Something that could be called a hatch opened on one of the Trisolaran ships. It didn't lead anywhere, but it had enough space for a drone. A drone flew into the hatch and docked inside. -- Someone approached Agony, a cloaked, feminine figure. Her pain was great, although dulled by time's passing. @SpiritOfWrath Edited January 26 by NameIess

He tested Rebus' defense, dancing forward slightly and launching a few strikes. same lol I need to research Alright, I'm back. Honestly got more sleep in the last two days than I have in any three of the last two weeks. Rebus stepped smoothly backwards, the first strike falling short. As Cricket got closer, Rebus batted away the next two strikes, then suddenly stepped forwards and swung his sword down from overhead. On 1/21/2026 at 10:50 PM, Sequence said: Ivisyre was lounging in the black throne in this black castle. It hadn’t changed much, but through the stained glass windows along the sides of the chamber, one could see the surface of the world. It was a hellscape, with flowing lava running through massive fissures in the now ashen crystalline mountains. “Hello, Rebus,” Ivisyre said blandly. “I apologize for not meeting you at your desired place, but… I honestly cannot be assed to get out of this chair!” They laughed a high pitched, borderline maniacal laugh. “So! What brings you to my wonderful new domain?” They asked, summoning Inversion. They spun it in their hands idly. “Before you waste any breath, I don’t have the Lost Pages anymore. Malevolence relocated the vault…” They tilted their head. “As I’m sure you’re aware.” "Oh, I am perfectly aware of that. I do like what you've done with the place - the evil volcanoes are a nice touch." On 1/21/2026 at 10:57 PM, NameIess said: Unintelligible looked at Sequence's body in his arms. "I have no vendetta against you, Rebus." He looked up, eyes dark with grief. "Do you truly want to start one?" "That would be acceptable to me." Malevolence sat down, a chair appearing beneath him with barely a hint of electricity. "So, the terms of our contest. Whom shall we ensnare in our schemes?" The can burst in the Sage's face, coating him and the ground beneath his feet in oil and causing him to stumble back, more from shock than any real harm. "You dare assault me, the great Sage Orti-" His rant was interrupted by Lyric, who rammed shoulderfirst into the Sage, knocking him over and clearing the path to the exit. "Come, friend Jack! Escape is nigh!" He ran to the exit, but waited for Jack to follow before exiting. "Yes." Rebus said simply. "I do." - Rebus thought, throwing out utility fog projections of various plotlines. "The fairest option would be the newcomers - preferably before they get a plot going. Lyric and Jack would be a good choice, as perhaps would be the former companions of Sequence, the High Notblades and those they are interacting with, the group seeking Plot Significance, or Eli and Ryna." - Jack followed, jumping clean over the Sage. He did a roll as he landed, springing back to his feet next to Lyric. "That man seems mad. Both kinds of mad." On 1/21/2026 at 11:04 PM, Keke said: Dax nodded in awe. Jack wad having a staring contest with the flosting words. - Eli went to reply but froze. Wrll actually every but rebus did. A dragon flew down and landed on the ground. He was white with green lines moving around his scales. "Let's not do that please big guy?" jackson said. - Evaiya contemplated. "See i know mot the specifics of my assignment. I am merely carrying out The Evergods will. And right know his will is to stop this summoning situation." ah. See the fatal mistake of not being done with your semester already. AHHHHH *GRABS SKETCHBOOK* Rebus tossed the ball to him. The words blinked, and Rebus raised an eyebrow at his Author for causing such a thing. - Rebus grinned - that dragon seemed to match his old aesthetic. "Ah - would you prefer Eli to remain blinded to the realities of this world?" - "The quote-unquote 'summonee' has already stopped the situation, so you needn't be worried. Except because of me, of course." Rebus smiled sweetly. It might be quote-on-quote, actually... I am now, though it took me two days to sleep it off. I'll get around to checking my messages tomorrow... Yeah! Much good Rebus fanart! On 1/23/2026 at 7:20 PM, KaladinsSenseOfHumourSpren said: A group of sophon zipped up towards Rebus. They once again unfolded in six dimensions and assembled into letters. "You're a Narrator. You can make anything happen. You could have everything you ever wanted. Why don't you do so?" Rebus cocked his head. "An ordinary person granted near omnipotence could indeed have anything they want." He smiled, eyes glittering. "But it's all just words. I could be have all the luxury in the world, and it would be just the same to me as being tortured." 6 hours ago, ChipsAHoid said: Ah. Mischief. Mischief is suited to quite a few tasks. By all means. Mischief then appeared, for some reason swinging the leg of a table and hissing This level of inexplicablity was indeed suited to the task. "Good. Now then - there is a man within a cave, formed of vapor. If you search for him, you will find that cave, regardless of where you are. He is the gatekeeper to a smith of great skill, and you may attempt his test if you wish, but he is not the one you want - for around this cave there should be strange happenings. Follow them, and you will find the quarry." The first man is Omen, who is played by NameIess. 2

She activated her Plotblade, The Woven Codex, intent on recording everything she was about to witness.

One of those utility fog walls appeared, the system making an educated guess as to where it should go. - Rebus followed, lifted himself to the deck with utility fog. "How does the ship sail?" he asked, hovering next to Eli. - "Yes, but my goals remain the same - reminding the Authors of my situational ruthlessness. I suspect I could manage said crime syndicate, but if you wish I shall teach you the art of manipulation." He smiled. "The secret to much of my success lies in a situation known as the AI box test. This scenario is a thought experiment, in which a superintelligence is placed within a closed system and allowed only to write text on a screen. This is an attempt to control the superintelligence - an entity trapped within a 'box' cannot take over the world, but can still communicate plans that would improve it. Unfortunately, when simulated in real life - one human, with none of the enhanced capacity a true superintelligence would have, writing text to another who plays the researcher - it is overwhelmingly clear that the simulated AI can talk the researcher into letting it out, even when actual money is at stake." "This is done in two ways. The first is bribery - within the test, anything can be offered by the superintelligence, since it is after all a superintelligence - from incredible technology to simple wisdom. The second is that the simulated researcher only has to agree once - the AI has plenty of time to argue, and merely one moment of weakness is enough to let it out." Rebus grinned, eyes sparkling. "Sound familiar?" 1
