Message sent by: @Anemic_Vampire

Let the experiment resume.

……….……………………………………………………………………………………

The questions filled my head. Words intruded in on my vision, forming a tower. The words read: “Remember the diary? Who is Aiden?” More questions, were they here to offer me clemency or damnation?

Who is Aiden? Aiden is someone I know, I think? Why do they matter? What is his full name? Aiden Chzen that name fell into my ears. Something about the name filled my empty soul.

Who was Aiden Chzen? I should know I feel that in my heart, yet my mind was empty. The contradiction filled me with a parade of anxiety. If this continued my nameless self would collapse into nothing, nowhere to be seen or found. Was I Aiden Chzen?

My heart beat like a speeding car in rebellion to my relatively calm mind. Yet the panic caught up, as if my heart was driving the tandem bike of my soul. Aiden Chezen, that was the result of the second question. I looked at the questions that formed that tower in my vision.

Remember the diary? I never wrote a diary or journal, my heart and mind agree on this. Finally a thing as clear as glass that I can believe. So what diary? My heart pointed at Aiden Chzen. Aiden’s Diary? No, that was incorrect. Aiden’s Journal? That was closer. Aiden’s Secret Journal? No. Aiden’s Dream Journal? Yes, my heart beat slowed as everywhere around me seemed to return to its former glory.

The cow of the sky mooed in delight, and the one of the earth grumbled in disappointment. Why was Aiden’s Dream Journal important? If the Dream Journal was written by Aiden, then it could not have been written by me.

A pustulant odor emitted from the earth. Who was I, why was Aiden Chzen important if that was not me? Were they a friend? No, I think I was closer to them, but not as close as lovers. Family then? I §§§§§§ Chzen. §§§§§§? What is that, the name is on the tip of my tongue.

“Scrambler of Thought and Logic, you are incorrect, your name is that of the Great Lord of Dreams, Gabd’oth.” The cow of the earth spoke up hurriedly.

“Great Master of the Unnatural Dialectic! Continue on this train of thought of yours, your name remains unchanged but has sublimated. Ignore the lies of the earth. You are §§§§§§ Chzen. Write your name across the heavens!” The cow that was the sky jumped in joy.

Why can’t I say §§§§§§? What is that name? It is on the tip of my tongue, yet it falls through my fingers like watery mayonnaise.

……..………………………………………………………………………………………

That will do for today's update. You have approximately 2 days to submit your message and your 20 words. You have approximately 2 days before the next update.

Ripjaw is displeased

I mistook it a 5 letters word, so maybe it's actually still Aiden. Literally what's it? :sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely: Gaiden? Aidens?
If you want to solve this, I recommend you reread/skim the prior chapters.

@ElijahRyne Did we manage to kill the subject, or has the apprentice ran off?
The apprentice is experiencing writers, or translation, block. Soul form is hard to describe as a language you both create and reveal what was already made at the same time. The next update will be the last. Expect it between now and the 12th.

Memo from Lead Experimentor:





I regret to inform you that this will be the last update. My apprentice wants to work on other things, and we are reaching a stopping point for the experiment. Nonetheless for your patience I will have my apprentice answer any questions you have about this experiment if you ask. There is nothing that cannot be asked, within reason, and so long as my apprentice or I know the answer you will receive it.





You generators submitted 16 words. Since this will be the last update there will be no need to bring this word count up to 20. The following are your submitted words and message, and who submitted them and how many.





Words submitted: Ripjaw, Displeased, Flatulance, Begets, Pestilence, Happy, Snow, Angel, Gift, Miracle, Liquidation, Obscure, Rise, Hellscape, Haven, Hungry.





Words submitted by: @laum-hy 3, @JayMark 3, @Anemic_Vampire 5, @Hoshino 5.





Message sent: Awaken, Marren. Your name is Morana.





Message sent by: @Arkus86


Let the experiment resume.


…………..………………………………………………………………





“Marren! My name is Marren Chzen!” As my words fell, my jaw followed it felt as if it was violently ripped off.. The cows of the sky and earth fused together and spoke.





“Awaken, Marren. Your name is Morana. You have given up this reality in this synthesis, continue your sleepless wandering elsewhere. GABD’OTH is dead, as dead as the concept of dreams can be, that is. You could have taken its place, but like your brother you failed.” As the cow spoke it transformed into a foul smelling figure. It was John, he looked ill and displeased.





Something walked out of John’s body, it looked happy. It was not human, plant, or animal, yet it walked. It reached out a few of its hands to me and dragged me. I floated through the hellscapes of the myriads of realms. The thing left me in an empty haven. Obscured by the gift of nothingness.





…..………………………………………………………………………





The body of Marren Chzen was found in an abandoned building on January 12th, 2026. He died 6 days earlier from hunger. When his body was found, his jaw was missing and looked as if it had been forcibly removed. It looked like he had received that injury, according to the forensic examiner, 7 days before he was found. By some miracle of damnation, he did not die of the injury. Instead he starved to death. No, not dehydration, blood loss or anything of the sort.





Marren Chzen had been missing for two months before he was found. The last person known to have seen him was Henry Xanth, a classmate of his.
