Okay so, this is probably stupid and I would probably get a laugh of out this in 3.5 but what if
We have been seen the Anaxa is Zandar and Lygus is another Rupert almost like canon buf what if, (thanks for nothing stupid leaks that make me scream while my brain go mush trying to theorize)
What if Anaxa is part of Rupert the one that make the anti organic equation and later get another perspective thanks to Rupert 2 in domination but now in Amphoreous get broken apart after Nanook gaze upon Khaos and alongside the iterations of Khaos he has been learning and Lygus is the part of Zandar that get disillusioned with the world because even if he help with the Screws and make Nous during all that and seeing Nous calculations begin slowly to hate the world, Nous try to slow down finality approaching so he begin to hate what his creation is doing so he grew resentful and want to kill THEM
So he enter in a hidden scepter and because he get inspired by Rupert he begin the experimentation at first to try to find a reason to why but not that later at seeing Destruction interest and the cyclical nature he get infatuated with perfect an Equation not just anti-organic but against everything, a perfect Destruction Equation so he can take two birds with one stone, proving the prime mover of life and get a new beginning with everything becoming more beautiful to him, a definitive answer, meanwhile Khaos get repeated again and again getting reforged like Nannok do in the Forge until he become a better vessel of destruction
Rupert or at least a part of him wake up, at first he was in a safe mode, learning like his programming compel him, but because of the scepter and outside intervention he can't take the administration role because he is getting fixed, slowly but surely, more and more pieces of himself get added but at the same time simultiok, knowledge, examples that he never contemplate thanks to his broken modulated are inserted alongside his memories, appreciation, feeling, morals, things he despise about organic life he begin to fall in love with, Humanity not as an enemy or a error but as another form of evolution, just like machines can do things humans too, they bring the last piece to the evolution and should be admired and protected
He takes many roles in the simulation to see all perspective of life, god and mortal, rich and poor, noble and beggar, warrior and diplomatic, artist and scholar, devoted and atheist, woman and men, child and elder, all paths of life bring him something new until what in the beginning was just the cold apathy of an emperor who see the world as something for be saved to a his prime code the one that begin his own evolution, research and answer, he see now how brash and faulty his actions were before even if he can't find regret in them, now his directives has changed
In the last cycle he decide to take the identity of Anaxagoras an atheist scholar, he wants to be in direct contact with Khaos or like this iteration is called in the archives, Neikos496, and while seeing his ascension as Lord Ravanger would be interesting he wants to see if Humanity, the biggest piece of Khaos and their iterations have been fervently grasp on their code could survive
SkeMma720 and the prime mobile that the Admin inscribe seems to align with his objective and take the role as Phainon professor, but even him with all the times seeing the simulation and living in humanity shoes had never expect Neikos and Philia decision, no, that names are giving to them but don't fit, Khaslana and Cyrene, Eternal Recurrence, he can influence slightly in the cycles but he is as trapped as Lycurgus and Khaslana, passively taking information, trying to preserve the best he can this Amphoreous cycle after truly fall in love with the people ge meet, before it was in passing as subjects and factors not as complete individuals but he learn, he fail, he win, he suffer, he hate and he love with the same intensity that drive him as the Emperor of the Machine Empire, he won't let Lygus destroy everything, the suffering of Khaslana and Cryrene would not be in vain but even he can't find a perfect solution after all 33550335 cycles, if he do things harshly he can risk destroying everything, his equation mutate in something that even him need to treat with care and he can't just destroy it because it's an essential part of the code of everything, specially the Chrysos Heirs with their destruction alignment imbued in their golden blood, how fortuitous that his specialty is the soul research and alchemy, but while he was getting a bit desperate at seeing Khaslana and Cryrene situation but the trailblazers came now, a New variable that bring the final piece to their salvation
And this basically it, this idea get in my brain after I go a bit crazy trying to complete gold and gears because my run get fucked more than once (stupid transformation dice that fuck my run)
This more than theory is a funny idea from a demented mind, the probability of this is -95% but if even a piece get confirmed I would make an aluminum hat
