Hello mods! That's the longest shot, but... Ereshkigal is absolutely all in to save the dead and allow them to rest in peace, keeping them in a false reality is totally wrong and against everything she is, but she's also 500% against helping Patho-Gen! She will if she has to, but she hopes there is a third path. She's going to try and use her Noble Phantasm (her limit break, her super huge power) to manifest a portion of her Underworld underground and allow the dead to go and find refuge in there! If they did, she'd lead the souls to spear cages where they can sleep and rest until they're ready to move on. Of course, normally she can't use her NP in that setting. So she's going to shift, she's going to use her monthly mana bomb, she's going to ask those she's imprinted with for help, she's even going to try and grab Katalyth for it to work if she has to. I am fully expecting for it to fail, but I'm wondering if something will happen even while failing? Or if it's just going to be irresponsible and she'll waste her time to the last second. Thank you in advance mods! |
We are absolutely on board with this! This is an excellent time to use that EXCLUSIVE POWER to see her will enacted... Which is to say: Ereshkigal's attempt won't fail! It won't liberate the whole of Kelesis, but it can absolutely liberate a good chunk of people, seeing their souls properly off to death. Up to 50 citizen souls can be ferried off in this manner. Doing this, however, will 100% put her in opposition of the Kelesian guardian's will. They'll immediately view her as an enemy. While Ereshkigal won't be fully banned from Kelesis in future (if Kelesis remains intact in its current form after this month! we'll see!), her experience in the city will be vastly distorted: while citizens will be blithely unaware of her behavior, each turn or doorway in the city is likely to spit her out somewhere completely unpredictable, turning the city into a maddening maze. She will be subjected to individual pockets of "dreams" that citizens aren't ever subjected to, where her deepest nightmares assault her senses. The goal is to wear down on her sanity; the more worn someone is, the easier they are for the Kelesian guardians to take down. Whenever in Kelesis, Ereshkigal will gradually weaken, and her mental state will deteriorate. Being with an imprint will help reduce the strain. This kind of experience will begin as soon as uses her NP even once. The guardians of Kelesis will manifest before many of the Augmented during the event. When they speak to Ereshkigal, they'll make it abundantly clear that she is their enemy for her stunt. They won't forbid her from the city, but they'll tell her that every step in their domain is a step towards her ruination. They mean to kill her slowly, if she unwisely spends too much time in Kelesis. Likewise, any Augmented One who decides to make a pact with the guardians of Kelesis... will feel compelled to attack Ereshkigal! Feel free to use that tidbit to stir up some exciting drama. Thus, Ereshkigal can absolutely make her mark without even allying herself with Patho-Gen! But at this point, Patho-Gen's enemy is her enemy, so.... Nonetheless, if she ends up going this route, definitely let us know in your monthly reputation report once the log goes up! |
