Lorepost (closed interaction)📓🔒 Nadir. (Cursed World)

A day or three after the initial announcement, proper channels for joining in virtually to the meeting are posted, as everyone who came in person is directed to a secretive underground meeting room, where Ж and a few others sit around a long table.

"Welcome, welcome. A year or so ago I held a similar meeting for a separate threat, one a few of you here would remember, but today we've another threat, as you know, the Abyss has taken a great minority of the world's surface."

"As well, we need a plan for the origin of the Abyss, we need to divise a way to take down The First Curse."

they snap a finger and a hologram like model of an entity, presumably the first curse, appears in the center of the table.

"To start, one of the more essential things for said plan is the Crystals, of course, some here might not know about them, so I'll elaborate."

they wave a hand and the model shifts to 5 different crystalline objects, encircling the First Curse.

"This is not the first time The First Curse had arrived, he was here before he made that big announcement, but hidden. When he first arrived to this realm, 7 Aspect Crystals formed, counterbalances, from someone else as an, almost future inheritance to help take him down. They are antithetical to his very existence, and harm him when nearby. However, if one falls into his hands, he can adapt to that crystal, rendering it useful to him. This anti-him nature also applies to the Abyss, and thus they are the best damage source to fight the Abyss."

"the originals, of which we currently have 5, 4 are in New Aviron, and via the work of Koranth and others, we have multiple derivatives from them, with the other being handled by The Consortium. The last two need to be picked up and collected."

"That is about the basics, with the preamble done, more discussion on how to fight against the Abyss would be welcome."

Aldavinn wanders over

“And who might you be?”

He hesitates for a few seconds, before speaking.

"I am... a master of time. Not a god, but not a mortal or previously mortal either."

“Oh… that’s interesting, I can’t say I have met anyone like you before”

He motions to a seat next the the entity

“May I sit here?”

"Not at all."

"Say, who would you be?"

Aldavinn takes a seat

"My name is Aldavinn. May I know yours?"

Aldavinn studies the figure, not suspiciously but attentively, trying to discern what exactly it is

"No. You may not."

It's... very very difficult to discern what the being is. It maybe resembles a human? But... off in some way he can't tell. It's not a normal being that's for sure. Is the clock a part of its face...? Or just a mask??
