Chapter 5164: You Seal Nothing! You Bind Nothing! III

As the spreading of his Infiniforce reached its fullest outward expression, something commenced rising within him, and the rising commanded his attention because the rising was not something he had summoned!

Something was emerging from THE Hadean Organ of Civilization!

The Organ flashed and compressed and radiated profoundly within the deepest layers of his foundations, its compression pulling on the full weight of his existence and on the full accumulated authority of his Hadean Pillar of Infinity, and the resulting emission carried a density of Quintessence Infiniforce that eclipsed every prior emission he had generated.

The emission rose upward through his foundations and gathered itself. It was something new. It was something his existence was in the process of producing in response to the particular circumstances of the afternoon!

A system notification bloomed into his perception.

|Your existence has triggered a previously undocumented developmental phenomenon.|

|Designation: THE Quintessential Hadean Civilizational Eon of Development.|

...!

|This developmental phenomenon is unique to your existence and to your framework. It is not present in Vakochev’s Scales, nor in any adjacent framework. It has commenced in response to your refutation of each binding imposed by Sororis Prima Elzyana, with each successful refutation of someone unfathomably grander contributing accumulated momentum toward the developmental threshold.|

|Mechanism: Through the act of denying the weavings of a Gilded One and overcoming every single one of them, your existence has generated a developmental pressure directed against the broader phenomenon Sororis Prima Elzyana represents. Your existence does not merely wish to resist her authority. Your existence wishes to exceed it, to make the bindings she carries obsolete by producing an equivalent authority of your own at a superior tier of expression.|

|Your existence seeks to develop your own Existential Radiation, which your framework will render as Infinite Radiation. You seek to go above and beyond the Paleozoic expression of Existential Radiation by producing a version of it that operates through your Quintessence Infiniforce and through the full spectrum of your actualized Civilizations simultaneously.|

|Your existence seeks Absolute. Your existence seeks Absolute Infinity. The developmental progression toward Absolute Infinity, which had been distant, has found its catalyst in the refutation of Sororis Prima Elzyana’s weavings.|

|THE Quintessential Hadean Civilizational Eon of Development is beginning.|

BOOM!

A multicolored cocoon formed around Noah in response to the notification.

The cocoon did not take an ordinary shape. It spiraled out from his body along the lines of a lemniscate, the infinity symbol stretched into three-dimensional living form, the two looping halves of the symbol wrapping around him in braided interwoven currents of Quintessence Infiniforce and Observable Force that pulsed with the slow patient intensity of a gestation.

The upper loop of the lemniscate rose above his head and coiled back down toward his shoulders. The lower loop descended past his feet and coiled back upward toward his hips. The crossing point of the lemniscate settled at the center of his chest, where his immensity rested, the intersection of the two loops resting directly against the organ that held his anchored Cause.

The cocoon pulsed with a layered brilliance that spread outward from him in rolling waves.

Rivers of Quintessence Infiniforce commenced surging and pulsing outward from the cocoon in every direction, his Infiniforce spreading across THE Wyld with a density that eclipsed every prior display he had produced, the multicolored currents running through the sky and the mountain and the surrounding regions like rivers of living light claiming territory for the developmental phenomenon unfolding within the lemniscate cocoon.

Alongside the Quintessence Infiniforce, rivers of Observable Force poured out from the cocoon with equal intensity, the two forces braiding through each other!

Noah stood at the center of the lemniscate cocoon with his eyes closed and his existence undergoing a developmental phenomenon, and around him the sky of THE Wyld commenced transitioning entirely from the golden wrath of a departed Sororis Prima into the multicolored domain of a being whose refusal to be bound had just catalyzed a new phase of his continuing ascent!

<Sororis Prima Elzyana Report to The Council>

Report submitted by Sororis Prima Elzyana of the Second Sanctum to THE Council of the Magna Sorora, regarding the descent into The Lesser Domains on the occasion of the death of Gerousia Aurelius Maximus of the Superbius House of the Crimson Chalice.

The affair has been addressed with the efficiency one would expect of our people, and I report now so that the Council may update its records accordingly and proceed with whatever additional actions are deemed appropriate within the broader handling of THE Relictus emergence.

A Young Relictus manifested among the lower lifeforms. This in itself is a matter of some note, because appearances of Relictus within the Lands of the Bounded is impossible.

The vile creature carved Aurelius thoroughly, which I note as a mark of either ritualistic intention or improvised cruelty.

Six Gerousia of the Superbius gave chase alongside my own Custos, and additional Sisters and Gilded Ones across multiple Houses have been notified of the trajectory. The pursuit is ongoing as even while young, A Relictus is a Relictus.

The vile creature’s escape was facilitated by his touch on the Source. I anticipate the pursuit will continue across some span of days or weeks before resolution.

The weakness of this Young Relictus, however, is worth highlighting as an opportunity. He is not yet what the grown Relictus have been when they appeared against us. He is still in the early phases of his touch on the Source, and his cultivation around that touch remains incomplete.

This presents what I regard as a rare and exceedingly valuable chance. If we can secure this creature alive rather than collapse him outright, THE Magna Sorora may finally obtain a Relictus specimen for detailed examination, and the knowledge we extract from such an examination would advance our understanding of THE Primordial Source in ways our eons of theoretical work have failed to approach.

I recommend the pursuit parameters be adjusted to prioritize capture over termination where capture becomes feasible. I await the Council’s direction on this point.

As for the lower lifeforms present at the site, and the broader Observable Existence surrounding the site, I have administered standard prophylactic bindings across every reachable population. The Bounded have been compressed back into Fundamental Depth of the First Scale. Their accesses to Infinity and Observable Force and Unobservable Force have been sealed. Their Civilizations have been forced into dormancy.

I will note, for the Council’s interest, that one of the lower lifeforms present at the site produced a small defiant response.

I note this as a minor curiosity rather than a concern, because the voicing was brief and was addressed, but I mention it because the phenomenon of Bounded beings producing audible disagreement against Gilded Ones has increased in frequency by a small but measurable fraction.

The broader principle that has always guided our Sisterhood remains in effect.

All shall know the grace of our domain. All shall rest beneath the shade of the Gilded canopy. All substrates of existence shall eventually be pruned into alignment with the Gilded truth, and the pruning shall continue across whatever eons remain to us until the alignment is total.

Submitted in the service of the Council and the continuation of our eternal arrangement.

Sororis Prima Elzyana, Second Sanctum, Daughter of the Radiant Register.
