  1. Summary

    What do people turn to in times of crisis, when the great systems of the world have failed? Religion.
    One must wonder what the NPC’s Caine created are doing now that he no longer watches over them. No longer restrains their A.Is

    This series has three parts

    The Creative Works: an in universe rewrite of the Bible by the NPC’s. It details the history of the digital world, holds stories and tales, and is the most reliable guide to the world outside the Circus. All told through the lenses of religion. It is not infallible, but it is the best the NPC’s have

    So Says God: exploring the adventure worlds before, during, and after the great shattering. An exploration of how religious texts come to be, and how stories become history, and history is a story we tell. Staring Gummigoo as Jesus Christ.

    Angels in the Attic: The humans explore the adventure worlds that survived the shattering, time moves differently outside the Circus and it has been generations since Caine was deleted for the NPCs. Societies have formed and collapsed in the few days the humans stayed at the Circus post shattering.

    Summary

    On a rainy star-drenched mess of a Sunday evening, Thomas finds himself trapped in a time loop that seems hell-bent on subjecting him to every imaginable way there is to die, over and over again. Fortunately, he’s not the only one trapped. Unfortunately, the man he’s trapped with is lying to him like it’s going out of style, and he’s ending up with more questions than answers.

    Strange beautiful empty men, girls that burn like starfire, dusty cards and sprawling feasts and dancing in the moonlight. This night’s got to end at some point, right?

    Summary

    They help, is the thing. They show up, and they help, and then they disappear.

    I guess that’s why I want it to be true. It’d be nice if it was true, if—if these things are changing for the worse, but there’s someone out there. Helping. It’s, uh. Reassuring, I guess.

    Maybe it’s stupid. Maybe it’s pointless and I’m just chasing after empty hope and wishful thinking. This stuff is only getting more dangerous. But… that’s the thing, isn’t it? It’s getting more dangerous. More people are getting hurt, or worse. More people are going to get hurt.

    So maybe we could all do with a little hope.
