Act 1: Scene 3

The oldest woman enters the room from stage left, hesitantly, and takes her seat on the chair closest to her, stage left.

THE VOICE: Now, 30, what do you say to the allegations? Would you say that your downfall from fame was all your own fault? I mean, you got involved in terrible, terrible things. Drugs amongst them. The media follows you like a moth to a flame. You’ve lost everything. Poor, poor dear.

30, wearily: I know that. I know my life and my fame isn’t what it used to be. We don’t need to keep talking about it. I know you’ve already asked the other two for their testimony. You don’t need mine.

THE VOICE: Yes, their testimony was necessary, perhaps a bit subpar in 17’s case, but yours will be just as necessary.

30: Necessary? What is my word needed for? The public has already seen what I have to give. I’ve given it all and lost it all. I don’t have anything else left to tell. I just want to be left alone.

THE VOICE: Perhaps… but what if you had the chance to tell your side, to show the people that it was them who drove you toward your demise! You have a chance to change things dear, and if nothing else, I’m sure many would be at least entertained by your story.

30, angered: Entertained! Entertained? I have lost my marriage, my sons, my right to manage my own life! How could anyone find joy in that?

THE VOICE: I never said joy, dear. Entertainment can just the same be derived from a true crime show as a comedy movie. And the entertainment found from your life can teach others the dangers of your path, and how few and far between the trait of true empathy has become. Your story is one of tragedy, of how the boring and mundane see the downfall of their favorite celebrities, and it breathes life into their little dried, desiccated lives. 

30: I guess that does make sense.

THE VOICE: And your testimony wouldn’t hurt anyone. The only one to hear you is me, and perhaps speaking about your life will bring you light to your… issues. Consider me a type of … therapist. 

30, snappishly: Issues indeed. I guess it really wouldn’t hurt. She takes a deep breath. I just feel failed by my fans. I’ve done nearly everything to be appreciated, and at some point, I couldn’t keep up. The paparazzi kept following me and following me. There were so many pictures of me doing things I shouldn’t have that I just lost it. I did drugs, and I got married, twice, and they failed, twice. I had children, and I failed them too. Then I got put into the conservatorship, and I lost my ability to choose what to do with my life, with my money.

THE VOICE: Keep going.

30: I guess I was just expecting for everyone to try and be helpful, to want to see me get better. Everybody talks about how humans are supposed to be, at their core, kind, but it seems that kindness has elapsed my situation. I got dragged through the mud, and I feel like that’s only made it worse. Honestly, it feels like everyone only really started showing up when everything started piling up. And people started to get really involved online with the hate, even more than the people who supported me. Like they… She realized something. found joy in my downfall. Interesting.

THE VOICE: It seems that you finally see my point. These fans that you did everything for, weren’t there for you, in the end. They were there-

30, continuing the statement: To live through me. I wasn’t really there to entertain them through music, their entertainment was found through the publication of my life. Through seeing how low I could go. 

She looks directly at the audience, staring for a few seconds.

The curtain falls.

Act 1: Scene 2

The woman of middling age walks in from stage left and takes her seat in the middle chair.

THE VOICE: Hello 27.

27, slowly: Hello?

THE VOICE: Are you ready, 27?

27: Ready… for what? Are you planning on asking me the same questions that you asked 17? 

THE VOICE: Perhaps. It depends on what you have to offer me. Which, I suppose, is likely much more interesting and of greater magnitude than what she gave me, dear.

27, reluctant: I guess so. What is the purpose of me being here anyways? You’ve probably seen my life, just like everyone else. What else do I have to testify if you’ve seen it all?

THE VOICE: Well, you haven’t really had a chance to say anything have you? It’s all been by word of mouth, or rather by vision of pictures. Many, many pictures. 27 appears ashamed. I was just thinking that perhaps you would like a chance to defend yourself for once. To prove that it wasn’t just your own influence, changing your own life, spinning out of control as I’m sure many would describe.

27: I suppose so. Most of these things that have happened are really my own fault though. No one person made me like this. It just seems like these days, this is what all stars turn into.

THE VOICE: I guess so, but what happened? It seems like nobody saw it coming. You were young, successful, the epitome of a starlet. Everybody wanted to be you.

27: Yeah, but look at me now. Everybody’s seen my downfall. I’ve gotten addicted, and couldn’t kick it, and I’m losing a custody battle for my sons. The court wants me to pay 20,000 dollars per month for each of my kids for child support, and as much as I want to make sure my boys get everything they need, will all that money really be going to them?

[note: 20k per kid is 40k per month, in total it’s 480k per year. Yeesh] 

THE VOICE: I see.

27: I even made the stupid decision to shave my head, in the heat of the moment with everything, and now I look even guiltier. So many pictures were taken of me that day, and they were published everywhere, on probably my lowest day ever. Everybody’s hounding me, and I just really want a break.  

THE VOICE: Would you say that it was your own fault all these things happened?

27, looking down at hands: Well, the pictures definitely weren’t something I planned to happen, but I feel like the drugs were something I could have prevented by trying to be kinder to myself, and the atmosphere didn’t really help. Anybody who’s anybody does drugs to keep themselves… entertained? If that’s the right word. It was just hard to stop taking them when everyone around me was taking them too. But I wish people had just left me alone. Everything about me is already mass broadcasted, and I just… I just need a break from all of it. The people consuming all this media about me aren’t really making things worse, just tiring me out about everything. 

THE VOICE: Interesting. Well, we’ll see if your opinion on how far the public has participated in your downfall changes at all. 27 looks up. Goodbye, 27.

27, nods her head: Goodbye. She heads through the same door that 17 left through, and before she goes through the door, she looks back up at the ceiling, perhaps in curiosity, and then disappears.

Overture [content]

A long table sits in the middle of a dimly lit room with bare walls. The floor is grey concrete, as are the walls, and the only source of light comes from a single pendant light hanging directly above the table. The door is quite ordinary, and there are no windows. The room is devoid of any information regarding location, or anything that could signal time. It is the very picture of a blank slate, with exception to the three chairs that sit at the table, facing the audience. 

From stage left to stage right, one chair is carved delicately, designed charmingly, and has no blemishes to the naked eye. It has gorgeous designs, perhaps hand painted and carved on, with love. The next to the right has still been carved with the same level of thought, but the designs have begun to fade with use, and it appears as though one of the chair legs are shorter than the others, but only enough to prove a nuisance. The final chair to the right is in an astonishing state of disrepair. It still provides its job, to hold a person, but the designs are so faded and chipped that at first glance, it seems to be marred with scars replicating a human’s. It is important to state that all these chairs contain similarities, and that perhaps, long ago, they were all part of one set.

The light flickers just a bit brighter, and the door opens, with three ladies walking in from upstage right, taking what seems to be their predetermined seats. They are all blonde and of average height, but of different ages. When they reach their seats, they all smile to greet each other silently. The one to take her seat at the newest looking chair is the youngest, with no wrinkles on her skin, and a youthful glow. In the middle chair, sits the lady that is neither young nor old, perhaps closer to young, but her skin has lost its glow, and her smile does not quite reach her eyes. The oldest woman sits in the chair that is most in disrepair, the rightmost. She has smile lines, and yet her eyes are dull, a tell of experiencing a life many would not have the gall to withstand. 

The ladies begin chatting amongst themselves, although the conversation appears to be led mostly by the youngest, with the middle and eldest listening to her, nodding along, placated by the mystery of youth and innocence. Music, reminiscent of some mainstream pop plays faintly in the background, and the lights dim slowly, and the music fades.

Silence.

The curtain closes, and then opens, with only the youngest in the leftmost chair. She looks around and appears shocked that she is the only one left.

Act 1: Scene 1

A voice speaks out, loud and clear, disembodied: feminine indeed, bold as well.

The Voice: Hello, dear. It is nice to finally meet you.

17, confused and mildly fearful: Who is that??? 

The Voice: It is not important who I am, but who you were, are, and will be. Many say that you have been dealt a terrible card in life, but others say you abuse your spotlight, and that you are the same as all the rest. What say you?

17: Oh, I don’t really know what you mean…

THE VOICE: You really don’t know? You need to defend yourself from the… allegations.

17: What allegations???? 

THE VOICE: Very well then, you will eventually find out.

 Pause, the rustling of pages in the background.

THE VOICE: 17! Care to explain your claim to fame? Your rise to stardom! YOUR GREAT------ cutoff

Silence, then vague background noises, and perhaps a bit of shuffling from wherever THE VOICE is broadcasting themself from

17 looks around confused and alarmed until THE VOICE speaks again a few seconds later. THE VOICE: Deepest apologies, 17, would you mind sharing your negative experiences with fame? Or just really any experience?

17: Oh, I guess so. I’ve really enjoyed being in the spotlight, and my fans have been really supportive so far. Cue awkward silence.

THE VOICE, expectantly: Nothing else? 17 shakes her head No anecdotes on how your fans have been possessive, overbearing, or even the least bit too judgmental? 17 opens and then closes her mouth just as quick. Are you sure? Is there no moment in which you have had to defend yourself against your fans for something that is really quite… innocent? I need a bit of anything to go off of.

17: Well, yeah, there is, but what do you mean you need something?

THE VOICE, pauses for a few seconds: It is for but my own purpose, nothing you need to be concerned about…

17: Okay… skeptically Well, there was this one time when I did a music video. Actually, it was kind of recently. I was wearing a school uniform, and I just made it a little more teenager-y, you know. A bit more modernized, that’s all. Raising her voice slightly. And people online got really annoyed about how I wore it. I was just trying to be trendy and relate to kids my age. I was just tying up my shirt to dance, and I’m really used to it, considering that it would be stupid for someone to attend a dance class without wearing a shorter shirt, or less clothing. They said I was deliberately playing up my innocence, but I’m a teenager!

THE VOICE: I see… So, would you say that the general public response was trying to, how would the youth say it, drag you down?

17: Yes? Maybe? I don’t really know.

THE VOICE: Interesting. So, it does seem that these people, as you would say, tried to drag you through the mud, and perhaps, seemed to derive joy, or at least entertainment from attacking you?

17: I wouldn’t exactly say they were attacking me, it just felt annoying that they wouldn’t get my point. And I’m not sure about joy, but it did feel like maybe they came from a place of concern? I’m not really sure.

THE VOICE: Ah, I see… Well, then, you may leave 17.

17: Oh um, thank you for having me, I guess. Which direction do I go to leave? Door previously unseen at stage right is revealed. Oh, I see. Thank you, again. She walks to the door, slowly, and cautiously. Before she leaves, she looks back behind her and then hurries through the door.

Overture [essay]

According to Cameron J Sabet, “Celebrities are not human in the world of popular culture. They are cultural deities,” (Sabet), and with further investigation, it seems this is true. Celebrities influence culture reflecting the methods of the control the Greek Pantheon holds on the human world. The lives of celebrities are constantly publicized via the news, THE VOICE shows, and, some of the most scathing and easily reachable, gossip magazines. The line between public and private is so far blurred that it is considered odd for anyone directly influencing pop culture to shy away from the outside world between jobs and keep their lives out of the way of the tabloids. Perhaps it is for the best that they choose so, as the spotlight seems to be easily corrupting, not only attracting the naïve youth, but also presenting them in a way to society that changes their lives permanently, and not in a way that brings any betterment to their lives.

Britney Spears was one of the most prevalent stars of the 2000s, and it’s safe to say that nobody could predict her downfall. Her music was a mark of its time, hooking itself to an era that many look upon in fondness. She was the quintessential pop queen. But, as it seems, she wasn’t the only star who succumbed to the pressures, and started radically changing their lives, for the worse. It was a growing trend that celebrities would get blinded by the spotlight, and start to derail their lives through substance abuse, another notable example from the same era being Amy Winehouse, an artist who died of alcohol poisoning after a fight with substance abuse in 2011 (Tsioulcas). However, many question if their spiral is truly just an internal problem, a mark of the culture surrounding celebrities, or an issue with the people who follow celebrities and publicize their lives. 

            Britney Spears, in particular, is an example of a child star who crumbled under the intense pressure of not only the public’s opinion of her, but the responsibility of being the breadwinner for her family. According to an article by Karla Rodriguez, child stars tend to suffer under the hands of those closest to them, often weathering greedy parents, who tend to steal away millions “before they were even of age”, and an unstable support system, which increases the likelihood of substance abuse later in life (Rodriguez). Typically, the kind of star that succeeds in their adult life is the one in which their parents do not rely on their success for their livelihood. According to Shauna Springer Ph.D., an interviewee of the same article, “When a legal guardian comes to rely on the money that their child generates, they may be more likely to overlook or conceal struggles like substance abuse, mental health struggles, or eating disorders—for fear that seeking help might negatively impact the income they depend on,” (Rodriguez). In contrast, other child stars with a more protective support system tend to live through their childhood better and avoid more “shady” activity that other child stars may be exposed to, something that Britney Spears did not get to experience (Rodriguez).

            Unfortunately, it seems that as soon as Britney Spears arrived into the spotlight, her light was doomed to flicker out. According to Cameron J Sabet, “The public asked for Britney Spears to be a perfect woman. The masses expected her to represent the competing ideals of virginity and promiscuity throughout her career,” (Sabet) and by holding these impossible expectations upon her, society itself had begun the countdown to her downfall. They celebrated her, “showering her with attention and special treatment,” (Sabet) and she was extremely successful in both music production and performance. However, this favorable treatment stopped the moment that Britney had begun to crack and reveal something else other than exactly what society wanted. Her downfall became exactly what fed the crowd’s desire for drama, with tabloids that began violating her privacy, and the public began to tear her down even farther than what was previously expected. It seemed that society derived a sense of fulfillment from her downfall, which distracted from personal problems and provided an intense sense of entertainment to the public (Sabet).

            This behavior still continues today, with the obsession with the lives of celebrities, There are still many celebrities who have been caught in the allure of the spotlight, only to be let down by society’s perception of them as they grow and change as people, and no longer fit the rigid mold that society had set for them. These celebrities turn to drugs, like alcohol, and often lead long, difficult battles to fight off addiction, likely ruining public perception, and their careers, in the aftermath. According to Attain Behavioral Health. “25% of celebrities have a history of drug addiction,” and, “40% of celebrities who seek treatment have a relapse within the first year,” in 2024, which is quite a high percentage (Attain Behavioral Health). This information suggests that more celebrities are relying on substances to relieve the pressure of society. It is important to note that much of the pressure on celebrities comes from the obsession of the public, and without creating boundaries between ourselves and them, and knowing that they deserve to live private lives, will likely ease off the pressure, as all human beings deserve the space to breathe. 

Celebrification: The Downfall of Britney Spears- Completed 01/18/25

Masterlist | Based on Real People

Summary: The 2000s were a crazy period in history, beginning in the craze of Y2K, when many thought the world was ending due to the turn of a millennium, and punctuated with new emerging genres of music. The 00s also saw a new trend: child-stars turned pop culture gods, especially those that moved from acting to music.

Britney Spears is one such person, with her career starting in the Mickey Mouse club house, and then continuing with her becoming a household name for her addition to the music sphere. However, after a few years in the spotlight, it began to burn her. Her career went down in flames in the mid-2000s, and it seemed like she was never again going to rest upon her pedestal with her fellow stars.

But, the question was, who was to blame? Was it herself, the social sphere she became accustomed to, and the company she kept? Or, was it the public and the media, always starving for any glimpse of her life they got, good or bad.

Warnings: This contains minor mentions of drug abuse, but would otherwise be categorized at a level of PG.

Notes: This is a one-act play, inspired by Arthur Miller's The Crucible, and contains an informative synopsis at the beginning, as well as a work's cited page.

DISCLAIMER: This is not at all meant to drag Ms. Spears down in any way, shape or form. This is merely meant as a social critique on human behavior. It is also intended as satire, but I am probably very terrible at writing satire, so take it at face value.

I have also published this on AO3, if you prefer that format, here.

in place of a creepy foetus statue there's a fat bottle with an heart in it. and there's a train room! because victor seems to me to be the kind of guy who needs a train room

and that's all folks!

3/4 - maria's wing

the biggest house. please ignore the floor lights, i wanted the purple ambiance for her room.

also a nursery in case... (and to fill space)

2/4 - georgiy's wing yes he has a little easel, and not a TV. not a TV at all

1/4 - exterior

here's the crucible by the by!

so believe it or not i had a ridiculous hard time with this one. like more than the lump. i redid the floorplans so many times. and then i had to use my imagination to fill this gigantic mansions (since in the game we see only the first floor), and i'm not used to have to furnish large rooms. but anyways i think it's kind of an acceptable result. i don't want to ever think about this lot ever again

i did not had to remake this lot 3 times what are you talking about hahaha

Found this audio and it reminded me of the crucible which I read this summer for school!

The crucible was such a good story and I enjoyed it more than I probably should. Have this from my quarter 1 english test

words cannot express how much i love her

Books I'm going to be reading this Fall. 😍

redesigned covers: the crucible

we are only what we always were, but naked now.

oh yeah by the way here’s some awful memes i made wen i was reading the crucible in class

Thank you this has been invaluable to me as an actress developing this character :)

contrary to popular belief, Mercy Lewis actually lives naked among the raccoons in the forest that surrounds Salem

So I have a tradition that on the eve of opening night for any show I’m in, I reblog something related to the show. In this case, we aren’t actually opening tomorrow (because, well, you know. Pandemic and all.) but we would’ve, so... here, have a Crucible meme to celebrate our scheduled opening night eve, in hopes that we will have a real opening night... some time in the future. 

Anyways, back when we were still doing rehearsals, I showed this to my friend who plays Mary Warren and we had a long hard laugh over it :) 

I have another new obsession

“The Crucible” by Arthur Miller Review

Genre: Historical Fiction

Rating: 3/5

Summary: “The Crucible” is a play of 1953 by Arthur Miller. The story is based on the infamous ‘Salem witch trials’ which took place in the 1692-1693. A group of young women, lead by Abigail Williams, accuse the village people of witchcrafts which results in a hysteria among them.

My opinion: The writing style of this play was very neat and I enjoyed reading every minute of it. It was short but the scenes were very intense. It showed how the ‘Salem witch trials’ was unfair and how ironically they hanged the people who wouldn’t admit being a witch rather than the ones who already did.

But there is a specific problem in this play which I would like to discuss. The protagonist John Proctor was shown as a brave hero whereas the antagonist was Abigail Williams, a very young girl who was sexually exploited by her former master (John Proctor). Isn’t it misogynistic how the writer had made the real victim look like a villain and the abuser a hero? I know Abigail was twisted and what she did was not right. But it was John who made her go that way.

Another problematic thing about this was that John was expecting his wife, Elizabeth, to forgive him because he had confessed to her. But when she couldn’t, it made him angry. At the end too, Elizabeth took all the blame on her saying she was too ‘cold’ as to why John made the mistake in the first place. That was really misleading. No one should be felt that way when their partner is the one cheating.

Have some fruit, Sprouts and water ready, play some Chris Christodoulo, get a warm blanket, get a pillow...

Lets begin!!

Everytime someone's eyes are altered... They see an altered Sun. Every time the brilliance of the Sun is taken away, They see a Sunset.

Those stripped of the grace of gold, the stolen light of the sun, they become Tarnished.

Everytime someone accepts a different god, a god whose influence is not part of the elden rjng, there eyes change color.

*The last thing the partaker saw with human eyes was a sunset, its colors faded and tarnished—a remote thing from eternity.* Dragon communion and rock heart.

Accepting the Formless Mother gives blood shot eyes.

The extra eyes of the Giants, channel's the fell god visage as an eye.

We haven't seen the eyes of anyone who accepted Rot... if you think clean rot knights accepted the Rot, their eyes are hidden by their armor... And the Kindred of rot have bug eyes...

Those who see the Deluded Sun of Madness, either their eyes burn away... Or they are altered by the three fingers.

Those who directly see the primal stars, their eyes become glintstone, then their whole head.

Everytime any organism of any species gets the grace of the Erdtree, its brilliance makes there eyes glow, they have more runes...

--

Madness is a delusional belief in Shabriri's Truth. His lie... his faith... his truth...

"Everything came from The Sun!"

++

If someone believes in this, they will be able to see This Sun. They will be able to simulate this Idea in their head, the sight of the real Sun... In all its glory, before its light was eclipsed... Before the Elden Ring... Before its brilliance was dimmed... Before its light was stolen... Before the eclipse.

The more you will believe the clearer the sun will become, the more true it will be, so much so that you will be able to see it's Deluded it... And then See it.

++

Imagine three suns now. The sun in the actual sky... The part it that was eclipsed (missing)... And the original whole.

These guys are about to simulate the original whole part and add it to the observation of the actaul sun... Which given them the makes then see a more brilliant Sun.

And they are seeing The delusional actual Sun + Current Sun... Which if even more intense... (The extra Deluded brilliane is the actual Flame of Frenzy)

++

Bearing a vision of a time Before division... Chaos will leak

The brilliance of this Delusional actual Sun can leak from the eyes, like how we leak delusion, our biases strengthen, enough for you to label it, and use it to share the experience of this delusion. As language.

They store this dripping brilliance by covering their eye with their hand, and release it. The Flame of Frenzy.

The people who are hit with it take two kinds of damage from the brilliance, its heat energy, and its 'light energy' (Delusion, Contradiction-less True Lies).

Which builds up as Madness.

Once madness builds up, they see the vision, just a glimpse, but enough to scorch the eyes, they too see the vision of a time before the division. Their Delusion... Momentarily of course because you aren't crazy! Right! ... ?!! Y

Well, your truths will reject it... Atleast if The True Lies are different from your truths...

++

The leaking of this brilliant sun can scorch their own eye... Burn it... You will stop seeing the actual sun and start seeing only the eclipsed sun...

*the sight of an eclipse inspires a dreadful awe, preventing an onlooker from averting his gaze*

Your eye permanently now see the now eclipsed vision of there privious sun.

(The sight of current sun missing from the 'Delusional actual Sun + current sun)

(Not the actual eclipsed sun missing from the actual Sun, that I will eloborate on later)

Permanently seeing the vision of the time before divison. The time when earth had Lower entropy, more Chaos.

(High Entropy means near to the cold death of the universe, things colliding less, Energy Radiated away, Earth Cool)

(Low means a more ever shifting universe, more concentrated energy, energy still rampant on the surface of earth, Earth Molten)

++

All Madness incants are either the weaponising the leaking flame of frenzy outside... Or materialising the image of the eclipsed sun.

The materialising spells actually negate the eye burning part for sometime... Its a releave from pain and being in the embrace of the brilliant sun. So that's why you can see people coming together and summoning their Delusional Sun together... Exchanging ideas, lies, justifications... Biases...

The clearer the delusion, the lesser the contradiction, the more justified... At some point, this coming together will bring the vision of the sun to actual reality, the eclipsed sun.

Like the one we can see in Bellam Highway area.

So they crave it... Cause in its embraces, it relieves them from the searing pain in their eyes, gives the warmth... extra serotonin, extra cortisol, you get the point... So they Crave it, They want to make it permanent. Bring about the age all the way back to that time... Before divison...

++

When you see the Brilliant Sun, (The delusional actual sun + current sun)... The flame will also burn you from inside, remember only the leaked part is weaponised, the rest is inside... You can kind of resist it, weaponize it maybe... on command with faith... maybe summon it... using the incantation of others faith in their Delusional Sun.

But at some point it's bound to happen... Your head will be totally burned from the inside.

You will either die, or fucking even resist that!! Midra the Goat...

++

The Three fingers were a more older from of birthed finger, before the eclipse, because of the current age...

it exists because it indeed is a form of order that can be reinforced with the elden ring... So Metyr will birth it... The current ones you see are just the latest edition from the latest Metyr... Will elaborate later.

The permanent burning of the flesh by the tree finger, using the original brilliance of the Sun on you, channeling all the other three fingers orders that had died... actually just stops the burning from inside part, stops the burning of eye part, cause you now kinda see it cause your faith has been made true, been made an actual possibility by the fingers...

The Brilliant sun permanently.

Its stolen light manifested. Right here on Earth. Into the Eclipsed Sun.

##

Also I thing the Merchant tribe were very contained, controlled and monitered because they sell information. The notes and info stuff.

Shabriri's words might have made appearance on one such note... They would reproduce it and sell it cause they sell info... No order can have people leaking chaos... The flame of frenzy must be contained. Need to quarantine these people... Or eradicate them if you are Marika.

--

The bloody star is just the actual sun in the sky... It's actually just the assumption of the presence sun from the blood reddish tint of your eye lid if you look at towards the sun with your eyes shut...

The glintstone sniffers see stars, now that some of them dont have eyes... but still see the bloody red light made by the sun... The sun is a star... So they see the blood star.

The Fluffy Giants sprouted thorns after death (they had their stomachs in life), The crazy thorn grannies are buddies with the followers of the fell god, the flower that relies on sun... The Sunflower in the land of shadow... That grows where the Scadutree tree juices flow raw... Is dying because its lives in land of shadow... It uses thorn sorcery...

Vision of the current sun, but without faith... A vision of fell god with his dying flame... Is the bloody star.

##

Gods that are Rejected by the current Order... Manifest with arcane. Not just with faith. The formless mother, the god of rot, the old god from the ancient meteroic arrowhead.

Arcane is Called Secrets of the Gods.

Star Sorcery just by default relys on intelligence...

--

Fell god is just the manifestation of the current sun... Before being "bloodied" by Marika's war... it also had a pretty big following... But it represented an order more chaotic like its fire... Sacrifices were entertained and the fire prelates are some crazy people bruh.

Only the sun can burn the Erdtree...

The Fell God just channels a part of that flame and grants it to his followers. That's why the actual flame of the fell god spell summons a sun... It's small cause The Fell God doesn't't have the original fire power of The Original Sun.

Fell God is the manifestation of the Flame part of the Sun. It doesn't channel the light.

--

Carians were friendly with the giants cause they were also using the mountain tops for stargazing!!! The astrologers that studied stars would certainly be friendly with the Sun (a star) people!!!

Carians always believed that the sun is a star, represented the idea too! Into weaponary that channeled the fell gods flame.

Their Sorcerer Ego wont let then use faith... So they weren't ever affiliated with the Fire Monks... But they found a loop hole. They won't belive in a fell god... They will rationalise the formulations of its light... cause all sorcerers rationalise various star lights, that's what astronomy is about...

Since some of the sun's light is stolen (I will elaborate later). But its light is still visible from the elden ring...

The reflection they see shows them their Moon. (Moonlight is Sunlight reflected, so reflection of stolen light = Vision of delulu moon)

The Carians still observe the actual moons, and the conjunction of Rellana's Moon and The Erdtree... is because her moon kinda looks like the Actual Moon's reflection from the Erdtree's light...

The Carians were friends with the giants because of the actual Moon's light is related to the sun... The light of the sun (moon) and the flame of the sun... are friends.

++

Carian 'spells' are highly designed, shaped like man made things... rather than the more actual starry stuff the Academy generally prefers... Or the rocky stuff Selleans prefer... And a far fetch from the primordial cosmic stuff Sellen enjoys.

That's because they are not channeling the rationalisations of stars in the sky... They are rationalising the MOONLIGHT... Surprise Surprise, it's not actually a Star...

A purely mental source of calculus and biases, for channeling the energy from glintstone...

With enough intelligence and abstraction... They will be able to weave There Moon into being... Just like your other sorceries...

So the Moon is essential a simulated outer god.

++

The women of the Carian matriarchal royalty are introduced to the Idea of these moons... Cause they need to continue to be in power to maintain the house's order...

With this help... They ensure the women are more probable to weave a Moon into being... And continue the matriarchy cause the moon is the symbol of the highest form of intelligence and prosperity for the Carians...

--

The Entropy Boys is a name I gave to storm calling birds, the dragons, the beasts, and the Warriors who channeled the elements of the entropy that the Sun gives to the earth.

It is because of the Sun!!! that the Wind moves, Water Cycle is boosted, surface Rocks crack...

++

Without the entropy of the Sun, the surface rocks break less... The Dragons are more rock than flesh... They can use the lightning that was the energy stored in the rocks and from the thunderstoms...

The Dragons are eternal cause they use away the stored energy of their ancient as fuck rocks, that would had broken their rocky body otherwise.

The older the dragon, the more ancient their rocks.

Consumption of their heart gives you their form.

++

The Beasts channel the power of sun that breaks rocks (take clump and throw) and channel seismic vibrations (Claw attack)

They were given Ancient Lightning by the dragons for both their faith and because they already use rocks...

++

The Animals that channel the wind, the storm caller birds can use wind... they are trained to make sparks by channeling the energy in wind, that are used to ignite the fuel stored in their helm.

The ones that stop fearing are set free of the helm... for better combat skills... They are made to fire throw barrels at you because they aren't scared of the blast...

The mature Stormhawk birds have mastered both wind and lightning, and there's even at Stormhawk king...

Stormlords channel this!! They channel lightning cause they materialise the energy of moving wind into lightning... And at maturity they bring a whole ass strom.

##

In the age of the dragons, The Elden ring locked very different, and all Incants from them were not related to the crusible of the Golden Order!

The beast claergyman stuff, the dragon lightning stuff, all the storm stuff... They don't come from the Crucible, The Golden Order or The Elden Ring... They don't come from the stolen energy of the Sun.

They come from the entroy of the Sun.

--

The Crusible is a big ass clump of Golden Ambers + Amber Starlights shards dawg. Thats it.

The civilization of Rauh dug it out, collected a large amount of it and dumped it in some actual Crusible together. (Will eloborate later)

++

Golden Amber contains residuals of Ancient Life, I am proposing that it contains the Residual Life of the Sun... (Will eloborate later)

++

The Amber Starlight was used to understand the calculus of the sun (Amber starlight shard is like Starlight shard that is collected from the observatory think the astrologers use)

*If the stars command our fates, then amber-hued stars must command the fates of the gods.*

Lets focus on specifically the ones created from the movement of the Sun... The closest, the conveniently yellowish, star... It is closest to the pattern of their experienced entropy... The calculus of their faith... (Will elaborate later)

The flash of a passing of star makes Starlight Shards. The apparent passing of the sun (a star, and appearing to move because earth rotating), should also make starlight shards. I am just guessing this one's yellow.

++

Remember, the Golden Amber is like the Glintstone... It doesn't carry the residual life of stellar material, the remains of a dead star... it carries Ancient Life.

Our dear Sun is still a star, it's not gone hypernova yet... its life hasn't dwindled yet, Its life is not residual like the stuff of glintstone.

I am proposing that people somehow found a way to somehow store and use some life out of the sun.

Use the Amber starlight for connecting to the pattern of entroy of the Sun, learn about their fate. Give it life using the Golden Amber.

Now manipulate that product to change fate!!! Establish order!!! Remove rules, reduce from the possible actions of entropy from their existence!!!

--

The Elden ring is that product.

Its both faith manifested and is alive.

Remove rules, remove runes, and its shape changes.

Add realised truths marked by the two fingers or formulations of possibilities, bring about a new age!!!

--

The Elden beast is the alive part of The Elden ring.

It didn't come from the Crucible... But rather from the sun.

Change elden ring shape, Elden Beast changes... It also does self defence for the Elden Ring and current order.

--

If the stellar stuff, left from the death of a star, contains residual life...

That would make Gold absolutely dead. It's also produced when stars die. But it doesn't have any life in them, unlike glintstone...

It is empty, devoid of life, but still stellar material!!!

But it can be alloyed!!! With faith!!!! I am proposing Makira used it to store the powers of the Crusible!!! Making The elden ring and runes!!! (Or someone else did previously I guess)

Extracting the calculus shown by the crucible, their fate, and putting it into golden threads... And she used that to make her Elden Ring (or the current one). Removing anything that she didn't like (like Death of Soul!).

Gold can hold fate as a tangible thing.

++

That is also why it keeps the influence of outer gods at bay... Only when it's not alloyed that is (doesn't hold fate yet)... In its pure state, It will absorb the influence of the outer gods... Pausing their influence on you... That's why it can only pause the rot and not purge it.

++

If you need to fully seal away the influence??

Go to a time before that God was manifested first. Before their fate existed.

For most its before intelligent life started, the time of beasts.

For the flame of frenzy, you need to go to a place before the crucible was made... Before the sun's brilliance was stolen

--

The Elden Ring gives the current God powers of Intelligent design. Since she can mess with the rules!!! Make up new synergies, that will now dictate reality... It's essential okaying god.

But most Importantly, why the Elden Ring?

Why the desire for Intelligent Design? Well that's just instinct, a need for survival for the weaker yet Intelligent species...

We make tools, techniques, strategies.... apart from physical prowess and instictive behaviour, we do smart things...

A bit more than that? We do intelligent design for self expression.

The need to satisfy the ego.

--

Sun gives us entropy, without entropy's irrefutable arrow, Any shape can sustain for infinity.

What I am going with here is that the Sun used to brings true death in the world of Elden Ring. Death of Identity.

I have already introduced this idea with rocks breaking and why Ancient Dragons are immortal because they prevent that... Kinda like that...

Just stay with me, it will make sense.

--

Imagine you have an attachment to life, like the people of Rauh, don't really wanna die, like the dragons, don't wanna lose your sense of identity, Didnt wanna decay away... Didnt want entropy to happen... didnt want to lose your soul...

That wasthe line of thought of the people of Rauh...

They understood that Dragons were immortal because they channel the energy that might break their rocky body...

So they experiment... With the rocks, they dug up all kinds of rocks, Minerals and everything else.

They discovered the primordial version of Rot in the underground... Where water didn't flow... Stagnant... Hidden from the Sun (will eloborate later)

I assume they already did metallurgy... (It's like alchemy before chemistry happened)

So they experimented with even the Rot, easiest example is the rusted Copper stuff...

It's rusted and now resistant to most things natural entropy, but it's kinda lifeless...

But the gold? Oh the Gold doesn't Rust!!! And it also holds life!! Mission Collect all of it!

From the golden amber they found... They discovered that the gold takes its life and stores it in itself... And this is very stable, doesn't rot, decay nor does the life dwindle!!!

Why does the Golden Amber house life? I am proposing It's the life of the Sun!!!

They found out that life comes from stars!!!

Their fate is already being dictated by the Sun's Entropy... So the Sun's light must hold the secrets of their fate!!! This can be found in Amber Starlight!!!

Fuck ya!!!!

--

The Rot, does two things, it rots, and it rebirths!

The Roting, as in the internal Decaying while alive part can be achieved just by Poison...

The rebirth part is a more important function because Decay happens naturally, it's just entropy at the end, if not for the bugs and plants...

But since the rotten stuff still holds shapes that has not been fully disintegrated by the sun...

The rot has the ability to use this life and perform rebirth!!!

Even if 'you' die, the stuff that makes you up can be reshaped into another living being... It's organic, soil is just dead stuff, it's easier to support life in decaying or dead organic stuff...

++

The easiest example is this rebirth thing is the huge Rot flower Plants!!! That stuff only grows out of rotting things!!! The Kindred Of Rot, The sexy caterpillar lady, and Malenia... The rot isn't just disintegrating her body... It's also at the same time trying to morph her into a goddess before she dies...

The needle is actually a good thing for it then, it will stop the decay, while your body still matures, until it can to support the rebirth procedure without killing you...

Without the needle, Malenia would have died... And never blossomed...

++

Welp, good thing for you atleast know that rebirth and prolonged sustainance is still possible...

And I am also proposing Sun light used to at some point in time, kinda oppose Rot's agenda.

Entropy from the sun is very similar to the Decaying aspect of the Rot... The Sun just fastens the rotting... kinda limiting its rebirthing Capability because more bodies will be totally dead...

++

You remember the idea of the sun bringing actual death?

Well what happens without the sun???... Without its entropy...

Death things wont actually fully die without entropy. It will continue to rot!!!

Even if their body is dead... The idea of self... The induviduality... Still remains cause most of you is still intact.

But Rot doesn't keep identity intact... It changes you...

The kindred of rot just still align their beliefs in this rot... The God of Rof is just a manifestation of the object of their faith...

Remember... The actual Rot spells aren't Arcane spells, it's not an actual outer god fully outside the but golden order... Cause removal of destined death kinda supports it...

The Arcane scaling of the status comes from the objects that symbolise the god... The weapons... But not in the spells...

--

The Rauh also found silver alongside gold... It's also very Entropy resistant... But it isn't good at holding the sun's light specifically... Why? Cause it's silver not yellow...

Na, I am proposing it holds the purest form of Stellar life itself... The life of stars after they have died... Not stolen life... Actual residual life, without the stars glintstone energy!!! (It can be mercury, quick silver, platinum, Actual silver... I don't really know)

So Rauh experiment with that!!!

And Made THE NIGHTFOLK!

The original Humanoid!

The Nightfolk wont die necessarily unless the sun finally kills them... They bleed Silver... It doesn't rot...

That is why we can see the big ass Skeleton in the eternal cities, being all kept and idolised.

They are kinda not organic... Not essential alive alive... That is until they came to actual life, with a soul... Stolen from the sun...

These folks are pretty much eternal if they live in night, without the Sun!! (Justifying the night part in the Nightfolk)

--

The Eclipse

It's just The Moon temporarily shielding the people from the Sun's Entropy.

But in the world of the Elden Ring... It's a window... A moment under the sun, where true death is halted...

Its like the Sunless night... except for the *In Sol, the sight of an eclipse inspires a dreadful awe* part...

In this period, The body can sustain as a single unit for sometime longer...

The Nightfolk would be able to rise again... As undead ofcourse

The Eclipse saves them from true death... That is lose of shape...

--

The Sunless people are the humans who fucking hate the sun!

More specifically the part where it kills them. Kinda like The Rauh people...

If the Rauh guys were alchemist, these guys are the chemist.

I am pretty sure its was these guys who understood that gold can be used to hold the power from the crucible... Not the Rauh... Simply because they outlasted them...? I don't really know how Rauh fell...

And as the Crucible started being used... As in its abundant influence in the age of plenty... It started giving people powers of intelligent design... They can morph their physiology, become stronger...

But that wasn't enough for the Sunless people. they wanted to escape the Sun's deady Entropy permanent...

Wanted to maintain their identity permanently...

They don't want to just be undead... Or do Rot...

--

I imagine the Death Birds are like a final things created by the Rauh and the Sunless folk...

It essentially saves the ego that is being decayed from the undead bones, the soul... And return it to the Crucible...

Their bodies are rocky and inorganic...

--

The souls started to deform less... And were kinda given another opportunity at life but under the Crucibles laws...

The important part here is that the idea of a soul was more formed here

--

And since the Crucible kinda boosts life... Mutates things to be more stable and evolve... Its easy to see even a tree benifit from this

Remember we are in the age of plenty, everyone gets what they want but under the rules of The Crucible...

--

The deathbed companions concept is like a loop hole... The women would 'absorb' the life force of the dead body... And maybe gestate it and maybe superimpose that ego onto a new body...

--

The Snakes are the nefarious bunch... They kinda benefitted from the crucible but they wanted all of it.

Again, Snake and primordial Tree trope ...

I assume the Snakes would use poison, live underneath but still under the influence of the curcible... The lava.

--

Gloam Eyed Queen was affiliated with the Snakes... She was given the boon of fire within when she was born.

Which she used and mixed with the Snake poison to make blake flame.

And she also had a special birth procedure, that is letting a baby gestate in the Godskin Swaddling Cloth.

The cloth is made from the skin of gods... And it kinda holds life force that sustains the baby (that is why it heals you)

Kinda like the Serpent's Amnion that somehow never dries out...

--

The Nox, at least at the time of Marika... are the true sunless folks... They like the night cause there is no sun... And they somehow had Finger killing technology... And the knowledge of Separating death of soul and body (will elaborate later)

Marika was another who wanted the power of the crucible... She was born with that Dawg in her.

++

Read this for more context ↓↓↓

Short form, Marika and Gloam eyed queen had a relationship.

Marika Killed Gloam eyed queen in soul, and used her still alive body to become a paasite to the primordial erdtree... It Absorbed the big tree that was growing and also the Power of the Crucible

Marika then extracted the Golden threads from The Gloam eyed Queens alive fish body... And she made the current elden ring from it.

Ya

Now the we have a Big ass Tree, it holds the power of the crucible, the stolen brilliance from the sun, and it gives out its light...

Which the moon reflects.

--

The Scudatree is just a simulation of a sunless realm.

Kinda like the castle sol where they wanted to use the mountain to shield themselves from the sun...

Marika just draped the sun part and its light

--

The Metyr is like the Elden Beast... But its not the alive part of sun... Its the alive part OF ALL THE STARS DUST THAT IS ON THE LANDS BETWEEN

It was also probably created by The Rauh people... And tasked with birthing fingers that bring about new potential ages.

I propose that the original fingers had more fingers... And each time a new order was imposed, the elden ring was edited... The number of fingers decreased.

--

Ranni's Darkmoon is essentially a moon that never reflected any light...

Not from the sun and neither from the elden ring.

Thats why her Moon can bring about an age without the influence of the Elden Ring.

--

Thats it.
