there? What will you do now?

[17:05] *** Kaz|Dinner has joined #darkabode.

[17:06] * Paladin_Of_Souls gestures to the lot of them. "I shall take my leave, I think...and I may well be seeing you again soon, Falerin. Ta." He vanishes soon after.

[17:06] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> What are you doing on that darned laptop

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> I should never have given you that thing

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Oh.. just relaying a message

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Today is the big day after all

[17:07] * Lkeas chuckles. "No regrets..."

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] * Falerin snickers

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> yes

[17:07] *** Kaz|Dinner is now known as Kazuma.

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Well

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Falerin> Say goodbye Galrick

[17:07] Immertot.Caelestia.net: [#otherside] <Galrick> Goodbye Galrick

[17:07] Lkeas: Big day?

[17:07] >Ambiance<: Silence falls

[17:07] * Alastor chuckles.

[17:09] * Lkeas looks at the other seekers. "We had thought it was 5/5/7..."

[17:10] bule: Hm?

[17:10] Alastor: ...?

[17:10] Lkeas: The "big day." Not May 5th... May 7th...

[17:10] Alastor: Ahh...

[17:11] bule: Thats today.

[17:11] Alastor: Thank you, Captain Obvious.

[17:11] * Lkeas pulls out her scroll with Galrick's blogs inscribed on them.

[17:12] * bule bows. "Why thank you."

[17:12] Lkeas: It passed, and no one noticed...?

[17:12] bule: Hm?

[17:12] Kazuma: today? Today is the 6th

[17:12] Kazuma: ((7th))

[17:13] Mariel: Hmm... 755 backwards is clearly not 577

[17:13] Alastor: Thanks, God of Obvious.

[17:13] Mariel: well... actually... if you use some logic it might be

[17:13] * Kazuma slaps Alastor

[17:13] Lkeas: Right... However a reversal of roles... 5 becoming 7, and vice versa..

[17:13] * Alastor slaps Kazuma back

[17:13] Mariel: And given the truth and lies relationship

[17:14] Mariel: That may be the more sensible reverse

[17:14] Kazuma: You insulted a god, the god of Chaos

[17:14] Alastor: Well said.

[17:14] Lkeas: But what does it mean? What has triggered it? What will happen?

[17:14] Mariel: Still... both days passed without note

[17:14] Alastor: I did.

[17:14] Lkeas: Hmm.

[17:14] Mariel: That more or less might be a point in and of itself

[17:15] Ness: Trinity is dead?

[17:15] Ness: Or something along those lines?

[17:15] Kazuma: Are you implying that we are searching for the wrong thing, perhaps?

[17:16] Mariel: Unless of course the piñata is now the tool of uncreation

[17:16] Alastor: Perhaps...

[17:16] * Lkeas chuckles. "That would be rather unexpected."

[17:16] Mariel: If that is the case then perhaps the fifth was significant

[17:16] * Alastor chuckles.

[17:16] Kazuma: Cinco de Mayo.

[17:17] Mariel: Sometimes a duck is just a duck

[17:17] Mariel: Sometimes a pear is just a pear

[17:17] Mariel: Sometimes a date is just a date

[17:17] Lkeas: So... nothing happened on either day... perhaps we place too much importance on certain things, and not enough on others.

[17:17] Alastor: I like pears...

[17:17] Mariel: Ah... perhaps so prophetess... perhaps so.

[17:17] Kazuma: we keep looking for hidden messages

[17:17] Kazuma: why can't we look at the outside

[17:18] Mariel: Trying to look for a secret chronology would likely be a fairly futile endeavor

[17:18] * Ness laughs "This entire thing has us paranoid."

[17:18] Mariel: Gods are no more capable of keeping a schedule then mortals

[17:18] Mariel: Chaos always gets the better of them

[17:18] Ness: Alright, Mariel, so what is the elephant in the room? What is the glaringly obvious thing that none of us can see?

[17:18] * Mariel chuckles.

[17:18] Kazuma: nice wording

[17:18] Mariel: That would be telling

[17:18] * Mariel vanishes.

[17:19] * Kazuma sighs

[17:19] Ness: Mariel.

[17:19] Kazuma: what's wrong with that?

[17:19] Alastor: ...

[17:19] Ness: Would it not be chaotic to tell us instead of acting like Falerin and making us figure it out?

[17:19] * Ness chuckles

[17:19] Kazuma: We'd scramble for proof

[17:19] Lkeas: I guess it's sort of like when my mother made me look up words in the dictionary instead of just telling me the meaning... you tend to get the point more clearly if you learn it for yourself.

[17:20] Alastor: ( My mom does that >_> )

[17:20] Kazuma: ah, well. When you put it like THAT

[17:20] >Ambiance<: A bunch of small pastry and cookies appear

[17:20] * Ness looks around

[17:20] Kazuma: yum

[17:20] >Ambiance<: A small note is on the table they appear on

[17:20] * Alastor takes a cookie and the note, reading it

[17:21] * bule looks over to the note.

[17:21] Alastor: Hm...?

[17:21] * Lkeas laughs heartily. "Oh man, it's been too long..." She picks up a pastry.

[17:21] * Kazuma scrambles to the note, but is too slow

[17:21] Dale: (( Watch it say "Poison" ))

[17:21] Ness: Nobody eat yet...

[17:21] Ness: Just to be safe.

[17:21] * Alastor takes a bite of the cookie, "Hm?"

[17:21] Ness: Alastor, what's the note say?

[17:21] bule: (( Watch it say 'Eat me' like in Alice in wonderland ))

[17:21] Alastor: Hm...

[17:21] Alastor: "Very Good. Now perhaps the significance of Galricks Latest Changes might be considered"

[17:22] Lkeas: Honestly, you people are entirely too paranoid. The cookies used to be a regular occurrence, back when we bothered to search for clues with more fervency."

[17:22] Ness: Hm. Well, I suppose it could mean that Falerin has done something most would deeply regret.

[17:22] * Lkeas takes a bite of pastry.

[17:22] Alastor: Live not to regret, but only to learn.

[17:23] * bule picks up a cookie and stares at it.

[17:23] Kazuma: I'm fine

[17:23] Ness: What could Falerin have done that is relevant that you would think he would regret?

[17:23] Kazuma: wasn't he on terra before?

[17:24] * Lkeas licks her lips. "These are incredible.."

[17:24] * Kazuma frowns

[17:24] * bule continues to stare at the cookie.

[17:24] * Alastor takes another bite from the cookie and sets down the note

[17:24] *** Revenant has signed off IRC (Connection reset by peer).

[17:24] Kazuma: he...he couldn't have. He..didn't...did he?

[17:24] Ness: Hm?

[17:25] Kazuma: He was on terra before correct?

[17:25] Ness: Yes

[17:25] * bule takes a bite from the cookie.

[17:25] Kazuma: and the last thing we know was that he would inject a hige amount of magic onto that realm

[17:25] Kazuma: ((Huge*))

[17:25] bule: This is good cookie.

[17:25] *** Revenant has joined #darkabode.

[17:25] Ness: Alright...

[17:26] Kazuma: What if something happened to Terra?

[17:26] Ness: Such as?

[17:26] Alastor: ( omg I wuz uncreated. )

[17:26] Alastor: ( curse you fictional happenenings! )

[17:27] Kazuma: such as it's destruction

[17:27] Ness: They're on Terra now.

[17:27] Kazuma: I know...that's why I've dismissed the thought

[17:27] *** Dale has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).

[17:29] * Lkeas munches on the pastry as she stares down at the note. "Well, there is a new blog, and a new song..."

[17:29] bule: Oh?

[17:30] * Lkeas nods.

[17:30] Lkeas: The song is about regret.

[17:30] bule: I see/hear.

[17:30] bule: ((Not sure what to use for a song...))

[17:30] * Lkeas takes out a quill and starts inscribing the lyrics.

[17:30] Lkeas: If only I'd have known

That later on down the road

I’d look back and not like what I see

I’d have changed a lot of things

Startin’ with me

[17:31] Kazuma: wow.

[17:32] Lkeas: But then... it's too late for that now, isn't it? He has to live with his decision, and figure out what he can do.

[17:32] *** Brink has joined #darkabode.

[17:32] bule: ((Whats the blog?))

[17:33] *** Dale has joined #darkabode.

[17:33] Ness: What is it he did, then?

[17:33] Ness: Hm...

[17:33] * Lkeas looks at Ness. "You still haven't made it through the Histories?"

[17:34] Alastor: Nor have I.

[17:34] Ness: Humor me.

[17:34] * Lkeas sighs.

[17:35] Ness: So, what is it he did?

[17:36] Lkeas: Galrick was the one responsible for unleashing the undead upon the Vandarians on Deren. By agreeing to a voice he heard in his head, he wished for revenge upon his enemies and so bound himself as a servant of The'Galin.

[17:36] Ness: That explains Galrick

[17:37] Ness: But what about Falerin?

[17:37] * Brink wakes at the sound of Falerin's name "Someone say something about Falerin?"

[17:38] Alastor: No.

[17:38] * Lkeas shrugs. "Galrick thinks him a liar for having no regrets. I'm sure that as he has been around many many years longer than any of us, there may have been things that we may have felt regret for, but perhaps he does not? Or at least, he attempts to hide it..."

[17:38] Alastor: Nothing at all.

[17:38] Alastor: That's why you heard his name.

[17:39] bule: I do believe Falerin has done things that arent pleasent but from what i could get out of what he said he himself doesnt not feel sorry for his actions.

[17:39] Kazuma: Perhaps it's like that saying. Do your best, have no regrets.
