::So Shian, your anti-cop Shian Senses are tingling. You sense tingles of something troublesome coming. Most likely marching towards your villa.::

Comments

[kattobingore]

You might be overdoing it a tiiiiiny bit.

I can understand being at least somewhat wary around Ancient Fairy Dragon when she's here, but Shian is cool. We can trust them.

[memoryistime]

Well gee, I sure hope no one's going to be dying anytime soon, I've dealt with that enough anyway.

*Shian's coming back. And apparently may have overheard the conversation you guys were having.*

[ancient_prophecy]

... so what did you guys want...?

::There's a pile of blankets on the sofa, with shiny glasses.::

[photonslight]

The Ancient Fairy Dragon, I assume.

What veil did you pull over the eyes of the world, and what does it have to do with "Zed". "Iram". "Buyan of Sannikova". "Qin Shi Huang". And "Albion of Avalon".

[ancient_prophecy]

... oh look at the time.

::Tries to skitter away, Yuma.::

[kattobingore]

Ah, nope, nope!

*Yuma attempts to block the way.*

No escaping!
We're looking into something super important and we need you to answer these questions!

[ancient_prophecy]

i can't, you don't want to know, there's bad things that way. give it. up.

::Whines.::

[photonslight]

I cannot.

What is their connection to you and "The Vel"? And did you do, and what are those places?

::Glances at Yuma motioning to not let her go and to help him peel those blankets off her.::

[ancient_prophecy]

...

::Shivers when she hears "The Vel".::

you absolutely do not want to know...!!

[kattobingore]

*Yuma keeps her blocked and starts to help Kaito to take the blankets off her.*

Even if it's super bad, we still want to know!

[photonslight]

::Yanks with Yuma, spinning AFD into the air and onto the sofa again, removing her blankets.::

What do you know, witch.

[ancient_prophecy]

::Plops.::

... i don't think i have the confidence for this...

::Her hair shimmers form gold to silver, as she takes off her glasses.::

[ancient_prophecy]

The world does not exist.

[kattobingore]

Eh? What do you mean the world 'doesn't exist'?

[ancient_prophecy]

Or. Rather.

The world you exist in currently, should not exist. I was asked to make it this way.

[memoryistime]

*coming back with the coffee, setting it on the coffee table and all for Yuma, Kaito, and even AFD to take, though they suspect Kaito will snub it. whatever.

They sit down on the couch next to Ancient Fairy, half as a watch on her and half to hear what this whole thing is all about.*

[photonslight]

::Takes the coffee, and uses a needle from a wrist watch to test it for poison.::

Clarify.

[ancient_prophecy]

The world is supposed to be flat. The Sun is supposed to revolve around the Earth. There are more than 7 continents. Phlogiston theory is supposed to be real. Lamarckism. Space should be Luminiferous aether and Crystal Spheres. There should be a Inland sea of Australia. The Earth should be hollow. California should be an island. Torrid Zones. The Histories by Herodotus is supposed to be 100% accurate. I think you get the picture.

::Takes her coffee and drinks it.::

[kattobingore]

*Yuma sits in a chair and takes the coffee.*

So who asked you to make it the way it currently is and why?

[ancient_prophecy]

The Crimson Dragon to ensure the Age of the Men of Iron would exist at all. I'm referring to the ages of man described by Hesoid, who as the son of a scientist and historian and archaeologist, would know about, Champion of Zeal.

[kattobingore]

*Blank stare.*

Er, yeah.
I totally know about... that.
Absolutely.

*He very obviously doesn't.*

[memoryistime]

Why don't you explain for the rest of us, then? I'm not really on the up-and-up of history like that.

*is addressing the Ancient Fairy Dragon, thankfully, trying to get focus away from you and the fact that you're sweating bullets about that, Yuma*

[ancient_prophecy]

Okay, there have been five suns and five ages of the world and five races of men.

The first sun was the Golden Age, the age of the first men, the age of creation after the Chaoskampf, ah, for you, my brother's Signer and the officer of B.E.A.S.T., that refers to the concept of a primordial battle between a horned male god and a great primordial breeding serpent or vast giant, over the formless watery void that will become creation.

Anyways, the first sun was the Golden Age, in which men walked with the Gods. This was the era of Eden, under a black Chthonic Sun. Men's life was seemingly endless, and connected to the Gods they were wise. The world provided endless sustenance, but the Horned God and the Chthonic God, whose body had become the fuel of the Sun, ultimately clashed, and ended the first age, where great feline chimeras consumed the first age of man after the First People.

The second age is the Silver Age, is the age when the Horned God took full rein over the world, and chose to serve as the Sun himself, but men refused to worship the horned God, and worshipped and chaafed under the weight of their mother's infinite and boundless bosom, and grew fat on greed. Angered, the Horned God and his brothers turned men into beasts and had a great storm wipe away the world.

The third age is the Age of Copper, reined over by the Sun of the Harvest and the Waters, forging men out of Ash. However, the actions of the Great Trickster and Accuser brought grief to the God whose body became the fuel for the Sun of the Harvest and Waters, and the world became as dust and drought and men warred, fleeing the drying world, and disgusted, the the third God sent great fire as the people fled across the seas, but for naught, as the world became as ash, like snoww.

The fourth age is the Age of Heroes, reigned over by the Daughter of the Primordial Waters, and great deeds reigned and legends grew, but in the end she was lied to by the Great Trickster and Accuser, and thus she brought about The Great Flood. Those men who survived survived on great ships or became horrors of the deep. The final battle for Atlantis happened during this age.

The Fifth Age had the Great Horned God King refuse to accept the destruction of the Age of Heroes, as it stole back man from The King of the Underworld, but it came with the cost of man's life being short and miserable. In order to help Man survive, Man begged for a savior, and thus the Crimson Dragon was born, with Atlantis' fall, and the retreat of Duel Monsters, I was tasked to lock away the world as it was, Fantasia, and with the help of my siblings, bend the world to its current laws and rules. This is or was. The Fifth Age of Man.

You may decide how much of this is true or still true. But I will say that that the end of Atlantis and the Signer Dragons locking away 'Fantasia', are the only hard facts you can get. Because, the world back then didn't work on concrete histories, imperial facts, or objective reality. It was a world where narrative was king.

However, I would heavily suggest you drop the matter of touching on any of this. And drop any investigation of 'The Vel'. It's bad enough Kamala's ascension blew out a load bearing lock on reality.

[kattobingore]

But where does 'The Vel' come in all this? What are they to you?

[ancient_prophecy]

Don't even mention their names! Don't even think about them!! They'll observe us! If they still existed in the world, Japan as you know it wouldn't even exist!
