Fortified Chambers
So, there is this thing I called Astair which seems to function independent from the Ring.
There also seem to be good reasons for it to do so, but ... in this current day and age ...
I think it's easily more of a burden. It may depend on how "cooked" you are.
I've been looking for a way to tackle the issue - for a long time, but ... it hasn't really
been a priority so far. Yesterday I came around to focus on it some more; And getting rid of
a certain aspect of it ... well, it's weird.
Now, I still have to work out the details with the ring to properly implement this. Generally
I'm looking forward to again wipe everything - or to at least clean my own slate since I may
have created a bit of a mess while playing around with it, but first I want the thing to be
quasi done. With phase 2 being on halt, I mean to say that I want a few things. Like, I want
to better understand the priesthood and the powers before writing some kind of manual on it
into the text. Also, I do kind of want to make sure that everything works - and that it works
well. In other words: I'm also open for suggestions. Like ... I think there's a problem in
that I believe that proper holy scripture is a communal work while you might be sitting there
waiting until I get better at writing text. Like I'm also really bad socially, on a professional
level. I mean, I've been interning in a cafe once, bartending, and that's like the most horrible
line of work I can imagine for myself. Customer contact certainly isn't my strong suit, so,
yea - I'm not hired for customer service here either.
I'm not sure how else to put it. I may be too unclear about it - but I ... hmm. I'm not sure
whether I'm gaslit into accepting that I have to get clear on my own - or if it's just how it's
supposed to be. But whatever. I'm already getting bad vibes ... well. So much for you then.
Anyway - I have extended the Maretriostatic categories, which seems to have helped a little.
At least it's something God seems to have been wanting, so ... and I'm not sure why it took me
so long. There is however a real mental cost associated to doing these things right by me - and
yea, maybe I really just needed an orgasm. Like seriously. It's easy with weed to connect to my
inner self and get flowing in the mindscape - while my sober mind, well, does sober things.
Anyway. I'm still doing this - and will later, if fortune allows it, import it. I mean, I don't
want this to be part of the Official Order, so, this is more of an addition to 'on Chaos and
Order' - so, "first of all", here the thing:
The Fortified Chambers
After taking three consecutive night's rests in a room, one is entitled to fortify it for
themselves. To do so, the room needs a doorframe. To fortify it, one is to draw a line (with
their finger, no paint needed) - from the topmost part of the left side of the frame (inside
the room) that they can reach, to the bottom. [locked]
I think there's maretriostatic engagement with it, hence it also comes with a God given indicator
towards its successful creation. You should feel a click - as though locking or unlocking a
thing - within yourself. If not, maybe I'm missing something.
To undo the fortification, simply do the same, but in reverse (drawing from bottom to top) - or
create a new one. [locked]
Fortification of Solace
The fortification of Solace is an addition to the Fortified Chambers, that shields the owner -
while inside the room - from Astair coming from outside the room. [locked]
To add the fortification of Solace to the Fortified Chamber, draw (with your finger, no paint
needed) a circle, clockwise, over the line that has been drawn to create the Fortification. [locked]
If it works it works, if it doesn't - I would like to know. But ... whatever.
I was under the impression then, that Astair going out is still ... fine. At least - a lot of
weird stuff seemed to be going on - which incentivizes to pronounce some kind of a warning.
A warning that shouldn't be taken too too seriously ... since ... your mental health may be
taking priority and ... maybe it's also better for ... fun stuff. But I want to forwarn you,
as to also put some focus on ... whatever. I mean, it's weird.
Anyhow - I ... came around to the idea that the best way to deal with "malicious astair" that
might be projecting a false image of me into your head is to assume that at the hart of it
there's truth; And that the only thing missing is the rest to put things into the proper
context or framing or whatever. So I did a thing to ... extend it. Not sure if this should be
"rolled out more generally" - so, for now I'll leave it at that.
