In this case, I will gladly expend a Two of Cats in order to strengthen the barrier and stop us from all dying in case someone tries to break it.

A significant fraction of the remaining cubes split off to aggregate on the inner surface of the bubble. (8 9 of Order)

Action: New World Order: The Octolith

Introduction: Until the pitiable forces of chaos can be properly euthanized, the safety of the universe cannot be guaranteed with their constant writhing in agony. More direct measures are needed to safeguard this universe for future creations.

Methods: Swarms of cubes fly out to eight corners of the bubble where they aggregate to form immense cubes, the Monoliths. Shining rays link adjacent monoliths' faces, and bright surfaces appear inside

Results: 61±8% of attempts to meddle with the bubble were detected, and 48±5% of attempts were deflected. Of the deflected attempts, none observed (0±20%) were beneficial to their perpetraitors.

Discussion: More work will be necessary to confirm the Octolith's efficacy as a shield against hostile anti-bubble actions. While the restraint the benevolent and benign have shown with respect to the chaos problem is commendable, it is hoped that they will take a more active role in protecting the universe from internal threats such as the
Great Enemy. Gib grant plox huahuehuehue

*cold glare*
You may kindly see yourself out of the realms, Pains.

And sadly no one wants to ask Gains to be here as well and yet here we are, and furthermore you seem to be the only one trying to perform a vitriolic move, all I see is your action and intent of trying to feel aplomb, with your intentions your desire to acclaim that emotion will be eternal


The values of the end are always ever prevalent, and they must all exist. A new rule of physics needs to be created to go by this creed, and the adornment of the values of entropy shall exist for all things of existence. The universe’s big bang shall be concluded with a heat death, the rise of sapience shall end with its betrayal of ill-gotten gains, and all good things must come to and. The order of entropy is installed, eventually no matter how little or gradual for they will slowly reach their state of disorder and conclusion must arrive anew. To many mortals they may never notice this rule in effect, as it may take hundreds to quadrillions of years, but it’s always existing. But always forgotten...

Create the laws of entropy, that everything great will decline to disorder, the existence of an end shall always exist in the horizon

"Why are you putting that box inside our bubble, Order? We lose space this way, and it seems... inelegant. What will the kittens think when they learn the effective border is just an artificial shell inside the true border?"

"Observation: The bubble is too delicate to be tampered with by these...'kittens.' Rendering 32.5% of the immense universe inaccessible is a small price to pay for safety."

Whilst the other entities were conversing, the maroon specks seemed to slow in their movements, almost to a stop.

It appeared the specks were too lazy to have anything to add to the conversation.

The shifting panoply of bubbles sense the bigger bubble. They see the works arrayed to fortify it, lest it burst. With an amused jig and a 9 they decide to make it their home. First, they cause the bubble to grow outward. When the bubble is sufficiently thick, they enter it and take away the excess bubble, leaving only enough untouched to form the necessary pillars and supports to keep it from collapsing, and one "gate" in the inner ring where the bubble is still thick enough to enter or exit. They decorate the new home with the excess and use what's left to fortify the outer ring.

I believe everyone has posted. If anyone wants to do last-minute edits or possibly bid for ascendancy, now's the time.
Never mind, Nature didn't act yet. Now's still the time to do those things, but we're still waiting on Madman as well. :P

Action: The Emperor, (10 of Chivalry)

Introduction: The Ascendant King, Chivalry, must Rise to power with there own palace..

Methods: The center most cube is shifted and changed by the will of Chivalry, and the barrier between dimensions is thread-thin here.

Results:A great palace in the name of Chivalry is made, where all ten forces can gather for some reason as well. Chivalry Ascends with this Castle being the focal point of their ascension.

Discussion: I am the king, it is only reasonable.

Chivalry, deciding that it is good to be king, ascends.


Sitting on the metaphorical Iron throne, IT IS CREATED. At the center of the universe, a throne room, its palace and its accompanying support is made. This throne and its castle shifts, changes towards what its viewers perceive as luxurious (gods merely perceive its true form as a godly structure.). Great feast halls and immense rooms are standard across all views, but its basic lay out rarely shifts. The throne rooms castle and palace is immense, imaginably large and the size of a world, for in some respects, it is one. UIntil it gets many mortal viewers to cement its look, it will forever stay shifting.

Its structure is similiar to that of a 9 spoke wheel, with each end of the spoke connecting to its neighbor, and being home to a large tower, each pertaining to a Force. The center of the wheel is the great palace, which the Ascended spirit will hold its domain in the unnamed palace world.


Ascend with 10 of Chivalry
Build as of yet unnamed castle for 9 of Chivalry


Is there anything stopping us from both ascending and doing an action?

If you mean "with the same card", yes. The unit of power bid for ascendancy is lost. You also regain it a turn later than you normally would.

As many as you have power to spend on it.

9 of error 404: essence not found

Everything in the universe is something at its core, everything has an Essence, a Nature, and everything can be identified by this Nature. It doesn't mold or shape, merely describe. Yet these descriptions have power, and any who knows of these Essences, these names of things, gains power over them proportional to their understanding. Natures are grouped into Spheres, defined by the fundamental forces of the world. These Spheres wax and wane with the forces. When Chaos is strong, the creations of Order weaken. Similarly space matters as well, where one is strong, all others' creations are slightly weaker.

Seven of Cats: All forces are different, but none are true anathema. Chaos and Order are distinct concepts, but certainly not opposites. After all, Life itself is a form of ordered chaos, a perfectly ticking machine of madly combined components, only working thanks to the law of averages. From this, we can clearly see that a mixture of Order and Chaos is a beneficial arrangement, despite the former's rambling about "the Great Enemy". As such this action amounts to... forcefully batting the two forces together and seeing what we get.
