Predicament II (Neil's Theory)

Share

N: Hey Karl, Myra I have a question for you too.


M: Shoot.

K: Ask away.


N: Do you believe in gods?


M: Barely.

K: In a way yes.


N: What do you believe in Karl?

 

K: I believe there is a god that promises paradise after death.

N: Myra?


M: The only god I can recall are beauty points, kept me from getting snatched up, What about you?


N: all I can say is, I want to believe.


M: Fair enough though a very unusual question, something buggin you?


N: Eh more like this place as a whole, I mean giants?, Guess that's why this place is called Coloss-D15 on my device.

It's peaceful enough though I want to see if there's any that are active.


M and K: Giant's?


N: Have you guy's heard of Mt. Hollow?, a hand Is sticking out the top.


M:I think I read about it somewhere.

K: No.


N: What about Church of the Arch?


M and K: *Both nod their heads*


M: They come off as "Zealots" you feel me?


K: A little bit...


N: Definitely... but that aside, Have you heard of a figure called Fallen?, I've been reading their "Bible" let's say and "Fallen" is the Devil to these people, and There's all these predictions that "oh!, Fallen is going to become one with the entity of the mountain" and "That the Arch will banish his brother one last time" something like that, oddly enough It sounds awfully similar to the most popular religion back in my world...


Worse part There's that arrow next to the hand which just reinforces the belief that the Arch took care of whatever that thing was.


M: Sounds ominous, but I'm just going to say what I think that it's all religious bullshit that these people came up with.


N: Yeah, heard way to many examples of that, thoughts Karl?


K: Kind of far fetched, but who knows maybe it'll come true one day, and maybe they'll be rewarded for their faith, assuming the Arch is real y'know?


N: A nuanced opinion but understandable, you guys wanna theorize on what would happen if that thing woke up?


M: I mean we're having breakfast together so I don't see why not?, I'll go first, It turns out that thing you're talking about it just a tourist trap, I mean hand on a mountain?, maybe you're exaggerating this y'know?


N: We have a device that opens portals to new worlds and apparently giant's are not in the realm of possibility, Just think about your home world for a second...


M: Uh-huh counter point, they were called "Abominations".


N: You mean GIANT!-Abominations.


M: I'm gonna own what I said.


N: smartass... What about you Karl?


K: If it causes the end of the world, either we'll be in Bir-D3, or under.


N: Under?


K: Soil...


N: Point taken...


N: My turn, You guy's remember Coloss-8 campaign?


K: Could that really be considered a question?


M: More like a colossal failure.


N: Yeah... Anyways I have this theory that 8, Fallen and Arch are descendants of whatever is poking out of Mt. Hollow.


M: Annnnnd your source?


N: I said it's a theory...


M: continue...


N: That's one Idea but I'm still trying to figure out what did that thing do before it ended up as a landmark, probably a guardian of some kind, and can it really be awakened?, I also remember reading in that "bible" That the Arch made 9 more figures, whose original names have been lost to time, and the thing that hand is holding is an orb, there are 9 pieces missing from it most of it is still intact though.


K: And you're implying that?


N: Maybe those other 9 figures are parts of the original.


M: Then what about Arch and fallen?


N: Most likely came before


M and K: Huh...


K: I think you might be on to something.


N: hey that's just what I think might have happened, I could be VERY wrong for all I know, now here's what I think would happen if the original figure would come back, With a voice as thunderous and mighty as the one who brought it into this world, everyone will pray for their god but no answer for the mountain is their god's father, and in disparity they'll turn to their devil for safety but to also no avail, this world will truly become godless for a moment until they all appreciate the mountain and it's sons.


But what the mountain embodies I'm not entirely sure could be protection or destruction.


M: A wild theory but I think it adds up, now let me finish my coffee.


K: Nicely put together for a theory, say do you want to go fishing Neil?


N: Where to?


K: I want to kill a big fish


N: after this alright?
