I’m wondering if Diplomacy is an echo of Volaire like his house is an echo from before. At least that’s how he started and it’s why the house unnerves him so and why he hates the gods so much

2022-03-06 07:31:44 +0000 UTCMy theory on it all is that Elatra isn't so much a game board as a fortress, designed as a last holdout against the Blight. The gods realise they're losing and in a desperate last ditch effort manage to grab the wrong guy. Considering it's all lost they get out their collective fiddle and start playing...

2022-03-03 13:58:09 +0000 UTCOr the gods invest their power/influence into the creation of the instance in order to settle a competition or bet, and once the agreed upon timeframe has ended they recind their power and the world is wiped again with the deemed winner getting first choice of breakfast on Sundays or whatever the bet was. Possibly with Rob is doing with the locus is actually absorbing/attuning to concentrated point of God power (like tacks holding down a map) and becoming closer and closer to a deity himself while robbing said ether creepers of their power/influence.

2022-03-03 13:52:35 +0000 UTChuh, never occurred to me that the apocalypse might have been the gods... They don't seem to possess nearly enough power to pull that off. But maybe they did back then, and the blight changed that?

2022-03-03 10:05:31 +0000 UTCHow can it be related to SCP without a slug that transforms into your greatest sexual desire?

2022-03-03 10:03:56 +0000 UTCI found that just recently and started to listen to it! Totally adds a huge layer of creepiness to all this to just imagine some of this described in his town or checking off boxes for a certain kind of SCP reality.

2022-03-03 09:15:13 +0000 UTCSooooo, are we ever going to get romantic developement between Rob and Keira again, or will there be no time for that between Plot

2022-03-03 07:15:51 +0000 UTCWhich then brings up the question of the humans. Because if rob thinks moving him was expensive, they seemingly also either created an entire race with a sufficiently detailed history and set of memories that they believed that they had always existed, or transported an entire fleet of humans in from another world. Either that or the worldborder is considerably further away from the edge in the human direction.

2022-03-03 06:23:00 +0000 UTCI'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding but do they think the gods are responsible for blight? I just can't shake the feeling that they're not. Also Keira is taking it A LOT better than I expected
Austin Boone
2022-03-03 05:37:47 +0000 UTCI highly doubt that the "gods" are responsible for the destruction either. They're the survivors who survived by virtue of being powerful - kinda like the Dragon Queens of their time - but somehow became trapped in an eternal prison where the only thing they could do to stop from going insane was to amuse themselves by puppeting the new life that were born. That being said, the sentiment is more or less correct. Whoever did this can only be a "god" of some sort.

2022-03-03 05:31:31 +0000 UTCLove the new chapter. That revaluation about how the planet was cleansed was creepy af. Still loving the SCP undertones. Reminds me of vibes I get when I listen to The Exploring Series on YouTube
Jonathan Crandall
2022-03-03 05:25:50 +0000 UTCMy red herring senses are definitely tingling big time. I'm doubting that it's the gods that pulled Rob over or that they were the cause of the first destruction.
