[soon after this discussion]

Our Herald may have been hiding in plain sight all along. As Umber, the Drowning Maiden who filled in on that float last minute.

[divinityfrompain]

Oh shit. That would make sense, since she just flat out disappeared afterward. A trickster god could do that with no problem. Well ... any god could. What was his goal? He must have liked the drama.

[cryptsleeper]

Unclear. Sharing this outward might result in some potential motives, although this is all speculation.

[divinityfrompain]

People were speculating that he was in the artifact, and it would be logical that the Singularity is reacting to someone who isn't usually there, but that sounds like he might've been planning WITH Marcellus. Which a god could easily do from inside an artifact. Maybe he was orchestrating his own escape.

[cryptsleeper]

I was one of the people who thought he was bound to the artifact. It made more sense learning he was a herald - there were three that presented the last time. Being locked into the latchkeys would have made sense but now--

--the escape makes the most sense. Marcellus had motive and access to the vaults. I can see how it might have been easy to manipulate him.

I think it's at least time to let others discuss among themselves.

[divinityfrompain]

Marcellus had money issues, he probably promised him riches in exchange for release.

What do you suggest?

[cryptsleeper]

[Alucard does not know the word basic but in his heart of hearts he now deems the motive for this crime basic]

A very mundane motive.

I'll share what I have. I won't name you as a source or anyone else unless you'd prefer I do. Mass speculation may get us somewhere.

[divinityfrompain]

AKA he may have been a basic bitch. (Trust me, the reference makes sense.)

Oh feel free to share my name, I don't mind.

The question is what do we DO with the clown god? The Singularity is pissed at it, we need to find a way to get rid of it.

[cryptsleeper]

Oh, that's a good word, basic.

I don't want any deity eyes on people who don't need it.

I'm not sure. Solvunn might have an idea? I wouldn't ask the giant rock having a tantrum, it probably will be biased.

[divinityfrompain]

I am a deity, I'm sure I'll be fine. Thank you though.

I'm trying to figure out if the Singularity is pissed he's free in general or if he is specifically inside the Horizon being a pest. The former we can't do anything about, maybe the latter we can find a way to toss him out on his ass.

[cryptsleeper]

And then do what, exactly, once this god is booted from the Horizon?

[divinityfrompain]

A work in progress idea.

[cryptsleeper]

I think it needs to be a bit firmer.

But you're in a better space to do research, so I will let you do that.

[divinityfrompain]

Sometimes you have to take plans one step at a time. Like dragging a clown god out of the Horizon to make the Singularity stop losing its mind. And then worry about the next part from there.

Maybe we can get another god to intervene. I'll ask around, some of us have pacts with them.
