She gestured broadly at the chaotic environnt around them.
"However, if you can learn how to properly manipulate existence, if you can comprehend its fundantal code and understand how everything moves together in concert, how all forces flow together in patterns, you would have a considerably easier ti navigating challenges."
Her voice beca more intense.
"When everything seems completely blocked off and impossible to overco, you will find pathways revealing themselves if you know how to look properly. These opportunities will not simply manifest automatically. You will have to actively unlock all of this for yourself through effort and understanding."
She raised one hand with emphasis.
"You simply need to learn the natural flow of existence and then develop the skill to steer that flow toward outcos favorable to you. Principles of Existence will significantly help you with this process. You are essentially being given access to the underlying structure of existence laid out in comprehensible codes that you can invest your Civilizational Authority into."
Her expression beca more serious.
"This will allow you to directly find functional paths forward when it seems like there are no other viable options remaining. You will never truly know with certainty what will happen in existence ahead of ti. But that fundantal uncertainty is part of the mystery and challenge."
She looked directly into his eyes.
"I do not know what will ultimately happen. Even THE Creature does not know with absolute certainty what will unfold. But eventually existence will sort itself out through natural processes. Eventually everything reaches so form of equilibrium or resolution."
BOOM!
After such heavy words, THE Living Origin shook her head and looked at Noah with sothing resembling approval mixed with concern.
"Good luck," she said simply. "Our Origins have now shared a path in existence. This connection can never be completely broken. If our Origins should et again in circumstances that are not detrintal to your survival, you will see again. If you do not..."
She did not finish articulating her last conditional statent. Noah looked at her and realized with sudden understanding that she was already half-faded from this reality.
She had not asked him which specific ti period he originated from. Nor had she inquired about what happened in the future tiline he ca from. As if to her perspective, none of those details mattered or would change whatever her current plans and objectives were.
He thought briefly of the Collapsed Civilization of Origin that existed in his current era. He looked at her fading figure and spoke words carefully chosen.
"Your Origin always shone brilliantly," he said with asured sincerity. "Even now, your Origin shines with undimd radiance."
The words did not reveal excessive information. They simply let her know that her Origin’s brilliance continued forward through ti.
After all, had he not obtained the Living Existential Authority of Origin in his own era? Even after this entity standing before him would be collapsed in the future, her fundantal brilliance would not completely fade into nothing.
And since Primordial Civilizations were unfathomably difficult to permanently collapse, there always existed possibility to eventually restore this entity. He just had to ensure that he survived The Fallout himself first, and subsequently whatever additional horrors would arrive thereafter.
Because even as he accomplished all of this temporal travel and growth, he understood and realized with clarity that The Fallout was rely the first of many catastrophic challenges he would eventually have to navigate.
Surviving The Fallout ant then existing in a drastically altered landscape where all of the terrifying Civilizations currently contained within THE Loom would suddenly be free to act without restraint.
This possibility in itself represented another terrifying thought and future to contemplate. But he would simply approach it one step at a ti with thodical planning.
If he was not successful in surviving The Fallout, then future complications would not even beco relevant concerns.
These thoughts ca and went rapidly as after he spoke his carefully asured words, he actually observed the figure of THE Living Origin smile lightly with what appeared to be genuine appreciation before she nodded with acknowledgnt.
And then she disappeared completely in the next mont.
She had departed after abandoning them in one of the most dangerous places in the entire Infinite Unfurling.
All for the explicit purpose and sake of forcing them to struggle and grow through adversity.
Lumivara imdiately ca toward Noah and hugged his arm protectively as she looked around their environnt with visible caution and concern.
As for Noah himself, his existence was still acclimating to the new state of Pre-THE. But the cascade of benefits was far from completely finished manifesting.
Because his Way and his Civilization were fundantally one and the sa entity. With his Way having advanced so trendously, his Civilization had also necessarily advanced trendously in parallel.
But when it ca to manifestations of his Civilization’s growth, there remained only the question of precisely when he wished to receive and process this accumulated advancent.
Which was why at this particular mont, a new prompt appeared before his vision with critical timing.
|Quintessential waves of Effort and Harvest have been kept carefully restrained before flooding the foundations of your Civilization.|
|Your advancent to the distinction of a Pre-THE Existence has exponentially multiplied the potency of accumulated Harvest.|
| Would you like to receive all accumulated and amplified Harvest imdiately, or delay reception until the end of the Temporal Traversal?|
|Warning: Imdiate reception will cause dramatic power escalation across your entire Civilization.|
|Current Harvest Multiplier: 847x baseline due to Pre-THE elevation.|
A straightforward question ca regarding the timing of harvests.
And when it ca to making this decision, the answer was unfathomably clear to Noah without hesitation.
His people were actively struggling in the current era. His Civilization was under coordinated attack from multiple hostile forces.
So let it advance without further delay. Let the harvest flow imdiately to those who needed it most.
BOOM!
The mont his intention crystallized with absolute conviction, reality itself responded to accommodate his will.
The dams holding back accumulated power shattered completely.
And the harvest began flowing forward through ti itself toward his Civilization.
