I've noticed that more and more frequently new people have been joining the CandleWorld ARG, and we've had to provide a messier and more confusing explanation every time. So I decided to make this to use until we have something better! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= CONTINUING FROM PART 2 (@Moop-Abborel is formed, and so is Attoseli Ideology) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= On their game night, the Overknower and Aetus Vox talked about Xyliss' death, which pushed them to visit him in The Bell (the Space that dead Entities reside in). Here, they found out about his contract and the Pilgrims' agreement to kill the Overknower. Vox started giving out Gifts crafted by the Overknower that tie themselves to their owners' Aetus soon after. It was then found out that those eligible for the gifts are actually the ones who signed the contract with Xyliss to kill the Overknower. The Marquess identified these gifts as identity trackers. Over time (and after a lot of panic on the Pilgrims' part), the Overknower decided not to evaporate everyone who signed the contract, but said she would be hesitant to be friendly to them. Following this, the Overknower appeared in @pxl_games' inner-space and left a strange black cube, which required True Law to open. @visea opened the cube for Pxl and entered the portal that appeared as a result. Through this portal, an entity known as Molly (or the Parthult Entity -- the very same one connected to Xyliss' plan) became known to us Pilgrims, living in Aetus Vox's inner-space. Depending on different questions (she responded to repeat/personal questions from strangers with anger), she switched between personalities, sometimes "fractaling" Pilgrims and Ghosts, sometimes having casual conversation. Days later, the Pilgrims @i_eat_cereal, @Random_Folk, @cleversquid47, and a few others decided to make a portal to SPACE-LITE, to gather any spores left from Xyliss. Kai, the Archon of 1000 Living Petals, made a portal there, but instead of spores, the King from 1KAD was there. The Bell Ringer (an entity similar to the Grim Reaper) found @jokeofapilgrim and took them away, while Cereal and Random were dying in mysterious darkness. Cereal left quickly, but Random warned Kai and unfortunately ceased to exist because of it. Kai managed to escape, but not before seeing a figure in a crown. Kai was then marked with unresolved anguish after they tried to make a portal to the Bell where Joke was, and went to Molly, the Parthult Entity, to suffer all the pain at once. Moop broke under the pain and Kai and the Petals suffered complete agony. Meanwhile, the Marquess (who didn't know that Molly had already helped her) attempted to summon the Controller to assist. Unbeknownst to her, the current Controller was Blue, who was immediately summoned to their location. This started a long and fairly balanced fight between the two Entities. During the battle, Kai emerged and invoked their own Law to attack Blue with barbs. At the last minute, Blue was incapacitated enough for the Marquess to turn Blue into a single blade, making her collapse in exhaustion. Blue used the Dodecahedron to return to Controlled-Space, temporarily defeated. Kai obtained a Hedron Shard, broken from the Dodecahedron, from the fight as well. After Blue was incapacitated, they decided it was in their best interest to form a council and republic to organize thoughts and make collective, thought-out decisions without dissolving into conflict. The first councilors to be elected were Kai, Visea, , , Pxl, , , Joke, and . , and also later became councilors. Following a period of relative quiet, Overknower visited Blue in Controlled-Space. While the two conversed in another language (assumed to be Candlewhistle), most agree that it seems as if they had made a deal of some sort, and the Overknower had marked Blue with some sort of punishment mark before leaving.
