Blood 'n' gods

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Okay, so if you are given the blood of someone from two steps higher than
you in the hierarchy, you can move up a level!

So if part of Dsiri's personal motivation in the story was to gain a soul,
then she must have meant for Able to be elevated to Overcyn from the very
beginning.
