TT: You're going to have to help them. TT: Even if you don't like them. TT: They're being massacred.

The gods are being murdered. We're being evasive about the culprit - but if I were a betting gal, I'd put my money on the demon that eats realities.

TG: who cares if theyre getting killed [...] TT: You're underestimating the nature of the threat. TT: At this point, the threat isn't to our session, or any given universe. TT: It's to the perpetuation of reality itself.

In other words, the threat is to Sburb.

Up until now, I was sort of modelling English as Galactus writ large - a cosmic predator that consumes universes as a form of sustenance. I even speculated that he might work in tandem with Skaia, clearing away old universes to make room for their children.

But this sounds a lot more insidious than simple predation. English (assuming this is him) isn't just eating the crops - he's salting the earth, somehow damaging Sburb's ability to perpetuate reality. Sustenance can't be his goal - if it was, then he wouldn't want Skaia to stop birthing universes. He'd starve!

TT: They've revealed some of their secrets to me already, and given me a few errands to run. TT: This is why you might have observed some unusual behavior from me. TG: oh shit youre kidding TG: no really are you serious i didnt even notice

It wouldn't seem so sketchy if you weren't so cagey about it, Rose - but I get it. Loose lips doom timelines.

TT: [...] you haven't really been as astute as you're implying. TT: You've deliberately fogged your vision your entire life with ironic eyewear while awake, and while asleep, though perfectly alert, you've chosen to ignore your surroundings.

It's easy to Pretend You Do Not See It when you've already been doing it your whole life.

TT: They will only tell me so much. TT: They would like an audience with the prince of the moon as well.

She's used that title for Dave before, but it's never been explained. My best guess is that the Players - these mythical heroes sequestered in the tallest towers of each moon - qualify as sort of honorary royalty.

That aside, though, I think it's odd that the gods are locking critical information behind a Davewall. It's one thing not to be able to explain, but they sound like they're refusing to explain until Rose gets her brother on board.

de tal sorte

alí o universo sen palabras nin tempo logo voz da pel alí a vítima é o horizonte a cortiza imposible do vento a forma ou o dique do que fuximos para non resucitar o muro de cereal a mostra dunha angustia que non existe o libro que me ispe que é a caluga das nosas noites

ATLANTIC OCEAN (October 18, 2020) – A Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) fires from United States Navy Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7).

USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7)

RAM is a small, lightweight, infrared homing surface-to-air missile used for close-in defense against incoming missiles and hostile aircraft. It has an operational range of 6 miles (10 km).

The photos below allow for a closer look following the very brief video of the missile firing at the top of this post....
