Long Game 29: A Mote in Adonalsium's Eye

[Elenion]

The Emissary of Mandos picked up Nightblood and laughed. Of course I knew about what I was doing, [random stranger Ecth]. In my study of the events of the Cosmere, the conversation between Jack and Lorna did not go unnoticed. But it is Mandos' will to bring about a restructuring of balance in the Cosmere. First Cuddles, now JOdium. Powerful weapons in the hands of capable wielders. The best is yet to come.

First slunk out of the shadows. His years of tracking experience paid off as he was able to locate the spot where Jack had disappeared fairly quickly. Now, to find something Jack had left behind...

If you're wanting to put powerful weapons in the wrong hands, can i trade cultivation (Without Jodium) for Nightblood again? I'd rather have the sword than the shard of Cultivation. I can store Jodium elsewhere.

[Elenion]

@A Joe in the Bush

I'll have to turn you down on that one. Nightblood actually fits very well in Mandos' overarching plan.

[Alvron]

Nightblood fits your plan but Cuddles didn't?  The Collective is very interested in this plan of yours.

@I_am_a_Stick Any chance of getting you to pass your Odium to me?  I promise to take very good care of it.

[A Joe in the Bush]

@I Am A Stick

Don't do it! I'll trade you Cultivation (Sans Jodium) and the Survivor's Spear for Lodium! (Lopen's Odium)

[Alvron]

I advise you to take Joe's offer.   I'ts highly doubtful you will get better.

[TheMightyLopen]

Hey, I wouldn't mind getting my Odium back. Joe and Alv already have their own version, so I think it's only fair I'd get mine.  Only if you don't want it though Stick.

Actually, mine technically belongs to Alvron too. Alv and I are just waiting on the final member of the agreement to agree? I think? I dunno. I've lost track.

The mind of Mandos is inscrutable to all but his inner circle, and will only be revealed in time. But here, have a Death Rattle:

 

"Victory? The fields are clear and the blades are sated. But they have only added to his ranks."

Hm? How? Also, Joe, I think you mentioned the wrong person  

[A Joe in the Bush]

Lol, Sorry @I Am A Stick didn't realize that @I_am_a_Stick was who I was talking to.

Jodium is part of an ongoing deal involving Alvron and at least 1 other party. The details of the deal on my end have been set. Jodium will pass to Alvron fairly soon, as soon as another party passes a certain being to me. And Then Alvron will perform a certain ritual for them.

[Stick.]

Oh, okay. I was about to ask if anyone wanted Odium anyway :-P So it's either Joe or Lopen, eh? I'd normally consider the FCFS thing, but since Lopen was the original holder, I'll let the mighty RNG decide. 1= Joe     2= Lopen

Spoiler

eh :-P (sorry, Kaloo :[ (Jack's offer was better anyway :-P) )

 

[A Joe in the Bush]

Awesome. Thank you stick.

[TheMightyLopen]

So Unlucky.

[A Joe in the Bush]

You can always trade something for it Lopen. Because I just realized, I now have two Odiums, and no way to stop them from affecting me.

[Alvron]

Joe, want me to take that Odium off your hands?  Free of charge.

Edit:  Also, Stick, I'm a little hurt that I wasn't included in the Raffle. I didn't remove my offer but you chose to ignore it.

[A Joe in the Bush]

Sorry Alv. You'll get Jodium in Due time. But You're not getting Lodium for a long time. I mean, unless you give me something good for it.

Actually. . . Hmm. . . I know just what I want. There was talk, long ago, of you having various profiles of all the information you've gathered about people. I will trade you Lodium, in exchange for a view of mine.

[Alvron]

Which ones?

[A Joe in the Bush]

Which ones? You have multiple? I thought you just had a profile per person? Your over arching view of a player?

To be clear, I am retracting the offer of the trade, pending further information on just what is contained in these profiles. 

[Alvron]

I have one profile per person per game as well as a overarching profile.  I'm also working on separate profiles for evil, village and 'other' stats.  So lets say you've played 20 games, that's 20 individual profiles, 1 overarching profile, 1 village profile, 1 evil profile and 1 other profile for a total of 24.

How many games have you played again?

The correct answer to that Question is Always 'Not Enough.'

Alright then, I will trade you Lodium for a look at my Overarching, my evil, and my village Profile.

Yeah, so not going to happen.  You would need 5 Odiums to get your overarching profile.  At least 5.  And 2 for each of your village/evil/other stats.

You seem to be overestimating the value of an Odium Shard.  So far there are 5 in circulation and there will be more.  All I need to do is wait and I'm very patient.

[TheMightyLopen]

Oooh, profiles. Alv, any chance I could get one of my game profiles as a favor? I did give you Odium during the game after all...  You'd be free to choose(though personally I'd like to see the LG21 profile because I played so differently in that one).

[Alvron]

Sadly the more recent games aren't really readable but I think I can do that Lopen. If I can get it cleaned up and filled in, you should have it by the end of the weekend.
