Q:
Your first, a true nature of the world.
A:
Imagine that reality is a line going from a beginning to an end. Beyond the end is yet another identical reality, and on and on and on. The same cycle repeating itself time after time. This infinite line curled into an infinite spiral with infinite realities, all identical. But in places, the fabric of reality wears thin, actions taken in one reality, alter the parts of the line in another reality. Small changes and actions in one effecting another. Spatiotemporal noise.
Q:
Your second, the nature of the Ark and the Shatter and the Eater.
A:
The Shatter is but one, though perhaps the largest of these holes in the fabric of reality. The entry point into this reality from where the Alchark entered, fleeing from the destruction brought onto their world by the Eater. The Alchark and the Eater are made of the same scientific advancements, and thus only the Alchark contains the technology necessary to interface with the Eater and bring it to an end. The Eater is merely an engine that powers the ☉, providing what it needs to provide Enlightenment.
Q:
Your third, the location of the Tower and the means of ingress.
A:
The Tower currently lies in orbit about ~16k miles above the planet Earth. Four artifacts will provide the triangulation you need to track its exact location. The Agency will have the vessel you must prepare to reach it, and the simulation will have the understanding of the Towers alchemy to let you breach it.
Q:
Your fourth, the state of your acquaintances.
A:
Your friends and enemies are scattered, hiding after further attempts by the Seekers on their lives. Alexander and Oakley are gone, Elliot remains removed from this reality, echoes of Paula were purged when magus was alerted, Francis lives hidden, alone in the dark. magus computes, the ever watching AE, searching for the remains of the Magician. Maude Sareq, masquerade, does not exist.
Interface: ☉
ORCA: Here Comes The Sun
InsaneScots: DOO DOO DOO DO
InsaneScots: ☉
Spooky: Oh no
Interface: What do you want?
Spooky: To maintain the status quo, what about you darling?
rysonbran: What do you want?
InsaneScots: I would like to not be confused for once
Interface: Answers, that can be arranged. What puzzles you?
InsaneScots: Ignore them
just_speculating: What puzzles me: who are you? where are you? why are you?
Interface: You ask the ☉ for darkness…
InsaneScots: It is hard to ask the sun to stop shining, like the winds to stop blowing
InsaneScots: it is against its nature
Interface: I am ☉
Interface: But is there no enlightenment you seek on whatever might be puzzling you?
Interface: ☉ from the darkness
InsaneScots: If I may, we are not puzzled by any one thing in specific right now, but our scope is limited. We are mostly puzzled by a lack of clarity as to the world at large and the goings on we have been caught up in"
InsaneScots: Things going on around us, the events that are coming, we barely know enough to keep up
Interface: I see you aspire to greater heights of knowledge.
Interface: Your first, a true nature of the world.
Interface: And what enlightenment for the three questions that remain?
InsaneScots: We would like for you to tell us of the The Ark and The Shatter, How they could be used to stop the Eater?
Interface: Your second, the nature of the Ark and the Shatter and the Eater.
InsaneScots: For our third we would ask about the Tower, its location and the ways that we can access it.
Interface: Your third, the location of the Tower and the means of ingress.
InsaneScots: For our fourth we would ask after our friends: Oakley, Elliot, Francis, Paula and those who aren't totally friendly with us like Alex. magus, Maude Sareq
Interface: Your fourth, the state of your acquaintances.

InsaneScots: Alex and Oakley are gone?
InsaneScots: Hidden or dead?
Interface: Enlightenment provided, the Eater must feast. The ☉ will return once the engine is fueled.
