[Through The Living Ash he/him]

Her focus now turned outwards, Anibelmeth noticed something she had not previously. Grace was meddling with the others. However, it seemed to be benevolent, although Anibelmeth could not be certain. She saw Whimsy leave Roshar and was relieved. That could give her the opening she had been looking for. She simply had to allow most of the Shards to settle first, so she would not be targeted. But... what was Virtuosity doing? Anibelmeth watched as Virtuosity mangled and altered its star and grew enraged. Could it not see how it was harming its system? Did it not care? No, the other Shards were all selfish, thinking only of themselves and not the greater cosmere. While she fumed, the power urged her to go to Virtuosity's system and aid it, stopping the Shard. So strong was this desire that she almost cast her plans aside and followed it, but another voice spoke to her. It was like a different, smaller piece of the power that made up the Shard of Mercy. This smaller portion was complacent. It called for Anibelmeth to leave and let be. Immediately realising the brashness and foolishness of her actions, Anibelmeth reeled back in the power. 

And she was scared. Petrified, even. The power, seeing what she also saw, had fueled her emotions to the extent where she had nearly ruined everything. She had known the potential for it to disagree with her and was able to control it, but had never considered the danger that might come from it agreeing. And she herself had been guiding the power to side with her so as to be able to better steer its intentions, but now she saw that was as good as allowing it to control her. She would no longer be Anibelmeth but truly and fully the Goddess of Mercy. And that would come with only one view, one perspective on the world. Anibelmeth had said many times that no one is perfect, and she was not an exception. She needed her perspectives challenged, for she was an imperfect god and could be wrong as easily as any other being. And so she was glad for the divide in the Shard, for though the other part was certainly wrong in its views, it had stopped her from being blinded. 

Anibelmeth reflected on what she just thought. She was an imperfect god. This was what she was working to destroy, for no imperfect being deserved to be in charge of the lives of people. For the first time, she regretted killing Adonalsium. While no gods would be ideal, they were a perfectly balanced god, much better than what was now come. And she saw now that she was so likely to fail in her endeavor. Adonalsium was a perfectly balanced god... they knew ultimate good. It brought her hope to know that, because of Adonalsium's existence, the cosmere must end up at a complete state of rightness. They had allowed themself to be shattered... perhaps it was the plan, all along, for her to complete this action after their passing. Anibelmeth laughed to herself at the ludicrous thought, partly because it warmed her, but partly to cover her fear and insecurity. Fear of death, of failure, of her own ideals being wrong. 

And for the first time since forming the ideals in her head, Anibelmeth allowed herself to question them. Was she wrong? Anibelmeth thought not, but of course she was sure of her own opinion. She needed an outside perspective, one that would challenge her. It could not be a Shard, nor any of the people of her system. And so, stretching out her consciousness, she found one that might suit her needs.

Anibelmeth formed a body, that of herself pre-shardhood, behind Encephelous in the Cognitive Realm. Obscuring the area from the sight of the other Shards, she approached him.

Hee, making Mercy go through a moral crisis was fun.

The others. The dragon says with bile in her voice. One already came and tried to destroy the system out of pure spite. I fear I will not be able to protect my pets alone if one with more commitment comes.

Scadrial is a thing. At this rate Ruin/Devotion will most likely settle Nalthis or something.

What lifeforms are you creating on Scadrial?

 

[Through the Living Hopper He/Him]

Valor shifted his consciousness away from his planet. He would finish his creation later.

For now, he sensed a… disquiet. There!

Virtuosity, locked in its creation, was Investing a star? 

That can't be! Even I realize that would make it go supern… 

Oh.

Valor felt the dangers. This couldn't happen! It could destroy the cosmere!

He moved toward her star, then surrounded her with his swirling, blue-grey cloud of power.

His voice boomed out, louder than he expected. He hadn't talked in this form yet.

"STOP."

"WHAT YOU DO HERE IS UNACCEPTABLE. YOU WILL KILL US ALL. I AM VALOR, BRAVERY IN BATTLE. I FEAR NOT A BARTLE BETWEEN US, ONLY THE POSSIBLE REPERCUSSIONS. IF YOU PERSIST IN THIS COURSE, I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO END IT."
