Gehrman Time Out Kleinsona Au | 4th Epoch Infamy
Medici, Ouroboros, Merlin and Victor were all well known in the 4th epoch for being the weird important guys worshipping gods that aren't there anymore. Merlin and Victor kinda hated that cause like the Fool is still there. Or at the very least he's immensely more present then fucking ASG who got all Jesus-ed and what not.
Merlin and Victor were also well known for generally not giving much of a fuck about the political landscape (our boys were having a very hard time trying not to existential crisis themselves into oblivion because they had spent fucking forever as a trio and were now a duo). One day they will be helping Evernight out on an errand that ultimately helps the Night Emperor, the next they could be meeting up with Amon and doing shenanigans that ultimately help the Black Emperor and the next next day they could be beefing with Zaratul because he's trying to get his hands on Merlin's seq 2 characteristics or something idk (this last part is not set in stone I've just been fighting with the amount of seer pathway characteristics running around and who had which one at what point in time for a while now) . They were all over the fucking place.
The one charm I find about LOTM is that due to its vast world building, I can just keep on having thoughts about different things all the time. Like, especially the fourth epoch. All we ever really heard and seen through Klein’s eyes are all these powerful characters descending into madness, not giving a shit about each other, or fighting. Then I remember that at some point in their life they’re acquaintances, one could even call them friends at certain point. Like I crave to see Antigonus interacting with Adam, Amon, or Bethel. Or Alista and Trunsoest before Trunsoest basically betrayed Alista, so on so forth. (Or like- I forgot which epoch it was, but I would love to see Pallez despite being an uncanny horror entity act like a grandpa on steroids to his grandchildren. I can imagine him pulling casual pranks on his descendants and getting a kick out of it. Oh, man.. now I’m feeling something about the way he treats Leonard and the way Leonard instinctively calls Pallez the way his own family would call him..)
It’s like the feeling I get whenever I see High cloud Quintet in HSR. They were something else before this, but so much time had passed that all that remains are ruins. It’s so fascinating.
Looking at the history of the 4th epoch again and wow... 99% of the time it was just a free for all istg
