    The One who was both Man and Fish lamented the loss of the Unbinding Blade - for a debt was owed, and could not now be repaid.

    Still he was pleased to see the return of @Kristmas Kthulhu, who had understood him when he chose on the first day.

    But the returned one had returned changed, and that concerned the one who was both of Fish and Man.
    𝔉𝔬𝔯 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔢𝔞𝔡 𝔬𝔫𝔠𝔢 𝔟𝔯𝔬𝔨𝔢𝔫 𝔥𝔞𝔡 𝔟𝔢𝔢𝔫 𝔴𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔡 𝔞𝔫𝔢𝔴,
    𝔞𝔫𝔡 𝔱𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔤𝔥 𝔥𝔢 𝔯𝔢𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔫𝔢𝔡, 𝔥𝔢 𝔟𝔬𝔯𝔢 𝔫𝔬 𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔢 𝔣𝔞𝔪𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔞𝔯.

    The part of him that was man presumed that Kthulu had been returned without that talent the proximity to the end of things had given him before - born anew, without the powers he had before.
    The part of him that was fish whispered that more than that, there was an uncertainty of allegiance - for if the power was gone, then might allegiance have changed also?

    He did not believe it to be so, but he still watched the returned with caution... just in case.

    Especially as his return came with new faction announced in the whispers of the Whirlpool...
    𝔗𝔥𝔢 ℭ𝔬𝔩𝔩𝔢𝔠𝔱𝔦𝔳𝔢 𝔥𝔞𝔡 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔡 𝔦𝔱𝔰 𝔳𝔢𝔰𝔰𝔢𝔩.
    𝔑𝔬𝔱 𝔞𝔩𝔩 𝔥𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔡 𝔦𝔱, 𝔟𝔲𝔱 𝔞𝔩𝔩 𝔣𝔢𝔩𝔱 𝔦𝔱𝔰 𝔴𝔢𝔦𝔤𝔥𝔱.

    If true, then perhaps there were 3 forces at play here, not two as supposed: the Remnants, the Void, and this Collective.
    Which threat was worse, the Fishman wondered? And what goal might something named as 'the Collective' seek?


    Still, there was a price to pay. Memories to be interred. The price was steep, but the cost was worth the payment.

    Death bad.


    There was time now... a longer pause in the turning of the Whirlpool. A moment of calm, if time passed here at all. But it would be a longer time before another must be given to oblivion, and for that the Fishman was content.

    We need to send !Kristmas Kthulhu back to the wherever he has come from, lest he sacrifice us all to the Whirlpool. Who knows what elaborate deal he made to ensure his return?

    I don't think it's wise to vote out Kristmas Kthulhu. It would be a little obvious for them to come back 'wrong' you know?

    "The best part of that spell is you can't tell anyone about it."

    We probably have status effects in play, and villager roles that can heal them.

    To color text, you gotta manually type in the BBCode for it. For color, that's
    [color=whatever]put text here[/color]
    
    For that red text, the color's name is just plain red. For the green text you sometimes see, the color for that is actually lime. If you forget this, you can always just quote a post with color text and see the raw BBCode they used.

    So, I gotta ask people, because I'm experienced with mafia but inexperienced with phalla games, and I just want to make sure I'm not being very cleverly duped:

    Can townies PM each other, without some role or ability that lets them do so?

    My experience is that in mafia games that unless you're Mafia or a Cult that you can't do this.

    Someone, remaining nameless, has sent me a PM, which I found extremely interesting, but if it's completely normal, then that's less interesting, and also maybe indicates issues with my play and/or lack thereof thus far.

    Yes, Townies can PM. You have to be properly identified (no anonymous messages), and should include the game host in your conversation. You should also not add people to existing conversations or post screenshots, since this form of evidence is counter to the spirit of the game.

    Sometimes a special is trying to reach you, someone might try to manipulate you, maybe they want to sus you out or just discuss suspicions in a less public venue so they don't get so many fingers pointing back at them later.

    Unfortunate, to have been caught travelling through old memories and and then find oneself at the end both a day later and a day earlier than intended. Marked by the process, too.

    As portentous as news of this new Collective is, it feels at this stage news of a new faction is like mere gossip when each days sees the maelstrom of the Void grow and imperil yet more of creation's last fragments.
    With so many seemingly still slow to wake, even at the End of All Things, any opposition to the Void seems welcome for now.

    However with such a flippant dismissal of Silence1186's claim to pull souls back from the Void, just ahead of it's ability to manifest seems worthy of scorn if not a vote.
    That said, worthy or not - !Magell for now. The mark itches.

    Kristmas is not a confirmed village special, not if there's anything in the narration. The thread was wound anew. We can't be 100% sure who really came back, I think.

    With Sir Fab and aioua we were able to figure out something about their affliction, and it seems Sir Fab was cured. I understand you can't talk about your curse but I don't even know where to start. As you know I'm always open to changing my vote.

    Unfortunately, I'm having the opposite experience. I already suspected this whole thing was going to be too social and stressful for me and it looks like I was right to suspect so. I'm still going to play along in this one, of course, but I don't think I'll sign up to the next phalla to be held on these Penny Arcade forums.

    Anyway, voting... Yeah, I still got nothing right now. Except maybe for some extremely petty spite.

    The Fishman considers the options. The signs and the portents. There was much that bothered him.

    The shape of things was still a mystery; too many hints, not enough clues. But there were things that disturbed the weaving, rippling through the fragile social fabric of the community like barracudas in the shallows.



    He didn't like that there were people who were voiceless, their words stolen beyond snippets, at the same that people were claiming to be The Voice.

    He didn't like that there were those claiming to have lost their eyes, at the same time as the voiceless could possibly see a deeper truth of people.

    He didn't like that 'The Resurrection and the Light' didn't sound like it came from the same place as 'Watcher of Echoes' or 'Unbinding Blade' or 'Chronoweaver' or 'Singularity Watcher'.

    And he especially didn't like that the Collective had chosen a 'vessel' the self same night that someone came back from across the void.


    No smoking gun. No firm thesis to hang a hat on. Nothing more that couldn't be circumstantial.
    But the shape of it felt wrong and elusive, like the truth was a fish he was trying to catch with one's hands, and constantly wriggling out of his fingers.


    The Fishman did not know the shape of things. But he was distrustful.

    And he felt the threat of the Collective was real, possibly even more so than the Void.

    It felt like being dismissive of the Collective as mere 'gossip' and saying the real threat was elsewhere seemed like a distraction.
    That, and a throwaway vote on a safe bandwagon, aroused suspicion.


    There comes a time to interrogate the truth not by guess, but by cutting to the core and examining the remains afterward.
    He wanted to know the truth of someone's words and motivations. Where they came from.

    That's unbelievably cool. Your new name is cool guy. Let's have sex.

    I think "The collective" in Zek's role name is just the village, rather than some shadowy faction.
    I think I agree with tastyfish's vote, don't care for that stab on Silence from !Magell.

    I was away for the holiday weekend, sorry all. I'll be catching up and commenting as appropriate today.

    I'll go with !Screampunk .

    ...I don't know how to make it red, or if I need to, though.

    Unfortunately, I'm having the opposite experience. I already suspected this whole thing was going to be too social and stressful for me and it looks like I was right to suspect so. I'm still going to play along in this one, of course, but I don't think I'll sign up to the next phalla to be held on these Penny Arcade forums.

    The most recent two games I was with you in, you had a called shot against the SK, and led an immense village network to systematically destroy the mafia. You're not to be trifled with.

    Thawmus carefully (pffft!) considered the other responses in the dead thread and felt this was the best one for me to convey on this day phase. Thank you!

    (truth be told the rest of the dialogue was too game-oriented to be able to bring over, sorry.)

    who is next

    who is next to laugh

    pick up stones, bash their brain

    are you still afraid?

    no, be merry, in this bacchanal of death and accusation

    we bring forward the joke of our existence into the new world

    we will not be reborn, but our laughter will echo into the new world

    drive those fools to repeat the cycle

    knife and bone

    spell and blood

    laughter and death

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    I thought we were extending the whole weekend to today. Guess not!

    I am just back from vacation, so I'll endeavor to catch up and have The Whirlpool Experience (I've been on mobile!l tonight I guess.

    No no no no no!!!

    This is all wrong!

    These eyes... they cannot see what I need them to see... they cannot see past the veil!

    I have a mouth but a mouth cannot speak to what it cannot see!

    I need the eyes that can see beyond the veil and penetrate to the CoRe. Once I see the truth, my words can shape it, and reveal it! But I cannot speak my truth until I can see!

    !Kristmas Kthulhu" has seen what I cannot and yet he does not speak of it. You know the truth, don't you? And yet you will not speak it, for you fear what it portends!

    There is more to this dying world than you know, I can help us see it, but I need *eyes*!
