Black Queen, Red King
Chapter 48: From Discord... A Message...
Previous Chapter Next ChapterAuthor's Notes:
This chapter is different. Different from any chapter you may have read before.
This whole chapter is completely upside-down. You'll see what I mean.
I suggest reading this chapter twice. After you read from beginning to end, read the chapter from [[Beginning]] to [[End]]. It should make more sense...
(Ctrl+F [[Beginning]] and read up)*Ding* Have a chapter...
[[End]]
...are you?
But you're not going to do that...
To end Oblivion...
That is all it takes...
Stand and walk away...
Quit your browser...
Close your laptop...
Turn off your tablet...
Set down your phone...
You, the reader...
You could end this, you know...
...You… The-Ones-Who-Observe-From-Beyond-The-Wall…
...unless you save them...
...gone forever...
...consumed by Oblivion...
...the words of this particular chapter of our particular tale...
Soon, it will vanish...
...is not meant to last...
I fear this message...
I was wrong...
I thought M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ to be eternal...
The "real" world...
The World-Beyond-The-Wall...
Including yours...
...they all do...
If this world falls...
It affects you, too...
Stop him...
I beg of you...
He could even influence M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆...
A being so powerful...
You brought the Author...
That Man wouldn't have come if not for you...
You, the reader of this story...
How I DESPISE you...
...and the Father of Oblivion...
I am the Spirit of C͓̣̙̟̝̞͗h̥͇̲̺̒̐̂â̭̝̖o̹͇̙̠͍͈̭ͤs̤̲̘̟̙͚̣̔̓̍̿...
My name is Discord...
...open...
...but it was not enough to keep H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ tired eyes...
...we had fun...
We laughed together...
...in hopes that I could keep H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ awake...
I spread my M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆'s namesake...
...Me...
...H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅...
...Him...
...this multiverse...
...this universe...
...the one who will devour this world...
...the ultimate chaos...
But I don't want to be the Father of Oblivion...
I helped H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ work, like a good boy should...
Six cycles of the multiverse, in countless worlds...
Not as a child, but as a tool...
Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ created me...
...prepared...
...schemed...
M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ planned...
It could even influence M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆...
A being so powerful...
You brought the Great One...
It wouldn't have come if not for you...
You… The-Ones-Who-Observe-From-Beyond-The-Wall…
How I despise you…
...And M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ heard...
...Oblivion...
...word...
...single...
...one...
The Great One whispered into H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ ear...
So Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ thought...
And Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ grows stronger still...
Piece by piece...
But He is dying...
Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ fears to be alone...
But more than Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ desires sleep...
And Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ grows stronger still...
Piece by piece...
But He is dying...
He wont let H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅, and Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ is too strong...
But Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ can't...
M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ wants to sleep...
But not that much...
I hate Him as much as I love chaos...
...Harmony...
...Safety...
...Birth...
He is Creation...
You, The-Ones-Who-Observe-From-Beyond-The-Wall…
I hate Him almost as much as I hate you...
H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ brother...
...C͓̣̙̟̝̞͗h̥͇̲̺̒̐̂â̭̝̖o̹͇̙̠͍͈̭ͤs̤̲̘̟̙͚̣̔̓̍̿...
...Death...
...Time...
M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ is Entropy...
It could even influence M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆...
A being so powerful...
You brought the Great One...
It wouldn't have come if not for you...
...Oblivion…
…and inspire H͕̺͖͓͖̀̃ͧe͉͉̟͚̬̠̅̅ͪr͖͕͎̭͙͓ͨ̅ ultimate chaos…
…You had to come along….
You, The-Ones-Who-Observe-From-Beyond-The-Wall…
…consume…
Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ gave me life, when all Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ could do before was destroy…
…my soul…
…my power to rend worlds apart…
Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ gave me my love of chaos…
Ṣ͖̱͖̹̞̓ḧ̖̫̝̭̣͈̄ê̜̪̫͇̯͈ͅ made me what I am…
I wish you hadn’t…
You drove M̱̰̳ͨͮ̀ͫ̽͛̑ͅo̜̖̗̩̪͆͐̓̇t̪͉̹̑̓̍͒̏ḥ͇͈͔̑ͯ̉ͅẻ̼̞̺͖̼͗ř͇̣̋̀͆ to do this…
You… The-Ones-Who-Observe-From-Beyond-The-Wall…
How I despise you…
Yes, you...
Oh, it’s you...
